2007 · Regain Records

Genetic Disorder by Nightmare is an unyielding torrent of heavy metal power, a sonic declaration that demands attention from its opening riff. Released in 2007, this album showcases the French quintet at their most potent, delivering a high-octane blend of traditional heavy metal might and the raw, unbridled aggression of thrash. It's an album built on thunderous double-bass drumming, galloping guitar riffs, and a vocal performance that oscillates between melodic strength and guttural intensity, creating an atmosphere of relentless forward momentum. The overall feeling is one of defiant energy, a soundtrack for overcoming obstacles with sheer force.
