Hardcore punk band American Nightmare have announced a winter 2020 world tour in celebration of the 20th anniversary of their first self-titled EP and their first live performance. The group have also unveiled their latest compilation album: Year One, which contains the band’s first two EP’s on one record, which will be released on February 7 via Bridge Nine/Heartworm.
The band released their self-titled album last year, which was their first studio album release in over 15-years. The band sought to create a record that was true to their sound.
“In making this record we had one goal,” said vocalist Wesley Eisold, “To make a hardcore punk album that was true to American Nightmare, who we were then and who we are now… No filler, just existential poetic venom. This is ground zero, a new life for the band.”
Eisold is also the main figure behind Cold Cave, which blends several genres together, dark wave, synth pop and elements of noise music. Cold Cave toured earlier this year and released new single entitled “Promised Land.”
