Rikets

"An infectious sound"..."A journey into chaos"..."Pure genius!"...All things you can find stated in rave reviews from the bands initial release in 2005,("Anything for the devil"),from Rolling Stone,UltimateGuitar,search engines such as "Google.com" or "Yahoo.com", all the way down to all the smaller web and prints zines that matter to a underground heavy weight such as "RIKETS".

The band blasted on to the national circuit in 2005 with a blistering release of a five song e.p. which featured a appearance from Logan Mader(Soulfly,Machinehead,Medication)who also co-produced and mixed the record alongside Ben Schigel and Rose.

The record saw two releases via corporate punishment records going on to sell over 10,000 copies independently with no major distribution, mtv or radio.

The band spent the past year and a half touring in support of that record, seeing tour dates with,Nothingface,Earshot,Korn,Breaking Benjamin,Seether,Flyleaf,Buckcherry,Evans blue,Allele,American head charge,Triggerpoint as well as a slew of headlining club dates thru the U.S.

In recent news parts of the U.S. have been targeted as upcoming "crime scenes"...stay tuned for more evidence.
