ENGINE OF PAIN Announces New Guitarist

December 4, 2006

ENGINE OF PAIN, the Dutch thrash act featuring former AFTER FOREVER (1995-2000) drummer Joep Beckers, has announced the addition of guitarist Bastiaan Kuiper (SYMBOLIC, STORMRIDER) to the group's ranks. The band will release its new album, "I Am Your Enemy", in January 2007 via Lion Music.

ENGINE OF PAIN "will be spreading its word of pounding, melodic and aggressive thrash metal through the worldwide Lion Music distribution and advertisement channels," according to a press release. "The Lion Music label president Lars Eric Mattson and ENGINE OF PAIN are very happy with the newly baked metal joint venture. Not only because this deal means some kind of a new direction for Lion Music in words of dispersion of musical housekeeping but also for ENGINE OF PAIN in words of being part of a very fine high musical quality roster and a label with great distribution channels and ditto promotional power."

ENGINE OF PAIN's last release was the six-song EP "Here is the Pain!", which came out in March 2004.
