Eternal Torment

About Me


After a long break, Eternal Torment have returned! We're currently rehearsing, writing and can't wait to get back out on the scene again!
Eternal Torment are a traditional metal band hailing from the south coast of England. By taking elements of traditional, doom, thrash, death and power metal into their uncompromising sound, they appeal to a broad spectrum of the metal community. Formed in 2005, Eternal Torment are a fantastic musical talent that combines professionalism, dedication, passion and reliability. Likened by many to classic bands such as Iron Maiden, Slayer and Iced Earth, other influences include Metallica, Dio, Nile, Exodus and many more.
