Relapse Records has announced the signing of the Boston-based metal band Revocation. The group is currently recording its second full-length album, "Existence Is Futile", at Damage Studios in Southbridge, Massachusetts with Pete Rutcho for a fall 2009 release.
Commented Revocation guitarist/vocalist David Davidson: "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's debut album, "Empire Of The Obscene", came out last spring.
The band has a number of regional shows lined up, including a performance at the Relapse Contamination Tour stop in Boston on May 10. The group will also take part in a mini-tour in June alongside Quo Vadis and Dark Faith.

I remember over a year ago going to my second local show and seeing Revocation at that show and being totally blown away by them. That show will always be one of my favorite shows ever. Congratulations guys! You deserve it!

I remember Anthony telling me about being in negotiations with a pretty big label at Watain back in October, awesome news to find out who it is and that the paperwork's all done with.

wow, congratulations to all the Revo guys. Seriously, I can't think of another local band that deserves this more then Revocation, especally after dropping an album like Empire Of The Obscene as their debut BY THEMSELVES.

Been a loyal supporter, friend and constant "back in boston we have Revocation" maniac for years.
I envy how this band has stayed loyal and honest with eachother while staying totally devoted and determined to succeed.
ALL THE BEST.
