This Can Hurt, founded by the end of 2015 in Ghent (BE), started out as a 100% studio project with only one thing in mind: “there’s no limit when it comes to crossing genres”.
After a year of intense songwriting the debut album “Nothing Matters” hit the shelves in March 2017. The album turned out to be a mixture of Rock, Metal, Wave & Industrial and several reviewers praised the band for having an international standard, throwing in references with bands such as Muse, Nine Inch Nails, Type O Negative, Deftones, Massive Attack, Sisters Of Mercy…
By the end of September 12, 2019, the band had their sophomore album ‘Worlds Apart’ set. They band released a limited batch of 200 vinyls on their own ‘Lacienda’ label. Sold out in a mere 2 weeks, gave the band an opportunity to negotiate with several record labels, and on the last day of 2019 This can Hurt signed a worldwide deal with UK-based Glasstone Records for the Worlds Apart album.
During the pandemic, the band started working on Mikaela, but due to the uncertain times they decided to put the release on hold and started working on a 5-track semi-acoustic EP which was released on Hallows Eve 2022.
