AVOID THE PAIN was
formed by guitarist and vocalist Rodrigo Arruda and
drummer Pedro Leão in the end of 2006 in Belo Horizonte,
Brazil. The band has as main influence the contemporary
Death Metal bands, such as In Flames, At the Gates and
Carcass. Other musical styles that influences the
arrangements and themes are the contemporary Thrash Metal,
for example Lamb of God and The Haunted and Doom/Gothic
Metal as Sentenced and Amorphis.
The name Avoid the Pain can have two meanings. The first
is related to the fact that the human being overestimates
little things that when they lapse, cause him pain. And
one way to avoid this pain is always think that, living
that way, after the death your life has meant nothing. It
is a name that causes reflection. Another meaning can be
assigned to those situations where a person finds his life
empty, useless and only means pain.
Trying to avoid the
pain, they end up in search of death as a solution. These
meanings can be found in the themes of the songs that deal
also with human nature: fear, introspection, thinking
gloom, dark, that often are not brought to the surface to cause
outrage in ourselves and in others. |
