The four piece Rising Pain out of Phoenix, Arizona, is obviously out to leave their mark in the straight forward metal community. Following up their first demo released in 2002, Useless Shell, Salvation For None proves itself to be a nicely polished and unique lesson in all out heaviness. What's refreshing about a band like Rising Pain is that they're doing now what bands like Sacred Reich have been trying to do for ages...create some highly imaginative and impressively distinct hard metal which borrows from several influences but settles on none. They have come up with a very tight, crisp sound with obvious inspirations from Metallica, Testament, and Slayer that can stand the test of time.
With no sound trying to out do the other, the most striking part of Salvation For None is the vocalist, Justin Bredvig. His vocals extend from a Testament meets Sepultura growl, to a droning Meliah Rage-like tone. His vocals are well complimented by some dominant bass, barrel-scraping guitar, and hellishly moody drumming. For fans of modern heavy-hitting metal with older influences should most certainly look into tracking this down.Band/artist history
Rising Pain has its roots in South American Ecuador, guitarist Ricardo Racines was born there and developed a big love for metal there as well. He moved to the U.S. when he was eighteen and a little later his brother Daniel Racines and good friend and drummer Alex Zambrano followed him. Singer Justin Bredvig is the only American in the outfit. Having this much South American blood around, I fear some cheap and weak samba rhythms, of which we have seen enough already right?
Thank god! It is not like that, Rising Pain appears to be a slap in the face, a hammer coming down on your head if you will. The quartet recorded four brutal and heavy tracks on Salvation For None A mixture of classic Slayer influences combined with younger heavy bands like Pantera and Machine Head. Besides these heavy songs, there is an instrumental track, Third World Nation in which we find some lost flutes from the Andes anyway. They have been thinking about their lyrics as well and in Chaotic Towers they express their political view on the WTC attacks without holding back; West and East collide, religion devides, innocent souls die as muslim nations unite. The production is massive and they put some effort in the artwork of the the whole thing. I have seen too many demos the past year, that were not that well taken care of in these areas.
Rising Pain is ambitious and works hard, you can hear and see that. It would be good, if Rising Pain can land a deal in 2004 and makes us happy with a full length album.Have you performed in front of an audience?Yes, we play all over Arizona, we've played Metal Fest's here in AZ sharing the stage with Macabre, Skinlab, Flotsam and Jetsam, Vehemence and many other bands. We have our first tour planned to kick off July 23rd. It will be a 2 week tour covering several states and playing the Milwaukee Metalfest, so we can't wait for that.
Your musical influences
I would say bands that have influenced us have been bands like Sepultura, Testament, Slayer, Megadeth, Metallica and newer stuff like Shadows Fall, Superjoint Ritual and Lamb of GodWhat equipment do you use?
Just the same old guitars, amps, bass, drums and a powerful voice.Anything else?
Check our band out, you won't be dissapointed.
