Revocation Releases “Netherheaven”

Revocation has returned with Netherheaven, an album that’s been four years in the making and digs deeper into the death metal aspects of their music. It’s also darker in content; the album focuses on the literal and figurative hell.

“We’re definitely in more of a death metal mindset than on earlier albums in our catalog,” says vocalist Dave Davidson. “We’re focusing on how we can write the best death metal-centric album that we possibly can while still pushing our boundaries. The new songs on ‘Netherheaven’ are evil and sinister but also have a progressive element to them to keep things interesting. It’s got our stamp on it, no question.”

Davidson is joined by drummer Ash Pearson and bassist Brett Bamberger, who rips through the riffs with blistering bass lines. The bassist, whose tone has been praised by Cannibal Corpse’s Alex Webster, helps set the heavy tone on his five-string Zon.
