Riding With Killers released their debut album Full Circle in December of 2023 but has since focused on multiple singles and music videos from the effort, and tracks such as “Hostility” have found great success at secondary radio stations all around the United States. Other notable singles from the effort include “Novelty” and the track “DNA,” a hard-hitting track behind the music that has powerful meaning with Robert’s profoundly personal and candid lyric writing. Riding With Killers holds nothing back and has found a strong connection with audiences live and online because of both the music and the vulnerability of Roberts in his lyrics and interviews with major podcasts, magazines, and blogs. The band is connecting on all levels, and Riding With Killers is destined to be a major force over the long term.
Riding With Killers stands out with its fresh, unique blend of alt, rock, and metal. Led by Taylor Roberts, guitarist of Taproot, RWK’s sound is a fusion of their past experiences fronting and writing for multiple groups, including Wild Fire and Cathercist. The band’s fiery mix of 90’s alt-rock, industrial, and nu-metal, balanced with infectious choruses and memorable, bounce-worthy guitar riffs, sets them apart in the music scene. “DNA” and Full Circle were produced by Matthew Laplant (Nonpoint, Skindred, Sikth etc).
