Relapse Records signs REVOCATION

Relapse Records is proud to announce the signing of Boston-based metal band REVOCATION.

REVOCATION (David Davidson – guitar / vocals, Phil Dubois – Drums, Anthony Buda – bass / vocals) is currently recording their second full-length album and Relapse debut Existence Is Futile at Damage Studios in Southbridge, MA with Pete Rutcho. Existence Is Futile is expected to see a fall 2009 release date.

REVOCATION's Davidson commented on the signing and new album; “After several years of hard work and determination we're glad to announce that we have signed to Relapse. We are all really excited to be working with Relapse to release our new record “Existence is Futile”. We've once again chosen Pete Rutcho from Damage Studios to record this album and are wrapping up the vocals now. The material is really varied, ranging from very epic to an all out metal assault and we can't wait for people to hear it!”

REVOCATION released their debut album Empire Of The Obscene last spring. Audio samples can be heard now via the band's MySpace page: MySpace.com/Revocation.

REVOCATION has a number of regional shows lined up, including a performance as part of the Relapse Contamination Tour stop in Boston, MA on May 10th.
