Rum Runners are a band from Australia that plays a very epic form of folk metal and this is a review of their self released 2025 ep "Wreck And Revere".
Nature sounds start off the ep along with some folk instruments a few seconds later which also mixes in with the heavier sections of the songs. Melodies are also added into some of the guitar riffing while some of the recording also adds in a touch of classical music and some of the vocals bring in more of a power metal style.
All of the musical instruments also have a very powerful sound to them while the riffs also add in a lot of thrash metal elements. Blast beats are also added into the faster sections of the songs along with the solos and leads also being done in a very melodic style, black metal screams are also introduced in a later song and the recording also h as its progressive moments as well a s some clean playing also being added on the closing track.
Rum Runners plays a musical style that takes epic folk, black, thrash, power and progressive metal and mixes them together to create a sound of their own. The production sounds very professional while the lyrics cover pirate themes.
In my opinion Rum Runners are a very great sounding epic folk metal band and if you are a fan of this musical genre, you should check out this ep. RECOMMENDED TRACK "The Glory Is Mine". 8 out of 10.
