“…this isn’t an album that lends itself to simple genre categorization. There would be a lot of hyphens in any such descriptors now. Whatever you want to call, it, however, it’s relentlessly gripping, moving, and memorable…” – No Clean Singing

No Clean Singing presents an exclusive stream of Circle Of Pain, the ferocious third full-length from prolific Swedish outfit HENRY KANE, ahead of the album’s release this Friday on Selfmadegod Records.

Formed in 2016 HENRY KANE is the solo output of Jonny Pettersson, also a member of Heads For The Dead, Wombbath, Massacre, Rotpit, and others, with a seemingly endless roster of prior bands appearing on his resume. Pettersson started the project to celebrate the twentieth anniversary of his first demo. Starting off in the world of punk and grindcore, those genres would be the pillar stones of the band’s overall sound, yet each release since has incorporated different extreme styles that have inspired him in one way or another.

HENRY KANE released its debut album Den Förstörda Människans Rike via Transcending Obscurity Records in 2017, followed by a split LP with Prolefeed on Wooaaargh the same year, and the second album Age Of The Idiot arrived on Transcending Obscurity in 2020.

Now, HENRY KANE arrives with the infectious third album, Circle Of Pain, the album’s seven heavyweight tracks once again taking the project’s sound in new directions. The record crosses the D-beat-inspired punk/crust influences into much more metallic territory, with dreary melodic elements and blackened atmospheres infiltrating a caustic bed of more modern-sounding metallic grindcore and crust-infused death metal that will no doubt appeal to fans of Martyrdöd, Wolfbrigade, Disfear, Anaal Nathrakh, Phobia, and Nasum.

Recorded, mixed, and mastered at Studio Unbound by Jonny Pettersson who performed all instruments, Circle Of Pain is completed with cover art by Fredrik Ringström.

Pettersson writes, “The best thing about HENRY KANE for me, is that there are no boundaries to adhere to. So, with this album, I wanted to take what I have done on the previous albums and push the sound even further, and then wrap it all up in blastbeats, anger, and hate.”

No Clean Singing describes how the album, “twists even more from the project’s deathly crust and grind roots,” elaborating, “the D-beats, the crust/punk, and the death/grind influences haven’t been locked away in a closet on Circle Of Pain — their presence is part of what makes the album so viscerally gripping — but now they’re parts of a multi-faceted and electrifying amalgam… this isn’t an album that lends itself to simple genre categorization. There would be a lot of hyphens in any such descriptors now. Whatever you want to call, it, however, it’s relentlessly gripping, moving, and memorable…”
