RTPN is a finnish electronic/industrial rock/metal duo founded by Asko Katiska and Sami Anttila at 2003. Couldn't find a lot about this group except they made some Celldweller and Subkulture remixes in the past.

A lot of hidden industrial rock gems on this compilation. Very similar to Celldweller, Blue Stahli, Subkulture. I gotta say, it's better than those last two, and close to Celldweller's debut in terms of quality (better consistency at least). The guitar riffs are a bit straightforward (Crossfire, Inside, etc.) or memorable, like in the opener, Awakening. Some good trance beats here and there : Pulse, Termination, Shattered. An enjoyable ride. The guitar on Aftershock, on the other hand, is annoying and grating. Some darker, bleaker moods in Feedback and Abyss has a nice drum sequence going on. Mostly instrumental, but features whispering vocals (good), minimal spoken words or clean vocals on some songs, and muffled growling on Trigger (bad).

So, I wasn't expecting a lot based on how little I could find about them. I was instead, pleasantly surprised. Too long for me, I could remove probably 5-6 filler songs. It's energetic and has a nice mixture of different genres.

My rating : ★★★★★★★★☆☆

Ooo was able to catch up.
