Pain

for a number of years, both as producer extraordinaire and as leader of the death metal group Hypocrisy. Pain is his solo outlet, delving into the world of techno/industrial metal, with the earlier albums more starkly industrial and the later material such as Dancing With The Dead more of a techno-flavored metal album (emphasis on "metal", as the techno influences are slight). clean, yet forceful vocal style, and he handles the other instruments quite effectively -- really, with a pedigree such as his, quality is to be expected, and he delivers. This may not be for diehard Hypocrisy fans (though, really, the style here isn't a million miles from his main band, though death metal this is definitely not), but those into the techno/industrial side of metal will take to this.

Upcoming album: I Am, release date May 17, 2024.
