Biography
ENGINE OF PAIN is a metalband from the South of the Netherlands.
The band is founded in May, 2003.
ENGINE OF PAIN is basically formed by Maurice Brouwers, Patrick Waltmans and Joep Beckers.
From the beginning it was clear that the music should be groovy and melodic but very heavy.
Few weeks later the band decided to ask ex-Form grunter Nick Hameury if he'd like to join the new band; one of the best Dutch grunters was in!
So the foundation was established...
Several months after Engine of Pain was founded, Nick encountered Ruud (Defcon One). Ruud was the right person to complete the band and his inventive soloing and riffs pulled the band up to a higher level.
Engine of Pain recorded a MCDemo in February 2004 titled - Here is the Pain! -.
Thanks to this MCDemo the Wacken Open Air organisation decided to invite the band to play at WACKEN OPEN AIR (15th anniversary): one of the largest metal festivals of the world with 43.000 visitors that year.
That same year ENGINE OF PAIN played the final of the well known Dutch band competition Jägermeister / Aardschok METAL BASH as well.
In October 2005 the band started to plan and implement their next step: recording a professional full length album including artwork. The result was a very tight, hard, aggressive, powerful and melodic album with strong, cool and contemplated lyrics and ditto artwork. The album - called I Am Your Enemy - was released worldwide by Lion Music on 26th of January 2007.
Beginning of December 2006 the band enlisted guitarist Bastiaan Kuiper.
Nick Hameury left the band due to his immigration to Spain in July 2007.
With vocalist Rogier Stockbroeks (August 2007 - October 2008) the band recorded a 2-track promo CD in November 2007.
The band is currently supported by Jackson Guitars, Dean Guitars, Engl Amps and Spector basses.
