Witch Piss – The Devil Doesn’t Burn (2026) – Review

Witch Piss - The Devil Doesn't Burn - Album Cover

Ah, the Satanik Panik is back amongst us yet again. Allegedly. At least judging by the flame-ridden album cover and the entry monologue on the first track. All of that comes from a band geniusly called Witch Piss, no less. A work of ‘art’ that’s so typically late ’70s, I want to go find a time machine and correct this ever-returning theme.

And then, their album moniker bluntly states that The Devil Doesn’t Burn. Doesn’t it, now? Mankind has yet to find out, methinks. But I digress. Let’s see if this message of fire, brimstone, and social depravity … [...] Click to raid more!

Suncraft – Welcome to the Coven (2025) – Review

Suncraft - Welcome to the Coven - Album Cover

Unctuous stonerware was oozing out of our loudspeakers back in 2021. Suncraft was the outfit’s name, a band totally unknown to the RMR crew. And for cause. Flat Earth Rider, their debut album, sounded like something concocted in one of Cirkus Prütz‘ abandoned giant tents in cahoots with some hidden weed producer. Allegedly.

A record containing a lot of progression, some limited emotion, but little substance otherwise.1 Apart from loads of red-hot, well-chiseled Heavy Rock, that is. A feature that rarely garnishes this zine’s review pipe.

So, here we got ourselves a record featuring a limited core band created by Dirk Verbeuren (Megadeth) and Sylvain [...] Click to raid more!

Newsflash: Lauren Babic has Too Much and Never Enough!

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!
