PainKiller :  The Equinox
Cat. # 9319
Released Feb 2025
US Price $19.00
 
“The Equinox” is the exciting follow-up to PainKiller’s acclaimed 2024 release “Samsara,” and this time around there is greater variety and flexibility in their approach. Six tracks of various feels and tempi are performed with trademark Painkiller intensity, with jazz, metal, noise, grindcore, techno, and more coming together into the PainKiller gristmill. Inspired by the magickal procedures of Aleister Crowley, this new recording is filled with great melodic, rhythmic, and textural invention. Almost orchestral in its layered complexity, “The Equinox” is an exhilarating masterwork from three radical and uncompromising forces of nature.
