Revocation is one of the bands for me where I could rank its albums from best to worst, but they're all in such close competition that they're almost interchangeable. That being said, 2009's Existence Is Futile was the first one I ever heard and it absolutely destroyed my mind. How the hell was one dude playing all those riffs? Who the fuck is Dave Davidson and is he a machine?
"Monolith Ignorance" gives me the exact same vibe, though now it's Davidson and Dan Gargiulo. The song is just relentlessly heavy with a new "what the fuck" moment at every single turn. Kudos to ex-3 Inches of Blood drummer Ash Pearson for nailing his first record with the band too!
Great Is Our Sin will be out July 22 via Metal Blade, and you can pre-order it right here.
