Revocation

• Revocation

  Revocation takes their music to full throttle whenever they perform live. The band takes both death metal and thrash metal and blends it together for one intense sound. Although their music is often very technical, they are able to create intriguing melodies that draw the audience into their music as well as convey a vintage metal sound to their music.

  Guitarist and lead vocalist, David Davidson, creates some of the fastest, heaviest music and is an incredibly interesting songwriter. He is able to throw his songs in totally different directions with tempo changes as well as taking a melodic song and turning it into something atonal. David Davidson acquired many interesting and complex techniques when he was studying jazz at Berklee College of Music and constantly is using these unique methods such as polyrhythm into his music. Revocation’s other guitarist, Dan Gargiulo, also adds depths to Revocation’s music. He often accompanies Davidson with shredding dual guitar solos as well as laying down some fast, rhythmic guitar strumming in a death metal style. The band’s drumming sounds like an explosion is going off with rapid double bass playing and the harsh clashing of the cymbals.

  David Davidson’s singing style is also very abrasive and stuns the audience with its sheer power. He often sings in deep growls that add a dark, haunting element to the music. Davidson is always inciting the audience to start up mosh pits and act as crazy as they can. Davidson remains so intense during the performances that whenever he speaks the name of the next song he is about to play he delivers it in a very low pitch growl. Revocation plays a great variety of songs during their shows such as some old tracks like “Unattained” as well as some interesting instrumental tracks like “ Across Forests and Fjords”.

  It is easy to pick out the influences in Revocation’s music like Slayer, Metallica, and Exodus, but their music is also highly original and distinctive. With the band coming out of the DIY Boston metal scene they have managed to maintain a strong sense of giving every performance their all, and whenever they walk on stage, you can expect them to blow you away with their exhilarating metal performance.

• Revocation was, without a doubt, the most heaviest and brutal act I saw that night, despite the absolutely lethal moshpits and circle pits of Killswitch Engage later that night. It's almost as if as soon as those breakdowns in their songs kicked in, everyone was reduced to the animalistic nature, banging their head away or bashing into someone else in the circle pits. Absolutely amazing performance on the band too and great show overall.
