RETALIATION

"Breaking bones, hearts and spirits since 1993"

About Me


RTLN formed back in 1993 as a 2 man band. later that same year 2 more were added. in 1999 our fifth member joined the band. now it's been almost 15 years and thus far we've managed to produce two demos (on tape ofcourse), five 7" eps (of which one is STILL unreleased), one 12" and 3 mcd's (and one of those is also STILL unreleased) and one full length cd. we're NOT a productive band. we're not the fastest band. we never intended to be. but we would like to think that we put out some swedish quality grindcore. a bit more brutal than the rest, a little crazier than the rest. and when we put out new stuff we'd like to think that people want it. they need it. they CRAVE it. Coz it IS brutal, it IS CRAZY and goddammit it IS AWESOME! though they might not admit it now, band like Nasum and Regurgitate are influenced by us. and if THAT isn't telling you something...
i don't know what will.
