Positive energized indie-country-whatever-postpunk for grown-ups.

They are always the last to leave the bar. And they'll be the last to call it quits: 17 years ago, PAINHEAD played their first power chord, and to this day the line-up remains unvaried. Some things though might have changed: The four guys don't smoke in the rehearsal room anymore, and sometimes they prefer to drink their beer out of a glass instead of a can. And, of course, some new songs have been written as well.

In their sound, some hear a bit of the Foo Fighters, others compare them to Biffy Clyro. Singer Marco Klein, the singer calls it cross-over, but isn't really sure in what genres they are crossing over. So let's just call it a sputtering of punk rock, neither cheap nor afflicted by any trash-fashion vibes. These four best friends don't need the drainpipe jeans or tattoed arms to impress the crowd, their passion and their music is enough.
