About Me |

| ============================================================
====Painstruck was born in August of 1997. Arising from a very assorted musical scene, the band played under the name of Breed-Machine until changing completely their musical structure. As founding members were Nuno Loureiro (Lead Guitar and Vocals) and Paulo Lafaia (Drums). The Band is now complete with Raúl Vicente on Bass.
They immediately started working in a group of songs that would succeed in describing ideals and emotions. Played some gigs, and in the last two weeks of December the first, homonym and single demo-tape ever was recorded, released in 1998 and produced by Nuno Loureiro, in Painstruck´s rehearsal room.
1999 started very well. various gigs took place and at one point in April, was the time for "Aggressive Ways to Pacify" to take form through the hands of Luis Barros in his Rec'N'Roll studios. Then came the signing of a record deal with Portuguese Paranoid Records. "Aggressive ways to pacify" was , of course, the first, and the launch party achieved epic proportions when the band played a set of two-and-a-half hours of their own originals plus twenty-one metal classics from Cannibal Corpse, Wasp, C.O.C., Pantera, Crowbar, Black Sabbath, etc... and inviting several other guests to perform alongside of them. All of this was a first in Portuguese lands! They toured Portugal extensively. While doing it also managed to play in Vigo (Spain) and an amazing two date set with the Biohazard! On the summer of 2002 an invitation was received to play on Portugal's heaviest summer festival, Ermal, in the same day as names like Slipknot and Dimmu Borgir, John Spencer blues explosion,, etc. That year, the album recorded sales in Portugal that toped all other Portuguese bands
At the time, the second album which was produced on Floyd Studios in Lisbon by Nuno Loureiro in March of 2002, was already finished to be released in October. "A Whole new perception" was out one year from the release of the first CD, and it wasn't easy for the band with a busy schedule to write it. But it came out with all the ideas in place, powerful, aggressive and bursting with emotion. Painstruck´s masterpiece to aggression. And what better way to show everyone the well oiled engine Painstruck is than a two night set with Stone Sour! A friend of the band captured the scenes and compiled the footage in a video for “In us you live”. The video played on through an entire year in “Sol Musica” TV station. They also had the honour to be the first band to be invited to the 2003 and 2005's Ermal edition with the likes of Morbid Angel, Entombed Clawfinger, Unleashed, etc.. Also managed to play as support act for Born From Pain.
At the moment Painstruck is focusing on preparing the successor of "A Whole new perception".
Since the Band’s fans are their prime concern, on the 25th of December 2004 a new single “Foaming at the mouth” was put on the Band’s site www.Painstruck.net for download. Of course, this single is a preview for an upcoming album. The “Foaming at the mouth tour” 30 shows took the Portuguese fury to a new height of expectation, also landing a three videos shoot for SMS aired in Portuguese television. During the course of 2005 and along the several concerts the Band has tested a group of news songs and the response has been beyond expectations!
Early in 2006 Painstruck opened for metal giants Testament to a packed audience having mega reviews from fans and media alike. After that, headlined two big “Altatensão” festivals. The new “The Scalpel E.P.”, released on the 23rd of June was the Bands return to the releases and set the pace for the new album soon to follow. The E.P. is also a tribute to the fans, old and new, that have supported Painstruck throughout the years and keep going strong. It is filled with exclusive content as well as the Bands site.
The Band is already recording the much anticipated third Album, meanwhile an opening slot supporting Sepultura lent a great opening for this year. Napalm Death on the 9th of May was also a great surprise, but the icing on the cake will be a 5 day mini tour supporting Germany´s Caliban and with Finish friends Omnium Gatherum bettween the 6th and 10th of June.
Stay tuned on this well oiled machine, every show is a celebration and a credit to Metal.
Painstruck leave no credit unfulfilled, check for yourself!
