Peace Minus One |E-Magine Entertainment, 2000|

A Toast, Peace Minus One, Educated Hate, Shocking, Wicked Within, Satan, Gridlock, Spent, Fornicator, Rollercoaster, Slaves, The Most Horrible Word Ever Spoken, Come


They stand somewhere between Pitchshifter, Treponem Pal, N17 or Skrew what means - industrial metal vibes.
'A Toast' song says about bar friendships and as for 'Satan', it's placed in refreshed versions on three RT albums. The fast drive comes on 'Gridlock', but 'Spent' song knocked me out. 'Rollercoaster' remains me Slayer ventures and 'Come' includes some of Testament vibes. The title relates to the new American generation compared to the hippie culture. The recognizable V for the peace sign was changed. Take off one of the two fingers and you will get a new American society is called 'Peace minus one".

Unclean | Slipdisc, 1998|

Satan, Elvis, Sex, Cripple Touch, Blow Up America, Wheel of Misfortune, Song For Other Me, Monster, Lament, Slow Leak, Hold, Clean, Elvis (Dis-Graceland Mix)


I knew RT from Cyber Core Compilation where 'Elvis' song was included. The same 'Elvis' in its original shape sounds even better on this album. Powerful guitar riffs and lots of dynamics. There are more songs like Elvis and they kick ass even more to mention excellent Wheel of Misfortune, Blow Up America or Clean. Metal drives with a bit of sampling and a bit distorted, full of hatred vocals. Other than that Unclean includes silenced and murky songs like Song For Other Me or Lament. I still don't like the female vocals in Sex. But what is the sex without a proper woman? ;) If I ever led any radio show than Blow Up America would be played over and over again because of its cold leading guitar riff and a bit pop vibe :)
