PAIN Will Not Tour Europe With PARADISE LOST

July 24, 2007

PAIN, the Swedish band featuring HYPOCRISY mainman Peter Tägtgren, has issued the following update:

"We're having a blast doing all the festivals, the response has been great and there's been a lot of partying.

"There seems to have been a big mix-up regarding the PARADISE LOST tour. So, just to clear up any confusion, PAIN won't be part of that tour. We were trying to get on it, but in the end it just didn't work out.

"So note that any promotion you see where PAIN is listed as main support is false... no business like show business! However, we are working on setting up our own European tour for the fall. So hope to see ya all soon, and cheers!"

Upcoming PAIN shows:

Jul. 27 - Pitea Dansar & Ler - Pitea, Sweden
Aug. 10 - Brutal Assaul Festival - Jaromer, Czech Republic
Aug. 11 – M'era Luna Festival – Hildesheim, Germany
Aug. 18 - Summer Breeze Festival - Dinkelsbühl, Germany
Aug. 31 - Rock The Lake Festival - Carinthia, Austria

PAIN's fifth full-length album, "Psalms of Extinction", entered the national chart in the band's home country at position No. 21.

IN FLAMES bassist Peter Iwers makes a guest appearance on two songs on "Psalms of Extinction". A video clip of PAIN performing the track "Zombie Slam" on the Swedish morning show "Nyhetsmorgon" on TV4 on April 17 has been posted online at this location.

PAIN's video for the track "Zombie Slam" has been posted online at this location. The clip was shot late February in Los Angeles by Ralf Strathmann. Ralf previously worked as a director for artists like CHILDREN OF BODOM, APOCALYPTICA and SOILWORK. He is also a photographer for such bands as H.I.M., AEROSMITH and BLINK 182, to name but a few.
