In 1991, after being dropped from Atlantic/Megaforce, Vio-lence released an EP "Torture Tactics", which included three studio songs (recorded in 1989 during the sessions of "Oppressing the Masses") and one "live" track from 1988. Internal conflicts in 1992 resulted in the departure of Robb Flynn who would move on to form groove metal band Machine Head. A year later, Vio-lence released their third and final album, "Nothing to Gain", which was actually recorded in 1990. They never toured in support of that album, and Strickland left the band after its release.
