Revocation announce new album ‘The Outer Ones’
REVOCATION have announced a new album!
The upcoming record, titled The Outer Ones, follows 2016’s Great is Our Sin and is scheduled to be released in September this year.
Speaking about the upcoming record, vocalist/guitarist Dave Davidson says, “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. 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.”
Alongside the announcement of the new album, the band have released the first single from the upcoming record, titled Of Unworldly Origin. The track’s accompanying music video was directed by David Brodsky.
