Sweet Vengeance (album)

Sweet Vengeance is the debut full-length studio album by the Greek/Swedish melodic death metal band Nightrage. It was released by Century Media Records on 30 June 2003. Some song titles are shortened versions of ones used for demo versions of their respective songs.

Critical reception
Writing for AllMusic, John Serba said the album was "consistently excellent in both song and performance" and "any fan of the melodic European death metal scene should foam at the mouth upon hearing Nightrage's debut."

Blabbermouth was more critical of the album, calling it an "above average slab of melodic crunch that can at different points be both skilful and disparate."

Laura Taylor for Exclaim! stated that "the band pulls off the stylistic experimentation admirably well" and that it "isn't the straightforward melodic death metal album that the first few tracks might lead you to expect."

Japanese releases feature a bonus track, an extended demo version of "Gloomy Daydreams".
