Embracing the Pain: DOOM’s Debut ‘No More Pain…’ (EXP-HM283024)
Diving into the complex and intense world of Japanese thrash metal, we focus today on the debut full-length album from the highly influential band DOOM. This is “No More Pain…”, released on Explosion Records with the catalog number EXP-HM283024.
Issued in 1987, this 12-inch vinyl LP marked the arrival of a band that defied easy categorization within the thrash metal genre. Hailing from the vibrant Kansai underground scene and released on the Explosion label, known for capturing raw, independent energy, DOOM presented a unique and challenging sound right from the start.
“No More Pain…” showcases DOOM’s signature style, which blended the aggression of thrash metal with complex, progressive song structures and elements drawn from jazz fusion. The album delivers intense, heavy tracks like “Death To Wimp!,” “Body No Body,” “Iron Card,” and the title track, characterized by intricate guitar work, powerful drumming, and, most notably, incredibly complex and prominent bass lines that were central to their sound. The vocals often matched the music’s intensity, creating a dense and challenging listening experience. Notably, this release was never originally issued with a lyric insert.
EXP-HM283024 stands as a landmark debut in Japanese extreme metal. It introduced a band unafraid to incorporate progressive and jazz elements into their thrash foundation, establishing a unique sound that influenced many musicians. “No More Pain…” remains a highly respected and essential album for fans of innovative and complex thrash metal.
