Ending Themes on the Two Deaths of Pain on Salvation


Ending Themes is a live album and documentary by the progressive metal band Pain of Salvation. It was released on January 26, 2009, with a DVD version released on March 3, 2009. The DVD release has a double disc feature. The first disc has an 80-minute documentary of the band's 2005 world tour directed by Per Hillblom and the second disc has the full concert video from the Paradiso show recorded on March 2, 2007. A limited edition version will also be released that will include a double audio CD version of the Amsterdam concert. The CD version was released independently of the DVDs as well.
The DVD is named in recognition of the two line-up changes in the previous few years. At the end of the 2005 world tour Kristoffer Gildenlöw left the band because he was not able to attend rehearsals since he lived in a different country to the rest of the band. He was temporarily replaced by Simon Andersson. The second change, at the end of the 2007 world tour, was when Johan Langell left the band to concentrate on family commitments. He was replaced by Léo Margarit, who has remained a member of the band since.
