Today, extreme metal trailblazers and passionate horror aficionados Aborted have unleashed a new stand-alone single called “The Pain, Will Be Exquisite” upon the world. The song is an unreleased bonus track from the recording sessions of Aborted’s acclaimed most recent album, Vault Of Horrors (2024), and it’s easily on par with its evil siblings that made the cut and ended up on the full-length. Fusing a variety of extreme metal subgenres, ‘The Pain, Will Be Exquisite’ is a unrelenting attack on the senses and will beat you into submission in typical Aborted fashion with its ferocious groove and unexpected tempo changes.

Aborted front man Sven de Caluwé commented:
Maniax! It is with great horror that we present to you ‘The Pain, Will Be Exquisite’! Something we recorded during the Vault of Horrors sessions and kept aside as a surprise. We hope you enjoy blasting it as much as we did. See you all on the road very soon!
