Pain, the Swedish industrial-metal force led by multi-instrumentalist and producer Peter Tägtgren (Hypocrisy, Lindemann), will unleash the follow-up to 2011's You Only Live Twice this fall. A lyric video for the new single, ‘Black Knight Satellite” can be seen below. The single is available digitally at this location.

After the substantial success of his Lindemann project with Rammstein vocalist Till Lindemann, Tägtgren retreated to his Abyss Studios to focus on writing yet another industrial-metal masterpiece. Coming Home will be released on September 9th through Nuclear Blast. Cover artwork was created by Stefan Heilemann (Epica, Lindemann, Indica).

Tägtgren states: "I was brainstorming about the cover with Heile again and we finally got the result that I really needed. I rented a spacesuit and things spun away thereafter. Musically, the album is a development of where Pain and Lindemann left off; more experimental than what I've ever done before. There are acoustic guitars and Clemens of Carach Angren lent a helping hand with the orchestra arrangements, and some guest vocals. Sebastian Tägtgren also did a great job on the drums."
