Formed in 2009, World of Pain has released two studio albums, two EPs and one 3-way split.[7] Shortly after the release of their 2009 demo, World of Pain signed with Beatdown Hardwear, releasing the Earthquake Split[8] in 2010 with fellow American bands Ruckus[9] and Xibalba.[10] In 2011, the band released their self-titled debut studio album, World of Pain, via Beatdown Hardwear.[11] The album featured guest vocalists Thaddeus 'Tad' Stamps of Stout,[12] Martin Gonzalez of Billy Club Sandwich, Matthias 'Matthi' Odysseus of Nasty, and a secret track featuring voice actor Jon St. John as the voice of Duke Nukem.[13] In 2013, World of Pain released an EP via Beatdown Hardwear titled Improvise & Survive[14][15][16] in collaboration with clothing brand Us Versus Them. A few years later in 2016, World of Pain released their second studio album on Beatdown Hardwear titled End Game.[17][3][18][19] This album featured guest vocalists Jeremy Tingle of Lifeless and Mike Score of All Out War. The following year in 2017, in collaboration with Retribute Records (Japan), World of Pain released their second EP, titled No Utopia.[20][21] After 10 years of being together, World of Pain announced on March 6, 2019 via social media that 2019 would mark the final year of World of Pain.[4][22] World of Pain played their final show on January 4, 2020 in their hometown of San Diego, California.[23][24]
