Eternal Nightmare is the debut album by the San Francisco Bay Area thrash metal band Vio-lence, released on June 27, 1988 through MCA Records' Mechanic sublabel.

Contents

It is considered to be an essential release in the genre by Revolver . [5] The song "Serial Killer" is considered a fan favorite. [6]

Release history

It was released on June 27, 1988 [1] through MCA Records' Mechanic sublabel. A limited 10" promo single was released, featuring two tracks, 'Eternal Nightmare' and 'Phobophobia.'; the release was quite unique, as it came in a "vomit pack", a sealed plastic cover containing fake vomit. [7] Shortly after, thrash metal innovators Slayer released a single in a similar format but with fake blood, and rock band The Revolting Cocks released a single with fake semen.[ citation needed ]

The 2005 re-release of the album includes a bonus CD of the Thrash of the Titans concert (benefit for Testament singer Chuck Billy), recorded August 11, 2001. [4] As of 2023, other than the EPs Torture Tactics and Let the World Burn , this is the only Vio-lence studio album to have been made available on digital streaming services.

Music

The album's sound has drawn comparisons to Exodus, Death Angel and Testament. [6] Revolver stated that some of the arrangements on the album are progressive. [5]
