About
With their sixth, self-titled studio album, REZET are back with full force!
Eleven songs and a piano intro offer listeners first-class speed/thrash metal, which fits easily between international classics from the 80s and 90s, as well as the latest tips from today.
The recordings seem like a second spring for the band: honest, direct, fresh and ultra heavy!
This may be one of the strongest and most mature line-ups in the band’s history. At the beginning of the previous year, none other than the string sorcerer Nikolay Atanasov (AGENT STEEL), who comes from Bulgaria and lives in Denmark, was recruited. He complements the line-up with the bassist Lorenz Kandolf (TRAITOR among others), who joined beforehand. Since the debut “Have Gun, Will Travel” (2010), which is now considered a classic in the “New Wave of Thrash Metal”, the core of the group has been band founder, singer, guitarist and main composer Ricky Wagner, as well as the exceptional Drummer Bastian “attt” Santen. REZET has never sounded so fresh and bursting with aggressiveness.
The album was once again produced, mixed and mastered by Eike Freese (HELLOWEEN; DEEP PURPLE; HEAVEN SHALL BURN and many more), Hamburg’s rock & metal producer par excellence! Furthermore, parts of the recordings being recorded in the band’s own “Rad Toad Studios” in the far north of Schleswig-Holstein.
Pär Oloffsson (Exodus, Aborted, Pathology, Traitor, Finsterforst and many more) offers the dystopian visualization of the disc and paints the picture of a mechanical landscape that is being reclaimed by new life. The “great reset” has probably never been so close…
