French Nightmare formed back in 1979 playing punk rock. When in 1980 the music evolved to heavy metal, founding members leave the band, so Yves Campion (bass) and Etienne Stauffert (vocals) remain the only original members. Three demos are recorded between 1981 and 1983, they gain attention opening for Def Leppard in 1983 and some lineup changes happen: Jo Amore (drums), Nicolas De Dominicis (guitars), Christopher Houpert (vocals, keys) and Jean Strippoli (guitar) unite to Yves. With this line-up they record their debut album „Waiting for the Twilight” in 1984 for Ebony, followed by „Power of the Universe” (with new vocalist Jean-Maire Boix) in 1985 for Ebony too; also a third album called „Nova Atlantis” was planned but never took light, so in 1988 they split.
Reformed in 1999 Nightmare return with a much more dominant power metal sound, Jo Amore leaves drums and becomes the lead vocalist, David Amore joines as drummer. Their first release upon reunion is the Ep” Astral Deliverance” (1999) which is followed by live album „Live Deliverance” (2000). In 2001 Nightmare release „Cosmovision”, ambitious and solid concept album, their first full-length in sixteen years. Through new line-up changes they release a further nine studio albums, the latest is „Encrypted” (2024). Available on vinyl for the first time.
