American Nightmare Tickets & 2026–2027 Tour Dates

American Nightmare is an American hardcore punk band formed in Boston in 1998. Led by vocalist Wes Eisold, the group established its terse, abrasive sound on the album Background Music and followed it with We're Down Til We're Underground. A legal dispute prompted the band to use the name Give Up the Ghost before it later reclaimed its original name.

American Nightmare reunited for two shows in 2011 after breaking up in 2004. The first return took place at the Revere Hotel in their home city, followed by a New Year's Eve performance at the Echoplex in Los Angeles.
