House of Pain are an American-Irish hip-hop group who produced three albums at the beginning of the 90s, from which their most famous hit is the track Jump Around. The singer and frontman of the group, Everlast, decided to pursue a solo career, bringing about the end of the group in 1996. DJ Lethal also pursued his own musical career as part of the group Limp Bizkit.

Following a 14 year absence, in August 2010, the group announced their long-awaited reformation. This year, they are celebrating the release of a new album and will be at Dour Festival for their unique and exclusive Belgian show of the year.

Other confirmations will be announced in the coming weeks.
