Enforced - A Leap into the Dark - Album Cover

The RMR crew just enjoyed a bout of olde thrash/trad goodness. Something so retro, it feels like a fucking time machine to the ’80s. But here, we got ourselves some young guns, comparatively speaking with some different flavor.

Enforced started back in 2016 and continued to move full steam ahead, brutalizing everything and everyone in its path. So far, RMR never had the pleasure to welcome them to our roster. And the experience for this short blurb has been like witnessing a bunch of MOABs (Mother of All Bombs) in uncontrollable detonations. A thunderous delivery that made us sit … [...] Click to raid more!

Ha! Yet another candidate for the RMR n00bs section. Never too old to be one, you know. Dark Tranquility is yet another of these old metal warhorses that never made it onto the RMR review pipe. Thus, for us, they’re firstcomers despite the band’s undeniable contribution to the holy books of The Lore ov Metal. After all, they’ve been in business since 1991 – and continually so.

Very – and I mean very – intense and so full of clichés it almost hurt. On the other hand, the thing also was equally insanely enjoyable. A fun record that ran for weeks on our music machine.

After that, we somewhat lost sight of the band and never got around to covering more of their wares. Until today, that is, with their newest output called … [...] Click to raid more!

Rotting Christ - A Dead Poem - Album Cover

Rotting Christ, the band name from hell that haunted parents and religious bigots all over the world for the last 35 years or so. Yet, this band became a firm staple of this here zine. And we’re not done with it.

The band just announced a new record for this Year of the Dark Lord 2024, and it’s thus time to get yet another look at the past. Old, tasty slabs of early Extreme Metal that we haven’t quite savored yet. Metal wisdom from a time that didn’t sport too much metallic fare (yet). The 1997 piece A Dead … [...] Click to raid more!
