Revocation Detail New Album & Announce Tour With Exhumed & Rivers Of Nihil

Revocation confirm “The Outer Ones” as the title to their seventh studio effort, which will be out on September 28th through Metal Blade Records.

Tells the group's frontman/guitarist Dave Davidson:

“I knew that I wanted to go in a darker direction, and this is our most death metal album to date. Sometimes when death metal bands go down the prog route, they lose some of that edge, but we wanted to keep the aggression at the forefront of what we do while still pushing our boundaries.”

Adding:

“The title is my ode to H.P. Lovecraft and the entities of pure cosmic horror that rule that universe he created. Since the new music we were writing was so evil and spacey in sections it seemed to be the right title to fit the overall vibe. But while the lyrical content is largely influenced by such writings, in every allegory there is of course some reflection of the real world, so I enjoy writing in a way that could have one overlaying meaning and then another deeper, symbolic meaning as well.”
