Relief Through Release is the second studio album by the American band Tura Satana and their first since changing their name from Manhole.

Composition

According to AllMusic, Relief Through Release "is a solid testament to the capability of the nu-metal genre",^[1] with Tairrie B's performance being compared to "a mixture of Courtney Love and Marilyn Manson".^[1] The band's music was categorized as a "relentless assault on one's ears, musically sounding as raw and heavy as early Coal Chamber".^[1]

AllMusic called the album "a solid chunk of nu-metal sludge that goes a long way in proving that female-fronted groups can be just as unforgiving and brutal in this predominantly male genre."^[1]
