"Fall Away offers us a further insight into the operation of a band who can work as one solid unit, a lead line ushering the track into being before the funky rhythms pick up once again, throwing you into a pit of downright pure, unadulterated metal goodness." - Loud-stuff.com

Fall Away

This song features original member Dan Cangemi doing a guest solo. He was part of the original writing process and we had to fet him back for the rerecording of this to be featured as a 'B' side on the single 'DROP!'

Devil's Fire feat. Dan Cangemi

 ‘One Red Rose’ in particular is notable for its sheer emotional weight – Mitchell’s vocals convey a perfect combination of pain, loss, and reflection, while the delicate strums of the guitars genuinely tug at the heartstrings.

One Red Rose

"From a horror movie sample the release drops a resonating burst of sound, dramatic and intimidating, before opening up into a Front Bookletbrawl of scavenging growls and scything riffs" - Ringmaster Review 

Intro (Night of the Living Dead)

"As the spoken word comes to a close and Zombified gets things going properly, you’re thrown into a melee of hammering guitar lines, pounding drums and powerful vocal lines – this is a hell of an intro! The music holds a funky edge, full to the brim with pulsating bass rhythms, pinch harmonics and deep drums which get you moving before you’ve had a second to realise what’s going on." - Loud-Stuff.com

Zombified

 “Lost in Ink kicks the pace up a bit, bringing  a touch of Judas Priest-esque classic heavy metal to the table." 

- Metal Obsession

Lost In Ink

" Immediately followed by the like-minded ‘Cursed’, the band have put together an iron-fisted one-two punch that will have you banging your head like a maniac in no time – fans of 80s metal in any way, shape or form should feel right at home here."

- Spaceship News

Cursed

"No Strings Attached breaks through the darkness for a bit, with lyrics that make Steel Panther look subtle" - Metal Obsession



No Strings Attached (explicit)

For five years, Reaper's Riddle have built a solid reputation as one of Perth's most dynamic and hard-working heavy music acts. Exploding onto the scene in 2009 with their self-titled LP demo, the band's record-breaking debut launch resulted in a packed-out venue being completely sold out of alcohol by 11pm. This highly successful event left an indelible impression on the local rock/metal scene and captured the attention of key music industry figures, including Adam Weston (Birds Of Tokyo) who released the 'Reaper's Riddle demo' through his Firestarter Distribution label. 

Whilst pleased with this development, the band declined opportunities to promote the demo more widely. Knowing they could produce a superior record with higher production quality, Reapers returned to the studio and in 2011 emerged with the internationally-acclaimed 'A Touch Of Death EP', produced by Rob Agostini of 'Soundbaker Studios'. Widely praised for its catchy hooks, diverse range and potent delivery, A Touch Of Death was unleashed at Perth's Amplifier Bar to a swarm of rabid fans and has since received rave reviews and radio play at home and across the globe. 

A few line-up changes later, with a slew of regional tours, several interstate and international support slots (including The Getaway Plan [Melbourne, Vic], and The Misfits [US]), charity and community events, and years of constant local gigging now under their belts, Reaper's Riddle have cut their teeth and honed their craft across Perth's city stages and WA's country pubs. Renowned for their theatrical, high-energy performances, the band continues to raise the bar on the intensity and creativity of their stage-show and overall aesthetic.

In August 2013, the new single 'Drop' was successfully launched, along with the premier of band's debut music-video, produced by Perth-based ZenCo. Productions. The result was a total-package of sensory rapture: hard-rocking tunes, high-voltage performances and now the spectacular visual/multimedia dimension of Reaper's Riddle finally coming to life. The single and its accompanying film-clip showcase a refined Reaper of immaculate execution with increasingly solid direction and intense focus. Acting as something of a prequel to the highly-anticipated concept album 'The Ballad Of Tristan Daye' (expected for release in mid-2015), Drop is the latest example of the band's unique yet familiar, and highly memorable, style and sound.

With the growing awareness of the latest 'Game Over EP', a growing base of loyal fans and supporters worldwide, be ready as Reaper's Riddle prepare to let loose their entertaining and dramatic live show on the rest of Australia and the world!!
