Australian metallers INTERNAL NIGHTMARE have announced their recent signing with Australian record label, High Voltage Records.

Work horses of the Australian metal scene, Internal Nightmare have generated impressive local and international interest since their inception, and are currently terrorizing metropolitan and regional Victoria in preparation for their upcoming EPs release.

Internal Nightmare's 2009 promotional disc exceeded all expectations and lead single‘The Term Is Frustration?' was featured in compilations such as Blunt Magazine's ‘Loud Noises’ and Welkin Entertainment's ‘Euphony Fusion 3’ and will also feature in Stop Time Media's upcoming Melbourne Metal Unleashed DVD, along with the accompanying debut film clip.

The promotional disc substantially raised public interest (along with an appearance on the ABC’s national TV show, Spicks And Specks), with its unique blend of extreme genres and groove orientated thrash metal proudly displaying the bands roots, while also providing a clear indication of the bands direction.

Internal Nightmare's upcoming debut EP, Segregation, is a testament to the bands’ ability to combine dirty-yet-technical riffs, thunderous drums and aggressive vocals with a sense of musicality that has been missing since the heyday of bands like PANTERA, SEPULTURA, DEATH and CATARACT (amongst many others).

The 5-track EP includes a re-recorded 'The Term is Frustration' and new live favourite 'Annexation'.

Internal Nightmare had this to say: "We are extremely proud to announce this union - High Voltage has been a massive influence on the success of such jaw-dropping Australian bands like BLOODDUSTER, EARTH and SIN CITY, and have given bands such as PSYCROPTIC their start in Melbourne – so to say the least, we’re proud as punch to join such a brilliant roster!’

Segregation is due for release via High Voltage Records late May/early June.
