1. Sweden’s Pain is an industrial metal band. The band started out as a hobby project for Hypocrisy front man Peter Tägtgren, whose idea was to fuse metal with electronic influences. Tägtgren is the only official member. Pain’s self titled debut was released in 1996, and since, Pain has released 8 albums and 2 DVDs
“MUSIC IS everything to me. I’ve been through two divorces and a whole world of shit because of music but still it is the most important thing in the world to me. I’d rather have music than anything else.”
So speaks 36-year-old Peter Tägtgren, musician, producer and creative brain behind Pain. His has been a life immersed in music, in pushing boundaries, and taking ideas to both their logical and illogical extremes. It’s been a career that has involved fronting bands – notably Hypocrisy, and now Pain – or shaping their sounds – as he has done with Celtic Frost, Children Of Bodom, Dimmu Borgir and Immortal, among others. It’s a calling that has made him one of Sweden’s most respected musicians and producers. But, with Pain’s new album ‘Psalms Of Extinction’, he now wants to take things one step further. Now, in his own words, he’s ready to make his band Pain, “the biggest fucking band in the genre. I want this to be huge on a worldwide scale.”
TÄGTGREN’S CAREER began in Hypocrisy, the atmospheric death metal band that he created, fronted and led. “But, in 1996,” Tägtgren says, “I realised I wanted to write some more heavy metal based music. I didn’t want to change Hypocrisy because I didn’t think that band had finished developing in its own genre. I really wanted to allow that to happen but I also wanted to experiment with other sounds. That’s why I set up Pain.”

2. Forming in 1994, the punk rock band is a musical ensemble comprised of seven members that originated in Tuscaloosa, Alabama. Their song "Jabberjaw" was commissioned for Cartoon Network's Adult Swim as a short music video placed into the ad rotation.
Pain's sound is sometimes confused with ska/ska-punk, due to similarities in instrumentation and similar sensibilities to third-wave ska-punk bands, but it cannot be accurately described as ska since it does not utilize the ska beat. The band includes a trumpet, trombone, and saxophone, which are often found in ska bands, but the band members have stated numerous times that they are not a ska band -- in fact they have claimed that they do not like the ska genre. The band is perhaps best defined by their fast-paced lyrics and clever rhythm schemes, both instrumental and spoken. Pain's lyrics are often humorous, touching lightly upon such subjects as Dungeons and Dragons as well as Greek and Arthurian legends, often creating entire plots and stories about fictional characters.
Many of their songs are nostalgic and humorous, while others have philosophic undertones. Despite these subtleties, they maintain a frenzied, bouncy sound and an ironic sense of humor which sets them apart from the mainstream scene.
In mid-2009, the band released the DVD retrospective "In a Band," chronicling the band's 7-year career with over 5 hours of video, audio, and photo content.

Let Me Out
Pain Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I need to come up for air
The monster's in my head, they won't leave me be
I told them thousand times, just stay away from me
A constant battle within, a battle I can't win
It triggers the fear of failure
Stereotype society you better think like others think
Remote control
World turns dead right before me
I can't hide in the past, I need to break away from me
Life burns black, no sanctuary
I did my time so let me out
Like a broken record, it repeats itself
Like a wheel.. and round and round and round it goes
It's like we're on a path, on a path to nowhere
Running out of time, running out of passion
Once created times, now a storm of nails
Razor sharp and it won't stop yet
World turns dead right before me
I can't hide in the past, I need to break away from me
Life burns black, no sanctuary
I did my time so let me out
Running out of ways to run, it's a dead end street
Been taking all the turns... they all turn right back to me
World turns dead right before me
I can't hide in the past, I need to break away from me
Life burns black, no sanctuary
I did my time so let me out
The song "Let Me Out" by Pain is about feeling trapped and suffocated by one's own thoughts and struggles. The lyrics suggest that the singer is battling with their own inner demons and fears, while also feeling pressure from society to conform to certain standards. The opening lines of the song, "I cannot breathe suffocating slow, I need to come up for air," convey a sense of desperation and the need for escape. The singer is pleading to be released from their own fears and doubts, to be set free from the constant battle within.
The chorus provides a sense of urgency, with the repeated plea of "Let me out." The lyrics suggest that the singer feels like they have been serving a sentence and that it's time to break free. However, despite trying different paths and taking turns, they keep ending up back where they started, feeling trapped and hopeless. The harsh imagery of a "storm of nails" and "razor sharp" elements emphasizes the painful and suffocating nature of these feelings.
Overall, the song conveys a sense of struggle and desperation, but it also suggests that there is hope for finding a way out of the darkness. The repeated plea to be released from these struggles suggests that the singer is reaching a breaking point and needs to take action to overcome them.
