PAIN CONFESSOR Parts Ways With Label, Begins Work On New Material

June 9, 2008

Finnish metallers PAIN CONFESSOR have issued the following update:

"Yep, we are still here. Been a long time since we have had anything noteworthy going on to report here. So, what's up? What's happened during our silent existence?

"Let's see Well, the Johanna Kustannus/Megamania deal was discontinued. Nothing really shocking there, that deal was coming to an end anyway so we embraced the departure as an opportunity to review our situation and rally our forces, forge new plans of attack and eventually strike with new found vigor when the time was right.

"We stole a good deal of personal time for ourselves and to do stuff with our families and friends, to rest and gather our thoughts until we felt the urge to get back in the saddle and grind out some tunes. That urge slowly took us by the balls and dragged us one by one back to our rehearsal space to get a feel for things. Suddenly we had a song recorded and damn it, that shit worked.

"So here we are, writing stuff, playing metal and planning our next attack. When, where, with whom and by what means? You will see. And hear."

PAIN CONFESSOR's third album, "Purgatory of the Second Sun", entered the Finnish chart at position No. 15 back in March 2007.

"Purgatory of the Second Sun" was recorded at Fantom studio and was previously described by the band as "raw and furious."

PAIN CONFESSOR's "Ne Plus Ultra" single entered the Finnish national chart at position No. 1. In addition to the title cut, the single included a cover of SURVIVOR's "Eye of the Tiger", which had "gone through a serious metal facelift," according to the group. A video for "Ne Plus Ultra" was shot by Vasara Films and can be viewed below.
