On September 9th, Progressive Death Metal outfit REVOCATION, will release its eighth full-length, “Netherheaven”, via Metal Blade Records. The band unveiled its new single “Re-Crucified”, featuring Trevor Strnad (THE BLACK DAHLIA MURDER) and George “Corpsegrinder” Fisher (CANNIBAL CORPSE).

REVOCATION songwriter/front-man Dave Davidson comments: “Normally we tend to close our albums with a more epic style of song, but with this record, I wanted to go in the opposite direction and end with a complete ripper. Inspired by ‘Dante’s Inferno’, this song is meant to feel like a journey through hell, and due to the story-like nature of the lyrics, I enlisted the vocal talents of Trevor Strnad and George ‘Corpsegrinder’ Fisher to aid in our journey into the abyss. Tragically, I received word of Trevor’s passing immediately after we had finished filming the music videos for ‘Netherheaven’, and I was completely devastated by the news. Trevor was a close, personal friend of mine, and his passing was a terrible loss, not only for myself, but for the entire metal community. I’m proud that I could be a part of Trevor’s immense and storied legacy in some small way. His performance along with George’s are two of the highlights of the record for me. Rest in power Trevor, you will be sorely missed but your legacy will never die.“

Four years in the making, the Billboard-charting trio that is REVOCATION – Dave Davidson (vocals/guitars), Ash Pearson (drums), and Brett Bamberger (bass) – meticulously explore the allegorical and literal aspects of Hell as they dig deeper into the darker, more diabolical side of Death Metal. In short, where the previous album, “The Outer Ones” (2018), jettison REVOCATION into the horrific maw of the cosmos, “Netherheaven” bores deftly through the nine rings of Hell to directly confront Lucifer and his multitudinous faces.

“We’re definitely in more of a death metal mindset than on earlier albums in our catalog,” asserts 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.”

Netherheaven North American Tour 2022

Upon record release, REVOCATION will kick off a North American headlining tour with KRISIUN, ALLUVIAL and INOCULATION as support. “We cannot wait to play a bunch of new songs on our first headlining tour back since the pandemic,” enthuses Davidson. “We’ll be joined alongside the Brazilian berserkers in KRISIUN, Progressive Death Metal wizards ALLUVIAL and newcomers INOCULATION who combine an OSDM aesthetic with a more modern, technical approach. Don’t miss the killer lineup, come out and circle pit for Satan!”
