Product Details

Painful arrived in 1993 as the album where Ira Kaplan, Georgia Hubley, and James McNew locked into the trio configuration that would define them for decades. Recorded with producer Roger Moutenot, it balanced drone-heavy guitar haze against surprisingly delicate songwriting, and captured a Hoboken band quietly becoming one of indie rock's most essential units.
