Nightmare Records Fall 2010 Sampler Available For Free Download

Progressive-power metal label Nightmare Records has made the Fall 2010 album sampler, A Nightmare On The Horizon, available as a free mp3 download at their website. A Nightmare On The Horizon features 13 songs from both Nightmare Records artists and distributed titles. Eight of the songs are from albums that will be released this October and November, while the remaining five are from albums available now.

I've been setting some money aside for many of these albums, as there's a lot of killer stuff here! Songs from the bands whose albums are released this Tuesday, October 12 - Manticore, Halcyon Way, Tetrafusion, Fracture, and Toxxic Toyz - are all great. Other favorites of mine here are Soulspell, Seven Kingdoms, Sinbreed, and Empyria. A Nightmare On The Horizon is a fantastic compilation featuring many great bands to be discovered.

Nightmare Records is the St. Paul-based label founded and run by vocalist Lance King (ex-Avian, Pyramaze, Balance Of Power, Gemini, others).

Upcoming Nightmare Records Releases

Nightmare Records, the progressive/power metal label and distribution company from St. Paul, has 5 new releases set for October 12 (as well as other new distribution releases), all of which are available for pre-order now through the Nightmare Records website. Looks like there's some great albums here! If you're not familiar with Nightmare Records, do yourself a favor a check out their diverse selection of artists. You cannot beat their prices for mp3 downloads of albums, and there's always great specials and discounts. I've included the trailer for one of the most promising of these upcoming releases, Altered State by Tetrafusion, and the full upcoming release schedule follows.

Nightmare Records Upcoming Release Schedule
All titles released on October 12:
Fracture - Simple Chaos
Halcyon Way - Building The Towers
Manticora - Safe
Tetrafusion - Altered State
Toxxic Toyz - Mutation

UPDATE: Tetrafusion has now added the full-length song "Last Chance" to their YouTube channel, so I thought I'd add it here for you to check out. Don't let the piano introduction fool you - this song really kicks in after the first minute and a half.
