The track arrives alongside an official music video and further cements AXTY’s reputation as one of the most compelling acts to emerge from South America’s heavy music scene in recent years.
Following prestigious tours alongside Lacuna Coil, The Browning, and Born of Osiris, AXTY continue to build momentum with a sound that draws from the visceral tension of nu-metal while channelling the modern aggression of deathcore. ’nothing but pain‘ delivers a flood of driving hooks and thunderous grooves, bearing the emotional weight that has become the band’s calling card.
Vocalist Felipe Hervoso describes the track as an unfiltered look at what it means to lose all hope and fight for survival, exploring the suffocating grip of psychological anguish with unflinching directness.
The twelve-track album ‚The Pain Made Me Who I Am‘ maps a journey through human darkness and personal resilience, with AXTY — completed by drummer Gabriel Vacari and guitarist Jonathas Peschiera — demonstrating an impressive range across the record. From crushing deathcore passages to melodic metalcore and alternative-tinged closers, the album showcases the trio’s versatility and vision. Pre-orders are now live via Napalm Records.
