Intense Electronic Laced Metal - ChicksDigIt

About Me

"RIVETHEAD: Metal elements complement very well- done hard-rock songwriting." - Ayo, KDGE 102.1FM, Dallas
"The 13th Step is, without question, a monumental album, arguably the equal of any other record written and produced by the Dallas metal scene since Pantera imploded. Rivethead's aggressive-yet-beautiful brand of industrial metal is impressive. And their diversity of musical styles --while always remaining true to their heavy metal roots-- hopefully ensures that the band's distinctive sound will never get stale and predictable." - Todd Maternowski, Pegasus News - Dallas, TX
"I love this band. The music is so cutting edge and right where it needs to be for the taste of the industry right now." - Vix, Sugarbuzz Magazine - Oklahoma City, OK
"The 13th Step is a complex CD with many highs and lows. Steve is a master composer he has crafted an album that in my opinion is one of his best efforts to date. There is 14 tracks on this CD and I have to say I still want more!" - Chris Nite, Lit Monthly
"Industrial group/loud rock/nu-metal band from Dallas, Texas! RIVETHEAD releases a full-length album in 2008! Effect-processed, angry, shout vocals with a catchy feel; programmed beats; crunchy, metallic guitars; and a rhythm section with a tough groove combine for a great industrial style! Their sound mixes the style of Static-X, White Zombie and Metallica!" - O-Level, Japan
“To cut a long story short: this band convinces me right from the get go. The sound is a dirty hybrid somewhere in between Filter, Static X and Rammstein-light. The result is a inviting, somewhat rallying product which is supported by the Ministery-esque ADHD vocals of singer Steve Page.” – Frank D., Lords of Metal – The Netherlands
"Rivethead is an extraordinary combination of old industrial metal with Static X and Ministry. The album The 13th Step is kinda special and complex. From a brutal sound like Ministry it passess to soft track with piano and then continues with agressive riffs combined with electronic elements." - Malice, Metal Act - Romania

We're not angels. We've downloaded albums as well. But if we like them, we buy them. We're an unsigned band, which basically translates to: you get our album for free and we'll never be able to afford to tour to your town. We're not controlled by a big label that has its hands in our pockets. The money we make goes right back into merchandise and gas, hotels, etc. for us to be able to hook our fans up with cool shirts, free stickers and promo stuff and be able to put the best damn live show on, including robotic lights, strobes, black lights, fog machines, lasers, etc.. and to be able to afford to record more albums. We've already been to court twice because people have tried to rip us off - thankfully we were the victor in both cases. If you've downloaded our albums for free and dug it, please take a moment to at least hook us up with some beer money. It may be your 6-pack that helps us get in the groove to write your next favorite song! Thanks!!!

disclaimer - this was not our idea - we borrowed it from Psychostick!!! Love those guys!!!
