PAIN OF TRUTH is more than just a band name, it’s a mantra for the Long Island, NY based hardcore band and their fans. Since 2020, Pain of Truth has been a driving force of the genre, blending old school sounds with new school swagger.

When Pain Of Truth drops on DAZE in September 2026, expect to hear the band’s sound amplified tenfold. Michael Smith’s vocals reach new heights of aggression and charisma, echoed back by gang vocals on every track. Riffs move from dirty grooves to electrifying and the drums provide a pulsating rhythmic backbone made to intensify every mosh part.

The record is the band’s first truly collaborative release and first bout of longer material with absolutely zero guest features. It’s a testament to Pain Of Truth doing things 100% their way and moving from a “me vs. you” mentality to “us vs. them.” The lyrics build from a place of resistance, struggle, and drive, attacking the unjust divisions in the world and fighting for a better reality.
