Redrum - Suspicious Package ©2004

From the lower East-Side streets of Kansas City, Missouri lingers a sound that can only be described as “the next level of old school”. Redrum’s self written, recorded and produced debut disc titled “Suspicious Package” featuring a 19-track entourage’ of solid grooves perfectly blended with the untouchable rhyming skills of Big Shane better known as the “White Devil”.

With "Suspicious Package" the duo flaunts a variety of different musical styles and skillfully delivers an assault of intoxicating rock and roll rhythm, rap-core, metal and blues tunes. Redrum’s unique sound has been described as a breath of fresh air to a genre of music that has grown stagnant and is choking from the influx of shock rock, death metal, and unimaginative commercialism.

Redrum was formed in 2002 when guitarist Timothy Walters (Timmy Wonder) recruited the then still active O.T.W (Offthawall) front man Shane Hall (Redrum) to record what he believed could be the next big rap-rock duo to make it to the top. Tim had known Shane from childhood and had listened to him rap many times and had always known Shane had something very rare. “I believed he could go heads up with anyone!” He is definitely a kracker with a slick mack!” The newly formed duo initially agreed to write and record a quick promotional 5-track demo. Tim would handle the music and Shane would concentrate on and lay down the vocal tracks. The finished product stacked with 13 powerhouse original tunes was quickly deemed worthy and titled “Suspicious Package.” Suspicious Package delivers punch after punch of funky old-school true-life rhymes backed by a solid and creative musical flow. “There is something for everyone” says Shane whose early influences include Ice Cube, Too Short, & BDP. “We were really able to show our diversity on this album” From the lyrical assault of “Stop Tha Fakin” to the heartfelt ballads like “Take Us Away” and “Heavy Reign” Suspicious Package caters to all genres and is destined to deliver Redrum to the ranks of the industries elite monopoly.
