Pain Teens – Destroy Me, Lover

In "The Story of Isaac" Leonard Cohen gave a voice to Isaac, the son of Abraham. He turned the bible story about the folly of sacrificing children to God, into a war parable: sacrificing the young for the power of the old. By giving the song a female protagonist The Pain Teens turned the song into a haunting story about sexual abuse of young girls by their fathers - literally and metaphorically, as girls and women are used and abused for the lust of men in many ways.

trippy as shit noise rock with some sparse BIRTHDAY PARTY meets MINISTRY kind of pummeling behind the drum kit. Dunno why but i have the idea that FOEUTS might have been liking alot this band. Or the other way round, really. Every track has a particular flavor, so the listener's attention remains high for all the record. And that's a plus. Yes, is the first PAIN TEENS album i'm listening in full, and so far im enjoying it. I'll dig deeper on their material from now on.

Tribal-painted industrial noise rock. Like a sleazy detective tale told from a meat-grinder. For fans of Foetus, Swans, sludge rock and early Big Black (Atomizer)!
