Now THIS is more like it.......2006-08-13
Awesome Album.......2005-12-09
Pure Horseshit.......2005-10-29
It's everything you expect from the industrial/black metal genre.......2005-10-13
You can tell just from the album cover and title what you're in for here. Industrial effects are demolished by crushing riffs during the opening of "Useless". Vocalist Scott Rose walks the fine line between manic screamer and tortured vocalist. Despite the fury and anger, the chorus comes off with shades of melody. Rose switches from creepy to furious with his vocal work on "Hollywood". He's backed up by a wall of distortion as he describes how fake Hollywood truly is. I was quick to dismiss "Blister" as an all out scream fest, but it's more of a multifaceted vocal arrangement. One again the rhythm section leaves you ears ringing. Chunky riffs and evil snarls give way to somber tones, and vice versa on "Bitter Words". The EPs title track may just be the rally cry theme song of the Dark Lord.
The Bad
Nothing notable
The Verdict
This isn't usually the kind of music that I enjoy, but this album somehow drew me in. It's everything you expect from the industrial/black metal genre (The group even looks the part). The Anything for the Devil EP is chock full of catchy, devastating riffs and hardcore, angry vocals that have just the right amount of melody. Get your gauze pads ready, because the blood from your ears will be coming early.
Excellent EP Debut.......2005-09-18
Erase the Grey released an excellent EP back in 2002, but differences in the band forced the group to break up in early 2003. Scott Rose(ex lead vocalist of Erase the Grey) and a few other members formed Rikets, while the other half formed Shenoah. Shenoah's release is excellent as well, but I don't think it's as good as the Rikets EP release. Rikets uses some good guitar work from Switched guitarist Bradley Kochmit to add a solid sound to the music. The sampling and keyboarding in the music is well done and goes well together with the music. Most sampling and keyboarding in alot of industial heavy music sucks these days, so this is a plus for them. Lead Vocalist Scott Rose has a powerful voice and he blends his melodic vocals well with his screams, and he doesn't try to wear out his screaming like alot of vocalist's do. The druming and bass are very well done on this EP, but don't offer anything groundbreaking or stand out like the rest of the sound, but that doesn't take away from the music this band produces.
If you were to classify this group they would probably be thrown into the genre of Industrial Rock/Metal. They remind me alot of the heavier side of American Head Charge. Industrial music ,while not vastly popular, and not near as mainstream as most of the crap being produced today, is steadily on the rise. I would say that Rikets is in the top half of their teir, in their genre. With that being said if you are into heavy music or really into Industrial Rock/Metal then this EP will definately not disappoint you. A very solid effort from these guys, with all the tracks being well over average. I can't wait til they release a full length album. 4 Stars !!
