Debut album, “Light The Devil’s Fire”, out on September 12th!
Spawned from the cold, grim heart of Edmonton, Canada, REVELATOR is a nihilistic assault that is raw, relentless, and unwavering in its devotion to the darkest corners of archaic extreme metal. Born in 2017, the band quickly established itself as a local beacon of furious, unrepentant energy, aligning themselves with the primal ethos of unholy power that goes back to the roots of their genre, wielded mercilessly through every riff, every beat, and every beckoning.
In 2018 and 2019 REVELATOR unleashed two self-released cassette demos, gaining a cult following among those true at heart that encountered their music, and the band expanded from a two-piece recording project to a savage live band, igniting a fire of chaos across the stage that mirrored their destructive studio presence. With a lineup forged from experience, the members have a pedigree that speaks volumes, their collective history including bands like Ouroboros, Gloria Diaboi, Weapon, Begrime Exemious, Reliquary, and beyond, with those years of experience coming together.
REVELATOR now arrives with their savage debut full-length release, unveiling Light The Devil’s Fire, pummeling the listener with ten rampaging songs. The band offers an arcane and ancient black/death assault hearkening back to the riff lords of yesteryear: Desaster, Mortuary Drape, Nifelheim, and the earliest years of black metal. Light The Devil’s Fire was recorded by Rob Lawless at Lawless Recordings, mixed by Derek Orthner at Derek Orthner Audio, mastered by Drew Copland and Vector Sound, and completed with cover art by Christine Angela, and layout by Alasdair Rintoul.
Prepare for the onslaught. REVELATOR is here. REVELATOR is watching you.
