BORN FROM PAIN
WARFARE

2009 sounds the year that Reaper Records add a second European band to its ever-expanding lineup. A true EU melting pot, BORN FROM PAIN was founded in the early summer of 97 as one of the early European bands to play a crossover metal core brand of heavy music. BORN FROM PAIN grew up in a musical environment of mid-80s Bay Area and German thrash metal and NY hardcore, 90s Florida and Birmingham death metal, NYC crossover and US/European metal core. Bands like MERAUDER, STIGMATA, BOLT THROWER, OBITUARY, INTEGRITY, TESTAMENT, SLAYER, early AGNOSTIC FRONT and CRUMBSUCKERS were of infinite influence on members as the fuse was lit that summer… and for many years to come! Never one to follow trends, BORN FROM PAIN have retained their backbone. The message remains the same: identify the problems and implement your personal solutions. In a world that every day seems to be slipping further into disarray and chaos, BORN FROM PAIN challenge you to prepare yourself with a survival state of mind. Reaper Records presents to you the Warfare 7”. Five handpicked songs from their 2008 LP Survival released on Metal Blade in November of 2008. We love it and we wanted to bring it to you on wax, because that’s what we do — hardcore.
