Peter Tägtgren is a man to be reckoned with in the metal world – because of his work with Hypocrisy, an influential melodic death band, because of the success of his electro-industrial project, Pain, but above all because he’s everywhere! Peter Tägtgren is always doing something, whether it is releasing an album, touring with one of the two above-mentioned bands, or working as a producer. This year alone, he’ll release an album with Hypocrisy, start working on Pain’s new record, have his name associated with Amorphis’ new record, which he produced, and with Children Of Bodom’s latest effort as a vocal producer, and so on.

After all, it may well be the key to success: always having one’s name in the metal news. It’s probably not his main goal, though, but just a consequence of his hyperactivity. He himself admits that he can’t stop thinking about business, even on holiday, because “the industry never sleeps or take a vacation”. In order to succeed, one needs to always catch the right train.

One of the risks with hyperactivity is to lose sight of the essence of things. But today, with End Of Disclosure, it’s precisely the essence of Hypocrisy that Peter Tägtgren means to go back to – the formula that characterized him in the 90’s and allowed his band to leave a durable mark on the international metal landscape.
