History

edit

Circus of Pain was founded in 1994 by Michael Antener, G.No, and Ane Hebeisen. The band released their debut EP, titled The Swamp Meat Intoxication, in 1994.[2][3][4] It was made with the collaborative efforts of the bands Pankow and Templebeat and was commended for its "ugly vocals, heavy guitars, big break-beats and perverse lyrics".[5][6][7] In 1996 the band's debut was reissued by Fifth Colvmn Records[8] and the Paolo Favati remix of "Remove My Skin" was released on the various artist compilations Sweet Sub/Mission Vol. 1 and The Digital Space Between Vol. 3.[9][10] Circus of Pain recorded the song "Rotula" and in 1996 released it to The Answering Machine Solution on Staalplaat.[11] [12]
