about

Ozzuario, a duo from Chicago, play a unique kind of industrial no wave post-punk metal. Existence is Pain is their sophomore album. While not as confrontational or aggressive as their debut Desolation/Destruction, Existence is Pain has proven to be the catchier and more enjoyable album. Whether they’re thrashing, downtrodden or dancing, a lot of really great moments abound on this album.
—Dutch Pearce/Decibel Magazine

Ozzuario's fusion of industrial music and black metal on Existence Is Pain pushes both genres outside their comfort zones
—Leor Galil/Chicago Reader

The 2nd full length album by Ozzuario.

A hellish journey through the darkest and bleakest dimensions of depression, anxiety, and trauma in a cruel world.

Recommended for fans of: Bathory, GISM, ZOUO, Throbbing Gristle, Sisters of Mercy, Front 242, & Grave New World-era Discharge

Vinyl Release: October 2, 2020

I love the light and shade between Bryan's dirty and Emma's forlorn vocals. There are so many layers to this recording that are driven home through contrast. Plus the riffs are brilliant and get me moving. I can't stop listening to Thou and Emma in general lately. spaceman2250

Synthy, ultra processed black metal. It's a little goofy, but it makes for a nice change of pace from my usual fare. Ghuughra
