“Hearing Remfry is having a tough time, thought I’d pop in a review to point out that as with many folks, I myself had a pretty horrid time over the last couple of years, so just wanted to say how this insightful, honest, relatable and above all extremely entertaining and funny podcast really...”Read full review »

“Meh! Used to love these guys and TNM, but now pop and rap. Sad as they actually speak well and the production is very good. I mean, damn! Much better music in the underground, but apparently The Satanist is better than Fas.”

“It’s really clear how much preparation and thought goes into these shows, which are free every week and usually over 2 hours in length.
You are in good hands, every week Remfry and Steve bring a bunch of new reviews from a pretty wide variety of bands under the ‘alternative’ umbrella. They have...”Read full review »

“Love this show, always entertaining, great mixture of music genres reviewed in depth and with often hilarious asides. (And unlike Steve’s previous podcast, the hosts respectfully allow each other to have a different opinion!) Great banter and chemistry between the two, long may it reign!”

“What started out as a fun, interesting and insightful music podcast, has become an elitist, boring and frankly ulistenable mess. Let's ignore all of Remfrey's pretentious, overused phrases, the sheer level of bordeom that strikes whilst listening to this podcast these days is quite...”Read full review »

The regular show is the first thing I listen to when available and the specials go into great depth and are always really interesting. The passion and interest in the...”Read full review »

“From all the latest sounds in rock and metal through to cutting-edge pop and hip-hop, Riot Act covers SO much ground in acting as a gateway to discovering many modern alternative sounds. As well as sharing their knowledge and opinions, you may also want to stay for the lols especially when Steve...”Read full review »

“I’m writing this review in the hopes that the creators get wind of the numerous mistakes and assumptions they’ve made in this episode. So far I’m about 10 minutes in and the amount of incorrect things shared is quite glaring:
*The songs did not originate from jam sessions. Omar was quite...”Read full review »

“This podcast has opened up so many new bands for me to check up. Although from a metal listening background, discovering artists like Fiona Apple has been awesome.
I might not like all the bands they suggest, but that isn’t the point, it’s more about being open to new genres”

There’s a huge diversity of artists featured which always keeps things interesting, and they keep me in stock of new artists and music. Tbh I’d be a bit lost without this in my ears every week.

“I’ve always loved metal and punk podcasts because they are more passionate about music than the more pop and rock audio journalism. Riot Act gives me that passion, but with a wider music base to pull from! Alternative music is a many splendid beast, and I’m picking up on new albums to explore...”Read full review »
