Torture Tactics is an EP recorded by the San Francisco Bay Area thrash metal band Vio-lence in 1991. It was released originally on Megaforce Records and the studio tracks are old songs from the demo times of Vio-lence.
Vio-lence released the EP Torture Tactics on a different label, in response to the deletion of the title track from their first two albums; however, it can be found on the Japanese edition of Oppressing the Masses. This EP is the only release besides the Japanese edition of Oppressing the Masses to include "Torture Tactics".
"Officer Nice (live)" was a fake live track. The live intro is taken from Vio-lence's Hallendale, FL, show from August 1988. "Torture Tactics" and "Gutterslut" were the two outtakes from the 1989 Oppressing the Masses sessions.
