WARGASM, MELIAH RAGE, ONLY LIVING WITNESS Members Appear On ROBOT MONSTER ARMY Debut
May 13, 2009, 15 years ago
WARGASM frontman Bob Mayo’s ROBOT MONSTER ARMY project has recently released its debut album, currently available from all major online digital music outlets. Robot Monster Army features performances by members of several renowned Boston-area metal bands, including MELIAH RAGE, ONLY LIVING WITNESS, STEEL ASSASSIN, TRIPHAMMER, TEMPORARY INSANITY, BAD KARMA and more. Mayo’s old cohorts in Wargasm also appear.
Robot Monster Army track listing: 'Flame On!', 'Halfway', 'Red Planet', 'Gazelle', 'Your Dog’s Teeth', 'Nerve Damage/Nerve Ending', 'She’s The Future', 'We’re All Going To Hell', 'On The Moon'.
All of the material was written solely by Mayo. “The music has much more of a late-'70’s hard rock vibe, it’s not the thrash/power metal that I did with Wargasm”, says Mayo, “because I wanted to pay tribute to the era that inspired me to play music... I wanted to make a metal record that sounds like it could have maybe come out in 1978. And with this collection of players, I mean the best of the best metal musicians from the New England area, it really rocks hard. I think it will surprise a lot of people.”
Each Robot Monster Army release will benefit a worthy cause; a portion of the proceeds generated from the RMA debut will benefit Rawkstars, a non-profit organization that provides musical instruments and instruction to needy Boston-area kids (www.Rawkstars.org).
