Finnish gothic metal band FOR MY PAIN… announced their comeback in December 2023, exactly 20 years after their debut album. During the dark never-ending winter, the band have been working on new music and the first single, “Recoil Into Darkness,” will be released on April 12th, 2024. Accompanied by an official lyric video, the single will be a natural extension of FOR MY PAIN…’s repertoire, marrying a familiar sorrowful gothic metal sound with two decades’ worth of new creative inspiration.
The debut album “Fallen” was released worldwide in 2003 by Spinefarm Records/Universal Music. Catchy songs and enchanting melodies earned the band remarkable attention all over the metal scene and stole the dark hearts of gothic metal fans. A year after the debut, the “Killing Romance” EP was released, including three new songs. This remained as the final release and the band ceased activity in 2005.
This reunion will not only bring new music, but touring plans will also follow. The official comeback show is slated for May 3rd, 2024, at Kantakrouvi in Oulu, Finland.
