We're Not Old...
We're Vintage!

But seriously, we're a band... we play metal...
What more do you need to know?!

So, what is Retribution, exactly?

Well, first up, there's something you should know... We always do things in one of two ways... sometimes even both!
We usually either approach things somewhat seriously or in a very, VERY silly way.

Confused? Perhaps this is best illustrated by the biography you will find below. Just switch between the two buttons and you'll probably see what we mean!

Taking this into account, which version of our biography would you like to see?

Formed in August 2003, Retribution is a Dutch Death/Thrash metal band, whose members emerged from various local bands. The guys are loaded with over 15 years of Metal experience, diverse musical preferences, a sense of humor and some impressive manes. Retribution’s music can be described as a mix of bands like: At the Gates, Hypocrisy and Kreator. They are trying to break new ground, without losing touch with the bands that inspired them over the years.

With the arrival of a steady bass player in April 2006, they were finally complete. Currently having four releases to their name and a fifth in the works, the guys are ready as ever to take on stages everywhere, and kick some serious ass!

So if you’ve got an earache, and you don’t know where it came from. And if you can find them, maybe you can blame...

RETRIBUTION!!!

The heroic call of the ancients runs deep through the souls of the mountainfolk. An eerie feel of death and decay permeates the very rock of this barren kingdom, yet I hear the fish there are especially nice and juicy. Everything, except for that silly moose on the riverside (he just doesn’t seem to want to leave!), is black and dark... and shiny!

Then, as the heavens part with a mighty thunderclap, a ray of hope sheds its alluring light on the ancient castle towers up on the hill, and the sounds of screams and torture seem to vanish in the fog. “RETRIBUTION...”; the battle cry echoes through the night, luring creatures of the dark out of their decrepit tombs and simultaneously warning people to stay indoors and well out of the way of the horrors that lurk in the dark...

Luckily, Retribution brought their pink, fluffy towels, their inflatable unicorn life rafts and their industrial strength breath mints! Thusly armed, the fearsome foursome storms the gates of the grand castle on the mighty red mountain, where they do battle with the mighty wizard. After an arduous battle, Retribution kicks the foul enchanter off his thorny throne and restore a small semblance of peace to this dark and grim world. Thus it came to pass that Retribution rules all!

Oh, and they also play metal...

So if you’ve got an earache, and you don’t know where it came from. And if you can find them, maybe you can blame...

RETRIBUTION!!!
