They’re young, they’re hungry, and that’s a good thing. Teen band or not, Freeze The Fall boast a musical prowess well beyond their years. And all of that comes with a professional media marketing package that’s almost flawless in nature and execution. But it ain’t snazzy marketing that got our attention, it’s that irresistible sound roaring out of our mighty music machine.

The Red Garden boasts a mix of Alternative and Heavy Rock and a few crazy jaunts into Metalcore country. Plus, you’ll have the pleasure of enjoying some remnants of Nu-Metal that raise their ugly heads suddenly. The band’s … [...] Click to raid more!

Lauren Babic - Too Much and Never Enough - Album Cover

Those who have followed the RMR zine for a while, probably discovered that we like the unexpected and the weird. Genre-benders that go out on a limb to stand out and shine. But only if the stuff they strut is well done and has some valor attached.

Meet Lauren Babic and her EP Too Much and Never Enough. She mixes synth-pop songs with some beatz and metallic musings. Something like Taylor Swift on speed from a dark and dystopian universe. First, you’ll get some poppy tunes thrown at ye. But those morph quickly into some caustic Punk attack. … [...] Click to raid more!
