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.

Zombie Slam
Pain Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
'Round the corner of your mind
Oh... your funeral has just begun
Buried alive, it will be over in no time
The date is set for tonight
VIP at the dead man's ball
Come and die with the zombies in the moonlight
You got to slam with the dead and let it go now
See a thousand hallowed eyes stare into the night
The sun goes down and the dead head minds,
They start to resurrect
Under the velvet sky and thirsty for your flesh
Steals your soul and you will lose control
And turns your tears into dust
You're fool that will never learn
Play with fire and you will get your fingers burned
Come and die with the zombies in the moonlight
They become alive when you die, you cannot fool them
You got to slam with the dead and let it go now
See a thousand hallowed eyes stare into the night
It's getting dark so prepare to die
They're coming after you
It's getting dark and you can't get away
They're coming after you
Come and die with the zombies in the moonlight
They become alive when you die, you cannot fool them
You got to slam with the dead and let it go now
See a thousand hallowed eyes stare into the night
The song "Zombie Slam" by Pain is a dark and eerie narrative about the impending danger and imminent death of the singer. The lyrics describe a force or entity that is crawling in the corners of the singer's mind and will soon cause their demise. The funeral, which is the result of this evil force, has already begun, and the singer is buried alive, which means that their time has run out. The lyrics describe this event as being over quickly, as if life is fragile and fleeting.
The song then goes on to describe a dance with death, a party with the zombies, whose eyes are staring into the night. The lyrics suggest that the zombies become alive when someone else dies, and one cannot fool them. At this point, the singer is encouraged to "slam with the dead," and let go, an act that may indicate acceptance of death or the dance with the undead.
The lyrics continue to describe a scene of darkness and resurrection, where the undead desire the flesh of the living. The song ends on a note of helplessness, where the singer cannot escape the impending doom they are facing. "Zombie Slam" is a song that brings out the macabre and offers a rare glimpse into the world of the undead, a world where life is no longer valued.
