Formed in late 2005, Paindivision features some of Australia's most
disciplined and hardest-working musicians. Guitarist Stu Marshall, a
writer for Guitarist Australia magazine, is formerly of the metal band
Dungeon. During Dungeon’s heyday, they were the go-to band for
promoters seeking a world-class professional act capable of supporting
international artists such as Nightwish, Angra, Destruction, Doro and
Twisted Sister. Dungeon also toured the world extensively, playing
shows in the USA, Europe and Japan. After opening for Megadeth all of
their Australian shows in 2005, Dungeon were invited to support the
metal giants on the European leg of their Blackmail The Universe tour.

Vocalist Jordan Howe formerly fronted the infamous Candy Harlots, who
were Australia's biggest hard rock export in their day and one of the
most explosive and exciting acts around. Jordan's powerful and
unpredictable onstage persona ensures that Paindivision's live shows
are a firebreathing collective of raw sonic fury. Rounding out the band
is Joe Rahme (drums) one of Sydney's most 'in demand' session players
and Dan Quinlan (bass) and producer having worked with Deicide on their
last Australia tour .

Since its genesis, the band has attained support slots with
legends Zakk Wylde , Sebastian Bach and Helloween, carving out a
reputation as a live heavy metal juggernaut.

The latest release for the band "One Path" is scheduled to deliver a
brutal onslaught of heavy metal. Set for release nationally on
September 27, the album displays a focused effort by the group and
showcases the strong songwriting talent from all members. While
including the bands classic metal influences, the unique combination of
personal style has again combined to craft the bands unique sound. High
speed guitar and "fist to face" production will ensure that "One Path"
is one of the must have metal releases of 2008

The last 18 months have been non stop for the band releasing
their critically acclaimed debut cd and smashing through a headlining
tour of Japan. The "Pain across Japan tour" included nine blistering
shows in fourteen days, covering all major cities in Japan. The shows
garnered the band received fevoured reviews from the Japanese press and
there is a live tour DVD planned for release in 2008 / 2009.

The debut album is available nationally via RIOT Entertainment, with
the new release "One Path" soon to hit stores. The band are currently
examining options for release the album in Japan, The states and
Europe.
