Ruthless
Ruthless debuted on the infamous indie label Iron Works with their
Metal Without Mercy EP in 1984, and then recorded their
(until recently)
sole
full-length album,
Discipline Of Steel, two years later.
This was classic 80's pre-thrash metal, certainly not the most
original of bands (the song titles kind of give that away), but
enjoyable in its time.
Almost thirty years later (!), the band released
They Rise in 2015.
