Self-titled new album out on August 30th!
Speed/thrash metal aficionados, get ready for a sonic onslaught! For fans of bands like Destruction, Megadeth, Heathen, and Traitor, Rezet’s sixth album promises to deliver the adrenaline-fueled, riff-heavy experience they crave. Hailing from Schleswig in Northern Germany, Rezet has become synonymous with uncompromising thrash metal, blending the ferocity of the genre’s classics with a modern twist.
“Rezet” features eleven blistering tracks, including a unique piano intro, showcasing the band’s evolution and maturity. The album seamlessly weaves between the golden era of thrash metal and contemporary influences, offering fans a new, devastating experience.
This release marks a new chapter for Rezet, with the addition of string sorcerer Nikolay Atanasov (AGENT STEEL) and bassist Lorenz Kandolf (TRAITOR) to the lineup. They join the band’s founder, singer, guitarist, and main composer Ricky Wagner, along with exceptional drummer Bastian “attt” Santen. The result is a lineup that sounds stronger and more energized than ever before.
Produced, mixed, and mastered by the renowned Eike Freese (HELLOWEEN, DEEP PURPLE, HEAVEN SHALL BURN), “Rezet” was partly recorded at the band’s own “Rad Toad Studios” in Schleswig-Holstein. The album’s dystopian artwork, created by Pär Oloffsson (Exodus, Aborted, Pathology, Traitor, Finsterforst), depicts a mechanical landscape being reclaimed by new life, echoing the album’s themes of renewal and aggression.
“This album represents a second spring for Rezet,” says the band. “It’s honest, direct and bursting with aggressiveness. We’ve never sounded fresher.”
