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.

Nothing
Pain Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
The Grass is always greener on the other side
Fear of never having enough, dreams that turns into rust
sometimes it's better to leave things alone
the road to success is hard and cold
I'm turning into something I don't wanna be
I've got a feeling that something is changing me
I can not let it all slip away
I don't wanna be nothing
Time is ticking, I feel stranded
I don't wanna be nothing
Make it go away
Fighting the battle that's growing within
It doesn't matter if I loose or win
its getting to the point where I can't get away
I can not let it all slip away
It's driving me insane
I don't wanna be nothing
Time is ticking, I feel stranded
I don't wanna be nothing
make it go away
I don't wanna be nothing
Hate is growing inside of me
I don't wanna be nothing
I'm taking back what used to be mine
I can't believe my luck is bleeding
My demons refuse to let me go
The light in the tunnel I see is fading
My fire of life is burning low
So low
I don't wanna be nothing
Time is ticking, I feel stranded
I don't wanna be nothing
Make it go away
I don't wanna be nothing
Hate is growing inside of me
I don't wanna be nothing
I'm taking back what used to be mine
I don't wanna be nothing
Take me from this hell I'm in
I don't wanna be nothing
My whole life I've been the only enemy
I don't wanna be nothing
Hate is growing inside of me
I don't wanna be nothing
I'm taking back what used to be mine
The lyrics to Pain's song Nothing delve into the theme of dissatisfaction and the struggle to find meaning and purpose in life. The first verse addresses the common feeling of never being satisfied with what one has and always craving for something more - the grass always seems greener on the other side. The fear of never having enough and the dreams that eventually turn to rust hint at the fleeting nature of success and how it can be so easily lost. The singer, therefore, contemplates that sometimes it's better to leave things as they are rather than always striving for more. The road to success itself is hard and cold, and the singer realizes that he is turning into something he doesn't want to be. He feels that something is changing him, and he is scared of letting it all slip away. This thought is driving him insane, and he is determined to fight it.
The chorus reinforces the singer's fear of becoming nothing and the urgency he feels to do something about it. The ticking clock creates a sense of urgency that amplifies this fear. The line "Make it go away" shows how desperate he is to get rid of these feelings and turn back the clock.
The second verse talks about the internal battle going on within the singer. It seems like he is fighting against himself as he is aware that it doesn't matter if he wins or loses. The point is that this battle is getting intense and he can't seem to get away from it. The line "Taking back what used to be mine" could suggest that he was once happy and fulfilled, but he has lost that feeling, and he needs to find it again. There is a sense of anger and frustration as he hates what he is becoming, and he is determined to come out on top.
Overall, the lyrics describe the struggles of an individual who is worried about losing their sense of self while trying to achieve success. The fear of becoming nothing is a common one, but it can be deadly if one gets consumed by it. The singer is aware of this and is fighting hard to take back what used to be theirs.

Underrated artist. Much love for Peter. I am more than happy that he's relevant and in Lindemann's project. I just hope he'll get more screentime in the future.

I listening to this when I was young and I was depressed. It helped me a lot, like lots of Pain songs. Thanks Peter :)

Rediscovering Peters music 4/5 years after first falling in love with it, it's incredible, I feel the same visceral reaction now as before. I hope he keeps producing for years to come
