Everyone's a critic these days. It's pretty unavoidable, but as Revocation's Dave Davidson learned, if you give folks a pair of headphones and say, "Have a listen to this," most people have an open mind. Dave met some fine folks in the heart of New York City and asked folks to check out the Massachusetts tech-death outfit's latest work.
The responses ranged from "ooooh, that riff!" to "that is some heavy metal!" However, my personal favorite response was to a question Davidson asked, inquiring what one listener thought a band of such intensity should be called.
"Balls Destroyer," he proudly proclaimed. You can check the video out above.
Revocation is now streaming "Re-Crucified," the closer to their new record Netherheaven. The single features guest spots from the late and great Trevor Strnad of The Black Dahlia Murder, as well as legendary Cannibal Corpse vocalist George "Corpsegrinder" Fisher. Needless to say, it's going to drag you straight to hell and fast.
Revocation will release Netherheaven on September 9. The album features artwork by Paolo Girardi (Firespawn, Power Trip) and mastering by Jens Bogren (Opeth, Kreator). Pre-orders are available here and you can catch Revocation at one of the many tour dates below.
