Revocation Original Pit Photos Ultra Lounge 4/23/12








4-23-12 Revocation Headlines Ultra Lounge, Cannabis Corpse opens
Revocation...kickin' ass and makin' faces at Ultra Lounge, Chicago






We caught up with Revocation at tiny but mighty Ultra Lounge in Chicago in April of 2012.    They bring it on stage with a vengeance, and leave the fans loudly chanting "One more song!"    These boys are ones to watch.  We saw them open for Eluveitie at Bottom Lounge a couple months before that, in February, and it was great to catch them playing a longer set as headliners.   Cannabis Corpse provided support.




After the show, ChiIL Live Shows got an exclusive video interview with the guys.  They're unpretentious, friendly, and quick with the come backs.    If metal doesn't pan out, these guys are a shoe in for the comedy circuit.   It's one of the most amusing interviews we've done recently.  I seriously wanna throw these guys on a tour bus with Red Fang and shoot a reality show! 




For the time being, they're traveling the country in a van that keeps trying to kill them.  So far this year, when they've come through Chi-Town, they've rocked Bottom Lounge, Ultra Lounge, Reggie's Rock Club, and Cobra Lounge so who knows where they might show up next!  






Come on back to ChiIL Live Shows like we vote in Chi, IL...early and often, and you'll be one of the first to know where they're heading.   If metal's your medicine, check 'em out.  Highly recommended!

"Hey all thanks so much for coming out and raging with us for the past 5 weeks on the Children of Bodom, Eluveitie and Threat Signal tour! It was a wild ride, and we're sad to see it pass. But we are beyond psyched to now announce our headlining run in April with Cannabis Corpse and Ramming Speed. Expect a longer set with some new tracks and some old classics. These shows are gonna kill, see you there!!"

REVOCATION's Dave Davidson also recently posted an exclusive guitar lesson for Chaos of Forms track "Cradle Robber" online at JamPlay.com. Davidson is one of the newest teachers at JamPlay.   A 5-minute demo of his new lesson can be viewed now at YouTube. 

Grab their latest release, "Chaos of Forms", if you haven't already.   Revocation says "It's rippin' metal...about 45 minutes long.  There's like 12 songs on it.   The cover's got a redish hue.   The logo's hard to read on the front.   It's pointy too.  And no one likes it."   Oh yeah.

Biography on iTunes

Boston, MA trio Revocation is comprised of vocalist/guitarist David Davidson, vocalist/bassist Anthony Buda, and drummer Phil Dubois-Coyne — all of whom showcase incredible dexterity at their chosen instruments, even by heavy metal standards, and came together as a group in 2005. Armed with a super-technical thrash/death metal style prizing virtuosity as much as heaviness and aggression, the group soon began attracting A&R men from numerous labels with their self-released Summon the Spawn EP (2006) and Empire of the Obscene album (2008). They eventually decided to sign with Relapse Records, and delivered their second full-length, Existence Is Futile, in September 2009, also to very positive reviews.   Buy/Download Chaos of Forms and Revocation's past 2 CDs here.
