It's well worth a spin or two if you are partial to a bit of Biohazard. It's good even without the ethereal wisps of Pete Steele to round it out

There's career changes and then there`s that  ???

The drum tone on RRR sounds , to me, exactly like the drum tone on BK by Type O. Loud with a lot reverb.

Absolutely. Even some of the drum patterns/ fills are identical. He has a unique style without a doubt. But I'm referring also to the style of riffs. The big Sabbath grooves mixed with breakdowns, the melodic,  dramatic vocals and then gang chants lobbed in here and there. The gloomy HC and poppy mix is heavily Type O inspired yet they arrived at their own sound despite those parallels.

Sal Abruscato played on both RRR and BK. The feel bad to be transferred between both albums either on purpose or by accident.

This is a nice touch. Quite from Billy Graziadei's Facebook:
