Relief Through Release is the second and final studio album by the American band Tura Satana. It was the band's only release under their current name after changing their name from Manhole. It was released in Europe on September 29, 1997,[1] and in the United States in April 1998.

According to AllMusic, Relief Through Release "is a solid testament to the capability of the nu-metal genre",[2] with Tairrie B's performance being compared to "a mixture of Courtney Love and Marilyn Manson".[2] The band's music was categorized as a "relentless assault on one's ears, musically sounding as raw and heavy as early Coal Chamber".[2]

Like its predecessor, Relief Through Release received mixed-to-positive reviews from critics.[citation needed] 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."[2]
