July 24, 2012

Swedish industrial metallers PAIN have issued the following update:

"Great news for those of you who haven't had the chance to see PAIN live during the 'You Only Live Twice' tour that started in October 2011. We've recorded the whole final show of the first leg at Debaser Medis in Stockholm last November and parts of the show at the Masters Of Rock festival this July which will be released on a DVD later this year together with tons of crazy backstage and 'behind-the-scenes' material! Stay tuned for the release date!!! Also, we've been confirmed to once again support our friends in NIGHTWISH on their forthcoming 'Imaginaerum' U.K. Tour 2012! Four shows are booked in early November just before the start of 'Into Darkness 2012' that we do together with MOONSPELL, SWALLOW THE SUN, LAKE OF TEARS, and SCAR OF THE SUN. See you on the road!"

We also gonna do some inflatable stuff with our Painhead. Its gonna be our Eddie, like IRON MAIDEN has it."

On the topic of the CD's title, Tägtgren stated, "[The title] has nothing to do with James Bond. I am sure I will hear this for the rest of my life! The title song is mainly about people struggling. Don't you wish you had another chance? Don't you wanna live twice? Like you're always jealous of other people. How good their life is or they won on lotto or anything.
