Boiler Room – Rectify

Description

Former Roadrunner and Tommy Boy / Warner Brothers recording artists Boiler Room are back! Originaly formed in 1996 in New York City, Boiler Room released their self-titled, independent album that same year produced by future Guns N’ Roses guitarist Ron “Bumblefoot” Thal. The addition of Rob Caggiano (Anthrax, Volbeat) in 1998 began a creative writing relationship between him and singer Chris Lino and elevated the band’s sound and performance. 1999 saw the band opening for nationally recognized acts along the East Coast, including Type O Negative, Life of Agony, Clutch and Static-X, helping them catch the attention of renowned NYC radio station 92.3 K-ROCK. The band disbanded in 2001, with Caggiano leaving to join Anthrax and the other members dispersing into various projects. Chris Lino connected with Mike Orlando (Adrenaline Mob) to work on a project. The two remained friends, and in 2022, Orlando reached out to Chris and suggested that he consider re-recording and re-releasing some of Boiler Room’s previously released songs. All the songs were co-produced, mixed, mastered, and engineered by Mike Orlando at his Sonic Stomp Studio in New York City. Jason Bittner (Shadows Fall, Category 7, Overkill) was brought in to play drums on the album while Orlando laid down the rhythm guitars. Ron ‘Bumblefoot’ Thal guest appears on the title track ‘Rectify’ Rizzi laid down the bass, and current guitarist Nick Seditious (Soraia, Out of Exile) performed solos on select tracs. The band recruited Tommy Spano (Sekond Skyn, A Pale Horse Named Death, Corey Glover) on drums to round out the current lineup.
