Ruthless - Curse of the Beast global-underground Culture Shocks debut album getsThe name RUTHLESS itself means without mercy. Since the early 1980s, led by vocalist Sammy DeJohn, the band has stayed true to its style of metal, from the classic first EP Metal Without Mercy (1984) and the debut cult album Discipline Of Steel (1986), to later albums They Rise (2015) and Evil Within (2019). Theyve never wavered in their devotion to the power of bands like JUDAS PRIEST, ACCEPT and BLACK SABBATH, always staying true to their roots.
