Today PAIN release their new single ‚Push The Pusher‚. Demonstrating their ability to blend electro grooves with fist-pumping rock, this track is presented with a stunning clip made by a dedicated video team, Midjourney and AI tools. All images in the video are generated by Ai and animated by two artists, Dmitry Alekseev and Sergey Kozlov, who created this special video in 2,5 months. The creators worked with a unique method, and developed this masterpiece for ‚Push The Pusher‚.
PAIN are back and prove to be more innovative, entertaining and daring than ever before. The new album I Am, will be released on May 17th via Nuclear Blast Records.
Peter Tägtgren comments:
„Push The Pusher was the first song I started working on after PIMH. I was hungry for distortion and stomp, to create an industrial feeling again. Lyric wise it’s really about me, as I’ve heard more then half of my life..to grow up.“
The video premiere for ‚Push The Pusher‚ is on April 12 at 19.00 CET. Follow this link to watch the premiere: https://nblast.de/Pain-PTP-YT

About PAIN:
It’s 2021 and a pandemic is strangling the world – and no one seems to be having fun. Seemingly tireless music freak Peter Tägtgren couldn’t care less as he hits the jackpot with – pardon the harsh language – a fucking catchy… well, party anthem. We are of course talking about the song ‘Party in My Head’ by Tägtgren’s synth-infused metal project PAIN.
„I don’t really know what it is about ‘Party in My Head’ that made – still makes – people go crazy for it… But what I do know for sure is that the song has already been enjoyed millions and millions of times. The numbers are pretty crazy! Of course, PAIN is no stranger to writing danceable and catchy, albeit metallic shit… It’s always been in the DNA of this project. But let’s face it: if the world really needs ‚party anthems‘ from a cynical geezer like me, something’s seriously wrong“, Peter laughs.
Our beloved planet may be screwed, but there still doesn’t seem to be much wrong in PAIN’s world as 2024 ticks fast on the calendar. There simply can’t be, because PAIN’s eagerly awaited new studio album ‚I Am‘ is soon here – yes, after eight years of devoted waiting.
The powerful-sounding I Am is truly a versatile – if not the most versatile – musical missile in PAIN’s rich discography. The new songs go everywhere with heavy industrial riffs, haunting melancholic vibes and groove-filled rhythms – without forgetting surprises, of course. „There’s no boundaries with PAIN. I just get an interesting idea for a song and along the way it can turn into anything. Sometimes I also like to deliberately surprise people by following an exciting musical path where unexpected things happen“, Peter describes.
“‘I Am’ is also more of a family affair than ever before. My son Sebastian – also a PAIN drummer – wrote the music of ‘Revolution’ and ‘Don’t Wake the Dead’. These absorbing songs add width to an already versatile album. All in all, completing “I Am” required a lot of composing, writing, thinking, experimenting, doing and re-doing. It was a long and sometimes challenging process, but never painful!“
