Black Mercy Riffs

Black Mercy Riffs is a Los Angeles–based rock band formed in late 2019. The group features Riot Rob on rhythm guitar and lead vocals, Fabio Molina on lead guitar, Uli The Tyrant on lead bass, and formerly Kenny Ravage on drums. Known for their raw and explosive energy, their sound is often described as "rock ’n’ roll for the heavy soul," blending heavy metal and hard rock influences. The band has persevered through lineup changes, including losing multiple bass players and guitarists over the years, but remains committed to their craft, having taken about seven years to reach their current level of activity.

They have released several singles and albums, including the digital album "Laid to Rest" released on December 25, 2023, as a thank-you to their supporters. Other notable releases include singles like "Trigger Point" and "Easy Livin." The band’s music and story reflect persistence and the spirit of rock ‘n’ roll, with deep roots in the Los Angeles music scene and a DIY approach to their career development.
