Still Independent.

For most of the 1990’s, Pain recorded and toured throughout the United States. In an era dominated by corporate punk rock, wherein “alternative music” became just another major label genre, Pain remained fiercely independent. Opting to take complete control over their own recordings, they were determined to only work with independent and fair-minded studios, artists, booking agents, publicists, and labels, maintaining an authentic devotion to the DIY ethic.

In the spirit of that, as music has shifted to streaming platforms and as artists have been paid less and less for those streams, Pain has also been committed to the ownership of music and strives to keep their entire catalog in print and available on CD and vinyl.
