Pass Out of Existence

Pass out of Existence is the debut studio album by American heavy metal band Chimaira, released on October 2, 2001. According to vocalist Mark Hunter, as of 2003, the band has sold 44,000 copies of the album in the United States. Some editions of the album include a hidden track at the end of "Jade," extending the track's total runtime to 13:57. The Japanese/Australian pressing includes the bonus track "Without Moral Restraint." Prior to the band's debut release, the track "Dead Inside" was performed on the short lived USA Network program Farmclub.com. This prompted Roadrunner Records to sign Chimaira. The album features a different sound from their later albums, leaning more towards nu metal.
