Regarding their partnership with Metal Blade and Blacklight Media, the band says, "RXPTRS are honored to be joining the Metal Blade Records family and starting our journey with Blacklight Media. Those that know the band know we work our knuckles bloody, stand up for everything we believe in, and leave the bulls**t at the door, so there's no other team we'd rather be a part of."
Blacklight Media Records' Chris Santos comments, "I'm so excited that RXPTRS has joined the Blacklight Media/Metal Blade Records Family! I was instantly hooked the first time I heard and saw them, by their unique blend of infectiously heavy riffs, insanely catchy lyrics, and their all around rock 'n' roll swagger! This is a band that's going places and I couldn't be happier to take the ride with them! 2022 will be the year of the RXPTR!”
RXPTRS (pronounced "Raptors") are a new wave of British rock. The energetic quintet combines ferocious grit with an ear for melody. Built upon the backdrop of the UK, the fiercely creative, long-term friends set out with a sonic mission statement to not succumb to a single barrier, to push boundaries and go beyond the limit of genres, creating a raw sound that is unmistakably their own. Each raucous track is laced with lyrical depth as RXPTRS lay it all on the line. They state, "Music is a vessel, this is how we channel the experiences that have shaped us. This is how we bare our scars." Quickly becoming renowned for their explosive live performances, the group's hardcore following continues to grow. Their workhorse mentality towards touring has seen them light up stages across the UK and Europe alongside the likes of Escape the Fate, King 810, As It Is, Light the Torch, and more. RXPTRS' visceral energy continues to infect the population as they cut their teeth on the live scene, with no sign of slowing, they’re truly hellbent on showing everyone the way of the RXPTR.

Lyrics:
The chamber’s packed, we all will drown
A constant cycle in a spiral to the ground
Now I hate myself for the state you’re in
Under the mess I found you in shackles as
The vultures circle round
There must be something more
You were the one thing I wanted to save
A drop in the ocean causing tidal waves
Done with the parasites
Now I cling to life in the flames
You remain as I fade
As heavens call, you’ll bury us all
All shallow thoughts pave way for hollow charades
You’re making tightropes from razor blades
My fickle friend the light is draining away
Swan dive as you fall upon black days
There’s no way back this time
Your soul fades, an angel in decline
For God sake it never crossed your mind
The high stakes have robbed you blind
You were the one thing I wanted to save
A drop in the ocean causing tidal waves
Done with the parasites
Now I cling to life in the flames
You remain as I fade
As heavens call, you’ll bury us all
I sat in silence out in the cold
In black tides I sank like a stone
Bury the ashes and scatter the bones
I let her go
There’s no words to describe
The bloodstains on you and I
For God’s sake the piercing lie
That scarred face will heal in time
You were the one thing I wanted to save
A drop in the ocean causing tidal waves
(I’m) Done with the parasites and the flames
I remain as you fade
As heavens call, you’ll bury us all
