Reissue contains a bonus CD with demos, live-tracks and on-air radio performances. Neurosis includes: Scott Kelly (vocals, guitar); David Edwardson (vocals, bass). Oakland metal outfit Neurosis dropped their full-length debut, PAIN OF MIND, in 1988. While on subsequent releases the band would perfect a razor-edged brand of mesmerizing prog metal, PAIN OF MIND captures the band full of youthful, punky energy. In fact, the album might be more easily classified as hardcore thrash than metal. Either way, PAIN OF MIND hits like a battering ram. Lead singer Scott Kelly lets loose his banshee scream, and the band drills through in-your-face pounders with no shortage of cacophonous aggression. Though not nearly as complex or nuanced as future releases, the album is exhilarating, and remains a successful portrait of a band at the beginning of their evolution. The 2000 re-release, which includes an extra disc of demos and live material, makes it even more appealing.
