Biography:
Band Of Pain began as a side project of Splintered, the
band which included Steve Pittis. After several vinyl and CD releases,
and two John Peel sessions, Steve felt it was time to break away. Before
long, Band Of Pain became the main concern, and Splintered split at the
end of 1996. Since then Band Of Pain has released numerous records and
CD's. The most recent of these is the CD “¿Que Amiga?”
on Cold Spring Records. This CD was listed as one of the Albums of the
Year by Terrorizer magazine (9/10). It was the follow up release to the
soundtrack to controversial film director, Nigel Wingrove's movie "Sacred
Flesh" (CSR33CD).
Work on the sixth full-length release has commenced, and will be released
by Cold Spring in 2008. |
