Exorcist "Nightmare theatre" LP

Nightmare Theatre is forever one of the most bizarre and bone-chilling relics of the 1980s underground metal scene. Released under the mysterious Cobra Records banner. Crafted in secret by members of Virgin Steele - David DeFeis and Edward Pursino, with bassist Joe O'Reilly and drummer Mark Edwards, Nightmare Theatre is a masterclass in musical deception. This tight-knit circle of talent conjured a demonic masterpiece cloaked in pseudonyms and raw occult fury. Imagine this: Mercyful Fate trapped in a studio and told to channel Venom. Iron Maiden kidnapped by Bathory in a fog-drenched crypt. Now crank that mental image to 11. Every track oozes with over-the-top evil vocals - growling, shrieking, and agonized. Guitar solos blaze like hellfire, while bass and drums rumble like a beast awakened. It doesn’t sound like a thrown-together side project, but like a real band possessed by the devil himself. And the illusion? Bulletproof. They even did a fake photo shoot with actors as the “band.” No one knew the truth until many years later. This isn’t just an album. It’s a Hammer horror film in sonic form. It's a séance, a deception, and an absolute triumph in underground horror metal. Get ready to rediscover one of the strangest and most amazing ghost stories in metal history.
