Revocation - Leviathan Awaits

[Kitsune7Kyuubi]

I discovered them yesterday at the Children of Bodom/Eluveitie concert and they are FUCKING BRUTAL!!! \m/

Plus the singer is so funny, at the beginning of a song (don't remember the name) he said : "This is a song about fucking vikings drinking beer and fighting dragons! Like Skyrim! NO, this is a song like skyrim, but fighting dragons WITH TIIIIIIIIITS!!!!!

[bassplayr1014]

@Kitsune7Kyuubi and the chick demons will have sex with you

[teenmetalhead666]

im gonna see these motherfuckers on march 4th with children of bodom. SO FUCKING PUMPED!



[Thydeepestfear]

Mother fuckers who get a glimpse of my beast tend to die as well :/

[Pandorum4000]

This is thrash. Trust me. I am an expert.

[Marksman250]

@Pandorum4000 its technical thrash and death metal.. they also play some black metal and punk(ish)

[MotoJB]

Sick song...

[MrStagepotato]

[RHCPgroupie42]

[RikkudoSennin]

@RHCPgroupie42 Probably one of the sexiest on all of existence.

[DrGand]

Hands down best outro i've ever heard in my life.

[DrGand]

3:59 is so fucking AMAZING. And when you thought it couldn't get any better, 4:16 comes along.

[pamannero]

this shit is Awesome...!!!

[MrStagepotato]

3:32 FTW

[sadiebabyx666]

@MrStagepotato FUCK YES :}

[dandylioness]

AWESOMESOMESOMESOMESOmesomesom­e.....!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[lance3098]

does anyone know what scale the solo is based on?

[cometothepartay]

@lance3098 sounds like a switch between the harmonic minor to a pentantonic major

[thedearpsychonaut]

@lance3098 something david davidson invented.

[iL4wlz]

@lance3098 Most of the time REAL musicians aren't stuck to one scale. Let go of your music lessons and just play.

[thirstyswallowme]

this rapes

[anthonybroy7]

i started listening to these guys about two years ago now..i just got back into them again recently and they have become one of my 'at the moment' faves. these guys are the meaning of technically bad-assed. rock on.

[NooodlesFromTime]

As leviathan awaits....i await for someone to tab this shit.

[SuperMETALLICAmania]

I would of never knew about this song if it wasn't for Infidel! Thanks lots.

[sharmoota120]

Lyrics so awesome it's a fucking story it's poetry riffs so awesome guitar intensifies it so brutal and heavy unique band love them

[SelixStudio]

I fucking love this band : Thrash , with a big progressif influence, mathmetal riff , and a Loud Death metal tone !

revocation for the Win !

[Geezu5]

Nice to hear a metal band with audible bass

[jlbcfh]

rising pain look em up

[skolnick14]

i looked them up and they were way better that i thought they would be. pretty good. I heard some tune called essence of decay and it was slammin

[GrandRiffAuto73]

I'm not big on this genre, but i've been digging it more and more. what do you folks call this kinda shit? Death Metal?

whatever it is, its fucking awesome and i love it.

[leetsmithownsu]

@GrandRiffAuto73 yeah, this is like thrash death metal, but really, it can just be called death metal, if youre into this, you should check out angel vivaldi, between the buried and me, and stuff like that :P

[joevandal13]

@GrandRiffAuto73 Threat metal \M/.

[UnderwhelmingPlywood]

@GrandRiffAuto73 Welcome to the club.

[GoronCityEnterprises]

@GrandRiffAuto73 Newer Thrash influenced with Death

[yimrocks]

@GoronCityEnterprises Thrash? Revocation is Technical Death Metal

[mustaineisgod96]

@yimrocks tech death with thrash influences. they're Technical Death/Thrash Metal.

[remnant24]

@yimrocks Death Metal and all variants of it are subgenres of Thrash Metal, FYI. Revocation seems to be one of those genre-obscuring bands, which is why everyone is arguing about it. Fuck genres.

[nigbot1]

SlipKnot Haterz down therrr LMAO Hope Tha "Maggots" Eat You Alive You Homoz Baahahaha

[skolnick14]

@nigbot1 slipknot sucks big hairy monkey balls...

[mrslipknotfan1000]

@skolnick14 you can suck my big hairy nuts good this is a good band by the way

[skolnick14]

@mrslipknotfan1000 It's sixty to one bro...come at me.

[mrslipknotfan1000]

@skolnick14 haha just defending my band man i love all types of music and if u dont like it all 60 of u can suck my dick

[skolnick14]

@mrslipknotfan1000 No thanks, I'm good, but maybe one of the other 59 will take you up on that offer.

[lucifer66600]

music is music, just not country

[spoon149]

You guys wana hear something fucked up? People listen to slipknot....

[BeatBay]

@spoon149 haha good one! i hate gayknot and corie gayler!

[Ryu12543]

@spoon149 Yeah lol. When I go to movies with my friends, my friend listens to Disturbed and Slipknot while we are driving... Of course I don't wanna make a huge deal out of it and ruin the night, but it's almost unbearable. Once I actually hooked up my Zune and we listened to some death metal and he said he didn't like it lmao. Terrible music taste indeed.

[spoon149]

@Ryu12543 you ever listen to death? chuck schuldiner

[Ryu12543]

@spoon149 Yeah lol, I know tons of death metal; old school and modern stuff. I've "grown up" listening to modern stuff so I like it more, but I highly respect old school death metal for making it what it is today. I have The Sound of Perseverance remastered on CD.

[1995bimetalhead]

@Ryu12543 thats old school?? o.O

[Ryu12543]

@1995bimetalhead Yes. How is the first death metal band not considered "old school"?

[1995bimetalhead]

@Ryu12543 not the first -.-' and how is there last cd still old school, lol. :P

[Ryu12543]

@1995bimetalhead Okay ONE OF THE BANDS THAT FOUNDED OF DEATH METAL. 1998 is somewhat old. Death isn't the only old school death metal band I know, that was just an example.

[MetalReigns2]

@Ryu12543 Well, if you listen to their albums human and up, that was very much ahead of its time, not as old school.

[OperationUnicron]

Fucking little poseurs. "Yeah im more metal than you worshiping satan herp derp. your music is gay. satan hates gays. imm brrruutttalll huuurrrr ddduuurrrrr A7xxx. "

Do you guys have any clue what this shits about? You're probably not even familiar with Leviathan. You will all perish in your own foolishness.

[KlarKman1000]

fuck yes.

[xxcardosoxx]

\m/ AMAZING

[HushedDeath]

Thanks infidel! \m/

[tinyb0y]

@Shockheadd45 yeah derek! shut tha fuck up! and play in your gay neverrazor bs band - kameron

[MordhouseMD]

i have to say the same

[toxicthoughts747]

This is my favourite fucking band now.

[yubbone]

the vocalist for these guys keeps them from reaching their true potential in my opinion

[bludgeonedPROD]

@yubbone i agree

[littlemoose117]

wish I've been listening to these guys sooner

[frindle8]

Sickest album cover ive seen in a while

[SonOfCath]

pretty damn sick. kinda has an old school meets new school feel.

[decomposingprophet]

I'm so pissed that Within The Ruins won the opening spot for Summer Slaughter instead of these guys.

[scheissdrek]

Some parts remind me of old Destruction. Maybe they could recruit Schmier to sing

check United by Hatred

[babeluba]

The most complete band I have ever heard! Like the perfect breed of Slayer, Primus, Iron Maiden, Napalm Death and Descendents... I can't believe that I've not heard of them before now but it soesn't matter, cus from here on out...

[HalpinD718]

Hahahaha someones talking about A7x

[ixrxthethorn]

Most epic fucking ending ever!

[ZachiePwns]

Best song on the whole album.

[gehennaspariahs]

So is this song SUPPOSED to sound like that song from FF7?... Is it the song it plays when you fight the leviathan?

[shytbrikk]

A7X shouldn't even be brought into this comment section because it's not metal, they and other bands like Disturbed, Static X, Rob Zombie, Darkest Hour, Awaiting Alexandria, etc.. just can't find a sound to make them metal, good for their fame, fame is overrated. The only metal i can appreciate from a fame level is Lamb of God, and they are kinda weak in my eyes but they still own A7X lol! I found this band listening to Goatwhore on Last FM and I think Revocation are quite talented. A7X blows!

[Gokugohansonreturns]

@shytbrikk A7X Does not blow. A7X isnt metal either so its not even in the picture. Just because you dont like something doesnt mean it sucks. I'd like to see you even play there songs.

[colasherve1]

_LEVIATHAN_Thomas Hobbes ?

[pmduke06]

Holy shit i'm going to share the stage with these guys!

[caboose878]

....this isn't jonas brothers........

[sasquatchops]

Being a fucking adult, having a job, and having money, isnt being a spoiled cunt, you bitter useless piece of shit.

[phillippi666]

this is one of the best new metal bands there is right now

[xxxskat34lifexxx]

i would really really like to see them and daath tour together, that would be a fantastic show

[APPLESAUCE50]

Um... this is really good. Why did they give Dismantle the Dictator a video? I hate that song.

[alcoholica1986]

@APPLESAUCE50 the record label wanted their first video to show off their more technical side

[APPLESAUCE50]

@alcoholica1986 Ok that makes sense but I don't mind technical. I PLAY technical but that song...

[scoar1]

0:01 face melted..

[FtLongBlackDong1]

REVOCATION FOR SUMMER SLAUGHTER. GO VOTE ON FACEBOOK.

[GeglashTheBabyStompa]

yeah i hear a lil slayer in the band, just a lil wee bit.

[theallseeingpotato]

EVERYONE WHO HAS A FACEBOOK AND WHO DOESNT GET ONE FOR THE SOLE FACT OF VOTING FOR REVOCATION TO OPEN SUMMER SLAUGHTER

[kawridr6]

@theallseeingpotato too bad they lost to within the ruins whos fucking sucks btw i just seen them live haha what a joke

[theallseeingpotato]

@kawridr6 SAME i saw within the ruins and i almost fell asleep standing up lol

[beltmaster11]

@theallseeingpotato do you when well find out

[tastetherainbow32109]

@theallseeingpotato i did but within the ruins got it >=( i go to summer slaughter to hear bands like revocation, dying fetus, fleshgod apocalypse, not fucking as blood runs black or oceano or white chapel im kinda pissed

[kawridr6]

@tastetherainbow32109 same here i used to be into to bnds like whitechapel alot now i really dont like those bands at all rearely does a deathcore band impress me its stupid how whitechapel is so high on the lineup for summer slaughter what a joke and revocation should have without a doubt won

[tkdman45]

@kawridr6 Maybe it's because whitechapel is popular?

Also, stop acting like deathcore is shit. There's the run off the mill generic bullcrap, but every genre has that. Whitechapel rules over all the shit in deathcore and does the genre right.

[kawridr6]

@tkdman45 i understand why whitechapel is on the lineup so high i realize they are popular and they used to be one of my favorite bands but now that i have seen other bands and got into different bands i realized how untalented they they have three guitar players and dave davidson is better than all three put together and i never said deathcore was shit just most if it is untalented and really repatative every single band does the same thing.Revocation is original but gets little credit.

[tkdman45]

@kawridr6 How are they untalented? You're just riding on the anti-deathcore train and following everyone elses opinion. Also, the only really original things about this band and this song in particular are the vocal style and the solo.

[kawridr6]

@tkdman45 okay they have talent it's just for the amount of popularity they should be alot better than what they are which they arent compared to bands you probably havent even heard of because you think whitechapel are gods there vocals are good but are the exact same as any other band the guitars by themselves are not impressive at all the drummer is good tho i do like deathcore i think it is an incrediably overrated genre tho

[looopy12]

@kawridr6 gonna have to agree with kawridr6, deathcore is good, and i do enjoy it, but its SOO overated. stuff like this takes so much more skill and experience with an instrument. like right now, im 17 and i can play deathcore easily, and if i try to even touch this stuff at my experience ill probly shit my pants while trying to play it

[SideWays8Productions]

@tkdman45 >anti-deathcore train

No buddy, deathcore really sucks. Sweep riffs on 7 strings, gravity beats and triggers, and diarrhea vocals.

[theallseeingpotato]

@tastetherainbow32109 WELL FUCK IT IM GOING TO SUMMER SLAUGHTER WEARING A REVOCATION SHIRT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[JGarrettC]

@theallseeingpotato

How do i do it , it's probably to late right

[imtherealdfg]

as soon as i read the lyrics to this song they became my second favorite band 1st being the black dahlia murder haha \m/

[undoubtfulldemise]

this is my favorite song on the album

[TheGreaterLionTurtle]

Damn dude this is awesome

[mrhanover]

I once had a nightmare about a giant underwater creature... It was Leviathan.

[nightwhatchman]

I am determined to learn this on guitar. This is my quest

[Justinshred01]

Revocation is fucking epic. End of..

[dawgga285]

that album cover is fucking nasty...i love it.great band to glad to hear a band from the same state as me.brings hope to my heart that metal is still alive and kicking

[Thatmusictool]

@calebandstef They have four people.

[bj373]

awesome.

[prototyrant369]

@1337nigguh that sir is to far....

[MrThrasha666]

this sounds like the singer of rumpelstiltskin grinder!

[jessieb666]

this song was so good live.

[dafuzzyguitar]

amazing riffs and styles at the beginning+ talent on all fronts+disbelief when you are told its only three people in the band+ smooth transitions and time changes+ mind melting outros with ever single style known to man = Revocations songs. these guys are really one of a kind.

[skidemon16666]

I was about 2 minutes into this video, my first Revocation video, and their discography had already finished downloading.

Yes, that good

[ixsetf]

@skidemon16666 I am hoping off of iTunes :)

[monsterhead13]

i saw them with periphery, they are so much better then any djent band ever

[xBrandonNWIx]

2:30 IS FUCKING AMAZING

[WastedYears0]

this band is really impressive but I dislike the vocals

[cooliovasquez]

@calebandstef i doubt you have heard more than 4 slipknot songs, and they never really wail on their guitars

[garrettj4]

omg these guys and avenged sevenfold are like to two best band in my demented and twisted little world

[Chaz6993X]

@garrettj4 Revocation is light years ahead of Gay7X

[MonsterMashKiller]

@Chaz6993X i'm assuming you're talking about avenged sevenfold... and i goota tell you, both bands are extremely creative. revocation is faaaaaaar more badass, but both are talented in their own way. and yeah... some avenged 7X songs are kinda gay, but the ones that aren't are pretty cool.

[912joeskee]

@Chaz6993X now-yes.. old a7x was the shit man. listen to the first album. back when they were good.

[Chaz6993X]

@912joeskee The first album was TERRIBLE. Matt's vocals were absolutely horrific.

[Gokugohansonreturns]

@Chaz6993X You shitting me? Avenged Sevenfold Is way better than them. Im not saying Revocation sucks, Im saying Avenged Sevenfold is better.

[Chaz6993X]

@Gokugohansonreturns Not a chance. Their vocalist is so much better then Matt Sanders. They only have one guitar player, who is far superior to Brian and Zack combined and their drummer is honestly so much better then the rev. he's only so hyped because he fucking died.

[Gokugohansonreturns]

@Chaz6993X There vocalist mostly screams Matt does screaming and singing. There guitar is no where near Brian. There drummer is not as good at the Rev either. Ive thought of him as a incredible drummer way before he died. So has million of there fans.

[Chaz6993X]

@Gokugohansonreturns Nah, i've seen stuff Jimmy did done by the drummer of Dragonforce, he's nothing special. he's no Joey Jordison, Jason Costa, Chris Adler or Shannon Lucas. This guy graduated from Berkley with a degree in Jazz, he actually uses that. Brian graduated from Musicians Institute with a degree in Jazz performance, but does he use it? Slightly, but not to the extent this guy does. and yeah, Matt's vocals are terrible, worst clean singer and screamer i've ever heard.

[Shockheadd45]

@Gokugohansonreturns A7X fucking fails at any metal they play, all Gates does is mostly sweep, and their drummer is so typical who cares if he died or not, someone's death doesn't justify how well they played or ORIGINAL they were. I've heard way too many songs by them, a few decent ones, but not enough to get me hooked. M. Shadows is a horrible vocalist, singing and screaming. Revocation is so badass that they don't need to sing, to get their point across, oh yeah their bassist SOLOS! >:D

[EcuadorFreak]

@Shockheadd45 Sure revocation owns Avenged Sevenfold, but you really didn't need to belittle a man's death to prove a point.

[Shockheadd45]

@EcuadorFreak I didn't say it wasn't sad that he died, hell any musician who dies unfortunately sucks. But I hate it when a member of a mainstream band dies, their fans say the member is like the best at their genre or instrument. REV was good, but nothing groundbreaking.

[illHam9]

@Chaz6993X how can you even compare these guys to avenged sevenfold? not even close to the same genre...

[Chaz6993X]

@illHam9 Eh. Just in terms of skill. I don't know what genre gay7x is in, but they aren't the best of that genre. These guys are the only technical death thrash bands. But their guitar player is better at guitar then both of gay7x's guitarists combined.

[illHam9]

@Chaz6993X Just a heads up, you sound like a 4 year old when you call them "gay7x". Really? You're still into coming up with immature names that play on words to bash another group of musicians? Since when has music been a sport in which this band has to be "better" than every other band on Earth? If there was one good band and the rest were horrible I doubt you'd be happy... I feel sorry for you for your narrow minded opinions and childish nature. That is all I have to say.

[Swanton619OfDX]

@garrettj4 Even the new Morbid Angel is light years ahead them.

[Snortemup]

@garrettj4 Your comment is almost as gay as one of the bands you listed and that is saying something.

[Polaf3456]

@garrettj4 If you think A7X is "demented and twisted" then youd find a flaming roll of shit covered toilet paper unfathomably demonic.

[antidiscombobulator]

I would buy this album on itunes if they released it instrumental only, I'm just not into the vocal style. Epic muso's! Love the outro's too, so much cool cool riffage in revocations songs. And that drummer... goddamm

[DTfan43]

@antidiscombobulator dude its really hard to find bands like this that have no vocals. Animals as Leaders may be the closest thing to that. It just one of those things where u get over it and listen to it or u dont listen to it at all. I do understand where u r coming from tho. I believe that to be one of the reasons why this genre doesnt get the respect it deserves and that is sad. Any way Revocation is badass and i want to see them live sooooooo bad

[antidiscombobulator]

@DTfan43 yeah man I understand your point... but still.. i would listen to this music maximally more if they did like a double album... the normal CD with vox and the second CD remixed with just instrumental. Such kickass muso's!!!

[nrg39]

Revocation is fuckin titties.. oh and let me add to that lil slipknot fight..

9 guyz playin random shit where one of the members actually beats on a keg??

or..3 guyz gettin all technical n' brutal and funky as fuck!

Revocation>Slipknot

but no one should really give a fuck anyway

[IwarnU1617]

what genre is this band? they sound like some Technical Death Metal, correct me if im wrong

[Thatmusictool]

@IwarnU1617 Technical Thrash - think modern slayer with other elements thrown in

[BlakkToothGrinn69]

@Thatmusictool

This sounds nothing like Slayer...

"What's that? Slayer? SLAYER?!?! You talking about, Slayer? SLAYER?!?!"

-Jim Mora

[chelseasmile696]

@calebandstef Since when was the number of band members even relevant to the music? "a 3 year old just wailing at a guitar"? So original.

[GeglashTheBabyStompa]

Slipknot is awesome if your going to insult a band insult something like justin timberlake or lady gaga, dont insult a decent band that despite everything people say play some fucking heavy riffs time to time.

[firedmeteor]

Ive been listening to this band for like 3 days straight and im still not tired. REVOCATION= ONE OF THE BEST BANDS EVER! \m/

[Fazioma00]

intro is like gojira.. good!

[devinegod1]

@calebandstef Slipknot is my favorite band, douchenozzle

[Lokiar]

@devinegod1

Well they suck.

[Ultima790]

@devinegod1 You have to admit, 9 people is a bit much for a Nu-Metal band. They've got like, a guy playing trashcan or something, and some guy pretending to play keyboard I think. It's stupid and unnessisary.

[1000asses]

@Ultima790

who slipknot?

[TheWillBoyce]

@devinegod1 Way to bitch about other people's opinions.

[adrianallen22]

@devinegod1 why? 

[monsterhead13]

@devinegod1 well then you suck

[Thatmusictool]

@devinegod1 You poor thing

[smallvile1992]

Interesting tags...

[burtontoker]

they need a music video for this song!!!!

[FrolicEpidemic]

@burtontoker nah , the music is good enough.

[DEFINEMETALisBACK]

This song = jizz

[sicks0ciety]

great band!
