They’ve been very focus and artistically driven, with some nine releases in that period, always characterized by a heavy mid-tempo melodic sound for most of the time, which they have become masters of.

Pain Of Salvation - In the Passing Light of Day

“I was born in this building, it was the first Tuesday I had ever seen – and if I live to see tomorrow, it will be my Tuesday number: 2119”…

You open the door. Hesitantly. Darkness frantically hits you in the face. Abruptness grasps you from the neck. Roughness rushes your skin, you feel trapped, but you like it. A smile ditches your face, while you are spinning in an emotional whirlwind made of tears and pain. Welcome back old friend. Welcome back Daniel. Welcome back Pain Of Salvation!
