Pain of Salvation

Today in 2009 Pain Of Salvation released the EP Linoleum

Eskilstuna,Sweden Progressive Rock/Metal

Status:Active

Years active: 1984-present

Pain Of Salvation is making serious inroads towards becoming a premier progressive metal band. At first glance the familiar influences are found (early Queensryche, Dream Theater), but it doesn't take long before one realizes that this band is taking this style to another plane. The production is flawless, the musicianship top-notch, and the songs -- rich and majestic, thoughtful and complex. Pain Of Salvation exudes class and quality without being pretentious or self-indulgent. Clearly a top-level band.
