House of Pain was a Irish-influenced Rap group who released three albums in the early to mid 90's before lead singer Everlast decided to pursue his solo career again.

Erik Everlast Schrody was a teenaged hip-hop enthusiast, and his career started as a protégé of pioneering West Coast rapper Ice-T, who brought him into his "Rhyme Syndicate" fraternity. Everlast was signed to Sire/Warner Bros. and released the solo album Forever Everlasting in 1990. It was not a commercial success, but when he and friends Dan Danny Boy O’Connor and Leor DJ Lethal Dimant signed to Tommy Boy Records, House of Pain's 1992 self-titled group effort went multi-platinum off the hit single "Jump Around".
