Revoker tekent bij Roadrunner Records
15/07/2010
Roadrunner Records heeft het uit Wales afkomstige REVOKER getekend!
De band komt uit het Welshe Rhymney Valley en is samen met Skindred's Benji Webbe hard aan het werk aan hun debuutalbumn welke in het begin van 2010 zal verschijnen.
De band hoefde niet ver te zoeken voor het nodige vertrouwen, Roadrunner Records Senior VP A&R Monte Conner is ontzettend enthousiast over de band: "REVOKER are one of the most ass-kicking unsigned bands I have heard in a long time and I am beyond proud to welcome them to the Roadrunner family. Believe it or not, in my entire career at Roadrunner, they are the first U.K. band I have signed."
REVOKER bestaat officieel pas sinds de lente van 2006, maar frontman/gitarist Jamie Mathias en gitarist Chris Green hebben al jaren samen in bands gespeeld. Voor de 19 jarige frontman is een droom werkelijkheid geworden: "Getting signed to Roadrunner is amazing and almost surreal. I've grown up listening to bands like MEGADETH, SLIPKNOT and MACHINE HEAD. So to be a part of the same label as them is nuts! I think Roadrunner is the perfect home for REVOKER!"
Mathias voegt toe: "It's mind-blowing! If I could have picked any label then this would be it. I think this is the perfect label for us to be joining with. It's amazing to be part of such a mammoth roster with bands we've looked up to for years ourselves."
"If there's one label any metal band dream of signing to, it's Roadrunner!" aldus bassist Shane Phillips.
SKINDRED's Benji vertelt: "It was not just the music that drew me to REVOKER — although they blew me away — it was their attitude of 'we got it and we're going to give it to you like it or not.' From watching them live for the very first time and then going on to help them sculpt their songs, I knew it would only take a push in the right direction to make them explode from their sleepy Welsh hamlet onto the worldwide metal stage — and now with the help of Roadrunner they're about to do just that."
