Publicist – Jon Asher – jon[@]ashermediarelations[.]com
“During the writing process, we embraced our inner gamer rage and transformed it into something raw, energetic, and unapologetic. I think old and new fans will really enjoy the heavier direction and approach we have adopted. Â Rage Quit is the soundtrack to our own gaming Journeys. We want to take them on a journey of nostalgia where they can remember their favorite video games. Â We want everyone to press start, turn up the volume, and prepare for battle when they hear our new album Rage Quit. Itâs our most intense, gaming-fueled album yet. ” – Rei Sega – Super Monster Party

About The Album Artwork:
The album artwork is a nod to the original style used in many Sega Genesis games.
About the album as a whole (LYRICALLY & MUSICALLY):
The album is a nostalgic journey through the eyes of âthe championâ. A young boy who enters the fictional world of Permadeath where Video Games are real and most certainly, dangerous. Song by Song you travel through these different games and take on the role of the hero or villain as the truth unfolds layer by layer.
Track by Track (LYRICALLY & MUSICALLY):
Altered Beast – Inspired by the 1988 Sega classic of the same name. It was one of the very first games I ever played on the Sega Genesis. Â Itâs intense right from the start just like the game.
Upon The Triforce – Inspired by the 1986 NES classic Zelda. I wanted to write a song that took you on Linkâs journey.
This is Doom! – Inspired by the classic 1993 PC game. It goes loud and hard from the start and doesn’t stop.
Another Castle – This monster ballad is inspired by the 1985 Original Mario Bros video game. It paints a picture of loving someone but sheâs somewhere else.
Test Your Might – Inspired by the original Mk1 and Mk2 video games from 1992 and 1993. Intense and epic just like the game.
Blue Hurricane â Is inspired by the original Sonic games of the 90âs such as Sonic 1, 2, 3, and Knuckles. It was one of the first video games I had ever played. I wanted it to sound epic and of course, fast.
Itâs Resident Evil – Inspired by the 1996 Capcom Zombie Horror Game. Itâs dark and broody with a very catchy chorus. Itâs a humorous and dark type of song.
Castlevania – Inspired by the 1986 NES classic of the same name. Itâs catchy and made to make you sing along from the very beginning.
Dance Dance Revolution (Till the Death) Inspired by the 1999 video game dance sensation. Itâs punchy with electro beats and catchy melodies for everyone to sing and dance along to.
Earthworm Jim – Inspired by the 1994 sci-fi shoot of the same name. Itâs fast, unpredictable, and epic.
Maximum Carnage – Inspired by the 1994 classic of the same name. Itâs the last song I wrote on the album. Itâs wild with its own twists and turns. I just like Cassidy himself.
One Winged Angel – Inspired by villain Sephoroth of the 1997 Final Fantasy 7 video game. I wanted to create an epic movie score-type vibes with elements of black metal and power metal.
