Pain and Metalite Live in Lund 2024: A Night of Synth-Driven Metal
October 8
It’s time to mark your calendars and prepare for a night of industrial metal and melodic power that will scorch your soul and sear your eardrums.

Pain and Metalite Live in Lund 2024: A Night of Synth-Driven Metal
If you’re a fan of dark, heavy riffs fused with pulsating electronic beats or soaring, anthemic melodies that could wake the dead, this is one show you cannot afford to miss. Here’s what you can expect when these two powerhouses collide on stage in Lund.
Pain: The Masters of Industrial Metal Return
Let’s talk about Pain. If the name doesn’t immediately conjure images of apocalyptic landscapes and dystopian futures, you’ve clearly missed out on one of the most influential bands in the industrial metal scene. Led by the mad genius Peter Tägtgren, Pain has been a relentless force since the mid-90s, blending metal with elements of electronic music to create something that’s not just heavy but unrelenting.
Pain’s music isn’t just an assault on the senses—it’s a deep dive into the darker side of existence. Their latest album, Coming Home, showed a more melodic, yet still crushing side of the band, and fans have been eagerly waiting to see how these tracks translate live. Tägtgren’s knack for combining brutal riffs with hauntingly beautiful melodies has never been more apparent, and this tour is set to showcase the best of what Pain has to offer.
Expect to hear classics like “Shut Your Mouth” and “Same Old Song,” alongside newer anthems like “Call Me” and “Black Knight Satellite.” Each track is a testament to the dark genius of Tägtgren, who effortlessly bridges the gap between industrial metal and the bleakest corners of the human psyche. If you’re in the mood for a show that feels like a journey through the end times, Pain is here to guide you.
Metalite: The New Wave of Melodic Power Metal
On the flip side of the coin, we have Metalite, a band that’s been making waves in the power metal scene with their unique blend of metal and electronic elements. Where Pain drags you down into the depths of despair, Metalite lifts you up with their soaring melodies and infectious energy.
Metalite isn’t your typical power metal band. Yes, they have the epic choruses and the technical guitar work that you’d expect, but what sets them apart is their use of electronic music elements. It’s as if they’ve taken the best parts of synthwave and mashed them together with power metal to create something fresh and exciting.
Their latest album, A Virtual World, is a high-octane ride through futuristic landscapes, filled with anthems that are both uplifting and hard-hitting. Tracks like “Beyond the Horizon” and “Peacekeepers” are bound to become live staples, and the energy they bring to their performance is nothing short of electric. If you’re looking for a band that can deliver the kind of feel-good metal that gets your blood pumping, Metalite is the one to watch.

Now, let’s talk about the venue: Mejeriet in Lund. This isn’t just another stop on the tour—it’s a place where the energy of the crowd and the intensity of the bands combine to create something truly unforgettable.

It’s a night where you can lose yourself in the music, let go of the mundane realities of life, and just immerse yourself in a sonic journey that’s as cathartic as it is brutal.
If you’re a fan of industrial metal, power metal, or just music that hits hard and doesn’t apologize for it, this is a show you need to experience. Pain’s visceral performances combined with Metalite’s soaring anthems will create a night that lingers long after the final note has faded.
