HAVE SOME WICKED BRUTAL METAL! Straight from Boston, it’s Revocation, and their new song Cronenberged. I’m not sure if they went to college near Boston, no, not tufts, but they do shred pretty hard.
I’ve probably heard Revocation before, but they’re pretty shreddy. Jonny Davy from Job For A Cowboy does guest vocals on it, so perhaps they don’t always sound like this? I’ll have to listen to more of the songs. It’s got a good groove to start, plus slappy bass. Much like the video, it could be great over a montage of an evil scientist doing some evil science. The frenetic guitar solo is pretty fantastic. Overall it kind of reminds me of Dethklok, just with different vocals.
The video is very Cronenbergie. Cronenbergerian? Cronen the Barbarian? Regardless, the lead singer wakes up in a lab that really looks like a place for someone to get tortured and/or killed, but instead some creep in a jumpsuit injects him with stuff and he starts growing eyeball and teeth all over. I think the lyrics even say “eyeballs where they should not be.” And a weird tentacle arm. They really lean into the gross body horror, so if you’re not a fan of that definitely switch to a different tab after you start.
