Following its own motto: “contemporary sound - old-school at heart”, the Romanian metal/thrash act Rezistor is dedicated to delivering a simple yet tasteful doze of traditional metal in a modern outfit. Injecting groove into a mix of thrash, power, hardcore and heavy metal and bearing various influences, from Slayer, to Sepultura, to Pantera and even Rammstein, the band is focused on finding the perfect balance between aggression and melody.
Rezistor was born in Constanta, Romania (EU), in November 2008, after the band members decided to quit their former bands, in order to create more dynamic & aggressive music. It was time to go back to basics and simply enjoy writing and playing music, rather than getting caught in all the technicalities that drive musicians away from their real goal: creating music.
Rezistor's songs are simple and stripped of any unnecessary "gimmicks" in order to get back to the core of metal music: the perfect rhythms for headbanging. As metal fans themselves, the band members know that most people attending a gig are more interested in how tight a song sounds, or how much groove a guitar riff has, rather than senseless displays of virtuosity - and that's exactly what Rezistor is set to deliver: raw, but effective tunes for the mosh pit.
