Pretty stoked on how both of those came out. No solid plans whatsoever as to what is next in terms of new material, we've kicked a few riffs around here and there but nothing real serious yet. Also talked about maybe recording a few covers, who knows if that will really come to fruition or not.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">The one thing we do know for sure is that we're heading out on a little run next month with our friend Greg Bennick! Greg and his bands have obviously been a huge inspiration for us, so we are super stoked to spend some time on the road with him and hear his spoken word sets. The dates are as follows:</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">Thursday, November 10th in Pittsburgh with Fuck It, I Quit and more TBA</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">Friday, November 11th in Philly with Toska and Pulling Punches</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">Saturday, November 12th in New Jersey with Hell Mary, Silence Equals Death, and more</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">Sunday, November 13th in Columbus, Ohio at The Summit</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">Monday, November 14th in Detroit at the Sanctuary with Bracewar, Bent Life, and Bitter Peace AD </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;"><br /></span><span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">Come hang if we'll be in your area!</span><br />

So we ended 2015 by recording our first LP in November with Andy Nelson. I think I speak for all of us when I say it was an awesome experience. Once we got done with our stuff we had a few beloved friends make contributions on a few songs and we're super pumped about how those turned out. The final mastering touches are being applied by Brad Boatright as we speak so we can finally say the record is basically done. It's going to be called "Mere Mortals", it's got 11 songs and runs at about 35 minutes. We're all really happy with how it came out and feel it's our strongest material to date.<br />
<br />
We're currently sending it around to labels to see if anybody wants to help us out with it. If not, we'll probably just say fuck it and press it ourselves. Either way, it will hopefully be available on vinyl by the summer.<br />
<br />
Right before we went in to track the LP we got hit up by a friend asking if we could contribute a song to a comp he's putting out, so we wrote an extra song in the studio and laid it down while we were there. We've never written that way before, but we overcame our collective self-doubt and wrote what we all feel is a pretty ferocious song. We'll announce the details on that release when we're allowed to, haha.<br />
<br />
In the meantime, Aaron is gonna be posting the lyrics to "Mere Mortals" one song at a time, with detailed explanations of the ideas and situations that moved him to write these songs. The initial one went up last night, it's a look at the first song on the record, "Capsized". You can check that out here: <a href="http://maybeitscomplicated.blogspot.com/2016/01/capsized.html?m=1">http://maybeitscomplicated.blogspot.com/2016/01/capsized.html?m=1</a><br />
<br />
Otherwise, we have a bunch of shows coming up: we're gonna be in Grand Rapids Thursday with Cloud Rat, in March we're playing Sanctuary twice; once with Mindset and the other time with Hollow Earth, and then we have a gig in May at the church in Royal Oak with Lentic Waters who are coming over from Europe, as well as Locktender, Old Soul, and Social Werq.<br />
<br />
Hope all is well, 2016 is gonna be a big one for us,<br />
<br />

After Sam moved to Texas, we weren't really sure what to do, but got very lucky in that our longtime friend Jimmy Lawson stepped up and has joined us on bass. We've been breaking him in and getting things situated for the LP this Fall. Last weekend we spent some time in Toledo with our friend JC at Lakebottom Recording House and knocked out demos for 5 of the new songs. JC did an awesome job, we couldn't be more stoked on how things sound. We might throw a couple of the songs on a tape, or on our bandcamp or whatever so keep your eyes and ears peeled for those. I would guess there will be some arm-wrestling matches at practice this week to decide what we should do.<br />
<br />
Otherwise, the next few months will be spent refining and finishing the record. We'll be going back to Bricktop Recording in Chicago come November to put it down. We don't have any shows lined up at the moment, if something fun comes our way maybe we'll poke our heads out of the practice space.<br />
<br />
Otherwise, as always there's a lot of rad stuff going on around Detroit. Give is playing at Refuge this Sunday, next weekend is Don't Call It A Fest, which Maxxwell and Nick have again put a ton of work into. Whenskiesaregrey is playing the Metal Frat September 13th, G.L.O.S.S. is playing the Trumbullplex September 16th, Envy is playing The Shelter on Halloween, fuck! Anyway, we'll see you out there.<br />

<br />
On our end we've just been writing, writing, writing. Skeletons for 9 or 10 songs are pretty well set. We're shooting for 11 total to record for an LP. Aaron has been working on lyrics and the stuff he has revealed so far has been simply awesome. Musically, things are a little more straight forward and heavy this time around, not as much post-rock noodling going on, though still a bit. We're trying to be mindful about varying the tempos, song lengths, etc. Lyrically, Aaron has said that whereas previous material has been more thought-oriented, the new material is more feeling-oriented.<br />
<br />
In terms of recording, the tentative discussion is to do some pre-production at some point this Summer to give things a listen, make whatever tweaks are needed, etc. and then to hopefully record in the Fall. It should be out on vinyl next year, maybe with the help of some labels, maybe us just doing it ourselves.<br />
<br />
We are poking our heads out of the practice space a couple times next month. Come say hello.<br />
<br />
Wednesday, April 1st at The Sanctuary with Cult Leader, Hollow Earth, React, and Breaking Wheel. 6:30 p.m. $10 (Note that this is an early show so everyone can bust out and lose our minds for Bane later in the evening)<br />
<br />
Friday. April 3rd at The Berkley Front with Locktender and Roots and Ruins. 9 p.m. $5<br />
<br />
Lastly, if you've yet to check it out, do yourself a favor and get to a show at The Sanctuary. Maxxwell continues to be the anchor to the d.i.y. scene in Detroit and the new space is a testament to his commitment. His website with a list of upcoming shows is here: <a href="http://www.sanctuarydetroit.tumblr.com/">www.sanctuarydetroit.tumblr.com </a><br />
<br />
Also, check out the new Eyesore demo, and brace yourself for the new Cloud Rat LP. Michigan on top.<br />

As winter approaches, it's time for us to settle in and really focus on writing new material, which will hopefully be recorded (and maybe released) next year. We might play a show here or there if the spirit moves, but mostly we'll be hunkering down in the practice space.<br />
Stay Warm,<br />

<span style="font-family: "Georgia","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 115%;">After five years of the same five bastards making noise in
this band, we have a line-up change to announce. Steve will be stepping out of
the Rev to focus the bulk of his energy on taking over the world with Hollow
Earth. Steve is a founding member of our band and has played a huge role in the
songs we have written together, so while we understand and support his decision
100%, it's definitely a little bittersweet. <o:p></o:p></span></div>

Next, our other new 7" "Natural Burial" should be out very soon. The awesome dudes at How Soon is Now, Hydrogen Man, and Protagonist are teaming up to release that for us and we're really thankful to all of them for putting their faith in us and lending a hand. We are doing a small run out to Philly and back next weekend to celebrate the release. The dates are as follows:<br />

<span class="text_exposed_show">Beyond that, Steve will be on tour a lot of this year with Hollow Earth so the rest of us will be working on new songs. After a demo, two split 7 inches, our own 7 inch, and a 10 inch, we've decided the next logical step is an LP. Never thought we'd say that but we're gonna go for it. We already have rough skeletons for about three new songs and have a bunch more riffs hanging around so we'll be in the practice space a lot this year. It would be sweet to record by the end of this year or early next year; we'll see how that pans out, haha. </span><br />

<span class="text_exposed_show">In non band-related activities, Aaron has been blogging about life, love and regret via <a href="http://maybeitscomplicated.blogspot.com/">http://maybeitscomplicated.blogspot.com/</a>. My dude is an amazing writer, go check it out.</span><br />
<span class="text_exposed_show"></span><br />
<span class="text_exposed_show">I've been doing lots of interviews with music people via <a href="http://scobonixxx.blogspot.com/">http://scobonixxx.blogspot.com/</a> and I'm also starting a little label called Dropping Bombs. The first release is a one-sided 7" from the homies in Spit Spewing Snakes. That should be out in the next week or two. </span><br />
<br />
This Fall will be five years that we've been playing shows. I know for me it feels surreal that it's been that long and I continue to love having this band as a vehicle for fun, stress relief and personal expression. To anyone that gives a shit about us; whether it's been for a week or going on 5 years now, thanks.<br />

<br />
First things first, our split 7" with Sunlight Ascending has been at the plant for a few weeks. We should have tests in hand soon, pre-orders and a full stream of the record should be up in the next little while.<br />
<br />
After that, we have another new 7" entitled "Natural Burial" coming out around April. We're super psyched to announce that the record will be released collaboratively by our friends at How Soon is Now, Hydrogen Man, and Protagonist. All three labels are run by awesome people who we couldn't be happier to be working with. Also, the layout for that bad boy is being handled by Alex CF from Light Bearer/Fall of Efrafa, and all we can say is the stuff we have seen so far has been super sick.<br />
<br />
In addition to the records coming out, we have a bunch of rad shows coming up for the first little bit of the year:<br />
Tuesday, Jan 7th at Anna's apartment in Detroit with Discourse, Hollow Earth, and Peach Pit.<br />
Saturday, January 11th at Yonka in Detroit with No More, From Hell, Not Ok, Spit Spewing Snakes, and Serve & Defy.<br />
Tuesday, January 14th again at Yonka in Detroit with Hollow Earth, Retribution, and a special guest that everyone will mosh and sing along too. It's gonna be bad fucking ass.<br />
Sunday, February 16th at Refuge in Dearborn with Dangers, Left of the Dial, and End Trails.<br />
<br />
Other than that, Steve will be recording a new full length with Hollow Earth at the start of February, you're not ready for that shit.<br />
<br />
Stay warm,<br />

We've got a couple things on the docket. First things first. We are playing the final Under Anchor show on Saturday, September 7th at Genesis in Royal Oak. If you're a Michigan hardcore kid you know how important Under Anchor and its various members have been in our scene over the last 5 years or so. Brent Fisher has pressed UA's LP "There is No End" on vinyl, so you can pick that up as well. Attending this show is a no brainer. Oh yeah, Aaron will be out of town that weekend, so it looks like our friend Dylan from Shudders will be filling in on vocals. Sick.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEizUQPTBsW4lkyWzwuLg1A4mo0XJgOMDiS0Pe6MuGAmwg0y5y9ywFwfc86GABzWrzqlQUzaXNU4jS8UgqvcmhpOEW4_yWdrvh7XjsN1jzM0r9llw22aCIJX3T9qZFdhJ5EyQ6KdGU07pf0/s1600/UA+last+show.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEizUQPTBsW4lkyWzwuLg1A4mo0XJgOMDiS0Pe6MuGAmwg0y5y9ywFwfc86GABzWrzqlQUzaXNU4jS8UgqvcmhpOEW4_yWdrvh7XjsN1jzM0r9llw22aCIJX3T9qZFdhJ5EyQ6KdGU07pf0/s400/UA+last+show.jpg" width="285" /></a></div>
Secondly, we finally nailed down dates to record our new 7" which will be released by our good friend Chris from How Soon is Now Records. We will be heading to Chicago from October 4th-6th to record at Bricktop Studios with Andy Nelson. Andy recorded our friends in Clockwork and he's also done some big stuff like Harm's Way and whatnot. The record will sound huge, we're excited for it. <br />
<br />
Otherwise, Boneshaker has a new drummer and are playing shows again, so look out for that. Hollow Earth is slowly working on new material. Alex's other project No Funeral is slogging along, they need a singer though.<br />
<br />
We have one other really cool announcement we're keeping up our sleeves for a bit, hopefully we'll be able to talk about that soon.<br />

Lots going on in the Rev camp these days. We started tracking a new song last night for a split 7" that we're planning to do as a d.i.y. release. I hate recording and I have dreams where I fight click tracks so all I can say is that Chris Trestain is a saint. More details on the split will be announced once both bands have their songs in the bag. <br />
<br />
We have two shows coming up in the next couple weeks, June 15th at The Painted Lady and June 17th at Refuge. Originally Mike Moy from Hollow Earth was going to fill in on those shows, but Steve's Shai Hulud summer party isn't starting until July now so have no fear, his golden locks will be gracing the stage with us. <br />
<br />
We're still in the process of figuring out when we'll be recording our other 3 new songs for the 7" that How Soon is Now will be releasing. We originally had plans for Chicago at the end of summer, but it appears as though the Shai Hulud fun is now going to interfere with that )-: <br />
<br />
Otherwise, I did an interview with my old friend Tom Schlatter for his blog. If you're bored you can go read my typical long-winded answers here. <a href="http://onepathforme.blogspot.com/">http://onepathforme.blogspot.com/</a><br />
<br />
In other Rev-related activities, Sam's other band Boneshaker has a new drummer so they should hopefully be gearing up to play more shows soon. Alex started a new punk rock band with a bunch of our good friends and it blazes in Propagandhi-esque fashion. Steve is in the process of recording a new 7" with Tharsis They which promises to steal your significant other and light your speakers on fire. <br />
<br />
Aaron and I are dads so we change diapers, take our kids to the park, and hope for long naps. <br />
<br />
Here's to hoping your summer is filled with such splendor. <br />
<br />
Over & Out<br />

My apologies for taking so long to update. We tend to post more on FB than here, sorry about that. But we have a couple shows coming up, a couple new songs in the works, and some hopes of doing a northeastern/western-Michigan weekend this winter! For anyone unaware, we're working on putting together 3 songs for a 7" due out this spring thru our friend Chris Zibutis and his label How Soon Is Now Records (http://www.facebook.com/HSINRecords). The songs will deal with my feelings around fatherhood and my sweet lil'-baby-cake-o'-wheat, Frances.<br />
<br />
Since i'm not savvy enough to know how to post pics of flyers on this thing, here are the links to FB pages for the Harvest and Axis shows coming up:<br />

November 3rd we are jamming with Trial and all of our best friends.....holyfuckingshit time! New songs are coming veeeeery slowly, but good things come to those who wait. In other events, it's hoodie weather and I get to watch football every weekend for the next 3 months. Happiness.<br />

We have two shows before summer closes out, then Fall is upon us and hopefully we can focus on wrapping up some of the new songs we've been working on. The first is two Mondays from now (the 20th) at Refuge with Sacred Love who will be on tour from Baltimore as well as Poison Tongues and our good pals in Not Ok. Then on Friday the 24th we get to play Launch in Ann Arbor with Xibalba, Alpha & Omega, Power Trip, and some unnamed Canucks. Safe to say your moshing shoes should be fully strapped on that night. Also, afterwards there is a show at the Metal Fraternity with Pity Sex, Bravebird, and Colony among others. We got to play with Colony last month. You are messing up if you do not see them. Anyway, flyers for both of the shows we are playing are below. Also, on a personal note I'm booking a show October 4th at the church in Royal Oak with my dudes Cynarae who are from Seattle, as well as Hollow Earth, The Oily Menace, and Dead Church. All friends, all bangers. That flyer is below as well. Finally, if you haven't picked up our record yet you can get it from us direct, or from How Soon Is Now, Melotov, Deathwish, and A389. Also you will soon be able to get it from Shop Radio Cast, Work in Shadows, or Adagio 830 if you're in Europe. Alright that's it.<br />

Just checking in. We've had the pleasure of jamming with two of South Carolina's finest within the last week, Apart and Discourse; check them out if you haven't yet. Big thanks to Sir Law for helping us at both of these shows. We played last night for the first time ever at The Halfway House, and it was a really fun show. It's been a super long time since we've jammed a house show, it felt great. We play there again with Divider July 11....do not miss this opportunity to have your eardrums destroyed, they are absolutely awesome. In other events, we got cd's in the mail the other day, so all you non-record player havin' folks, we got you covered. It also has an Unbroken cover which is not available anywhere else, so that's a little added bonus. They're in our webstore for $5. Do it! Otherwise, we've had the blue vinyl for a few weeks now, we've been working on lining up distribution for it.....so far you can get the record from Deathwish, Panic, Melotov, A389 and How Soon is Now. All of those labels put out awesome stuff and are run by solid people, so we would highly recommend supporting all of them. For the rest of the summer we have a couple more shows lined up at present, and we're very slooooooowly starting to piece together some new songs. Super tentative plans to record at some point this Fall perhaps, we'll see how things materialize. K that's all for now.<br />
Hearts,<br />

P.S. Here's what that CD looks like!<br />

We're really excited for both. June 5 there should be a few Lost Time Records comps available which feature our song "Open Wounds" as well as tracks from a bunch of rad bands from all over the Midwest. July 11th we get to play with Divider which I'm personally really stoked on. I have been old friends with their singer Chris for a looooong time but I've never actually met him in person, we used to trade releases when we each ran record labels back in the day, so it'll rule to finally meet him. Also, our CD has an official release date of May 25. We are hoping (fingers crossed) to have them in time for the June 5th show. Also hoping to have 10 inches on blue that night. Summer's coming, good things in the mix.<br />

It looks and sounds awesome. Thank you to everyone who came to the release show last weekend or has bought a copy through the online store. Without getting into the ugly details, American Enemy Records imploded quite suddenly and we've been stuck with the costs of pressing the record. So we're looking to play as many shows as we can fit into our schedules as well as looking ahead and writing new songs. We get to play with Defeater next week and we have an awesome show with Divider (ex-Skycamefalling) and a bunch of others in July. Oh yeah, a CD version of the record should be available in a month or so through Indelirium Records from Italy. More info on that when we get it.<br />

Couldn't be more excited. The 10 inch will be out on black, grey, and dark blue vinyl. The CD is now being released by Indelirium Records from Italy. To spice it up, the CD version will feature our two split 7" songs as well as a cover we are recording in a couple of weeks. It will be out sometime early summer. Finally, we just got word that we are playing Wednesday, May 2nd with Defeater and Code Orange Kids. Jay from Defeater recorded the new e.p., so it will be amazing to play with them pretty much right after the record drops. Otherwise, working on new songs.<br />All is Well,<br />Scobie/Rev<br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi-eGiy5hfrLWOzs3DUMscqu-n0CzhaLPnBGkqqceQ7V5dc4x6zBIiUbGGKdWiGpnbTeRRDoyGt-hqM3e8NduS4pQrro8JnZThB6mXXHQhzyIl5iH9WtUb4RxpEshBjZioWyTPV8LThE8Y/s1600/Defeater+5-2.jpg"><img style="cursor: pointer; width: 150px; height: 231px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi-eGiy5hfrLWOzs3DUMscqu-n0CzhaLPnBGkqqceQ7V5dc4x6zBIiUbGGKdWiGpnbTeRRDoyGt-hqM3e8NduS4pQrro8JnZThB6mXXHQhzyIl5iH9WtUb4RxpEshBjZioWyTPV8LThE8Y/s200/Defeater+5-2.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5724759511041720706" border="0" /></a>Great Reversalshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09384025040397241837noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1913803187207020953.post-71513572476839174662012-02-28T09:59:00.009-05:002012-02-28T10:16:07.574-05:00Spring is Coming<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEihcNA2qIQHYsAQ2czdYqCDGK0AJrszqGCL8XBDYYT0m0pzWIO8tTRsIhQuAqC8-JYRLiKborQo9vt_z0XhHGUL0k62jrjyxw-cxxE-02EmE6GiyGHGzNS9MGLCCOnFtIonqzI6inHR80k/s1600/Lost+Time+Show.jpg"><img style="MARGIN: 0px 0px 10px 10px; WIDTH: 154px; FLOAT: right; HEIGHT: 205px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5714204634773046706" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEihcNA2qIQHYsAQ2czdYqCDGK0AJrszqGCL8XBDYYT0m0pzWIO8tTRsIhQuAqC8-JYRLiKborQo9vt_z0XhHGUL0k62jrjyxw-cxxE-02EmE6GiyGHGzNS9MGLCCOnFtIonqzI6inHR80k/s200/Lost+Time+Show.jpg" /></a><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi1XoKfOdBRxPSDKJey6Uq1FL74vi7ZUi9N7W7myZbYUti5JOLu-__9weOWwSMR_escjxarZWcqaNuMFR-dj-RwSECHoRL1l2Llh9rXrhMOBvs9zozU7DiQBTcL8-qD49tpAkuwfloQRkg/s1600/harms+way+show.jpg"><img style="MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; WIDTH: 130px; FLOAT: left; HEIGHT: 200px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5714204540640704418" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi1XoKfOdBRxPSDKJey6Uq1FL74vi7ZUi9N7W7myZbYUti5JOLu-__9weOWwSMR_escjxarZWcqaNuMFR-dj-RwSECHoRL1l2Llh9rXrhMOBvs9zozU7DiQBTcL8-qD49tpAkuwfloQRkg/s200/harms+way+show.jpg" /></a> Sup, it's been a bit. A few items to mention. First of all, pre-orders for "To the Ends of the Earth" should for real be coming within the next few weeks. Record out 4.24.12. Secondly, a couple of shows. March 22nd in Ann Arbor at Launch with Harm's Way, Dead End Path, Bloodhound, and our pals in Not Ok. May 19th at Genesis with Shudders (who we are so stoked to finally play with) as well as No Side from Flint, and Freedom, which features an all-star cast with none other than Sir Law, The Kutch The Calling, and Big Daddy Folk. In other events, we have a new jam well on its way and a cover song we'll be unveiling at the Launch show. Also, Steve has commenced world takeover with Holla Earth. They are heading South for a couple weeks but will be playing a tour kick-off show with Discourse on March 7th. Go headbang. Finally, we will be announcing details for our co-record release show with the Hollow Earth boys very soon. We're super stoked about that.<br />Over & Out,<br /><br /><div><br /><div><br /><div><br /><div><br /><div>Rev</div></div><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><div><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><div><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /></div><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><div></div><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><div><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /></div><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><div></div></div></div></div></div>Great Reversalshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09384025040397241837noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1913803187207020953.post-24549959750479465132012-01-01T15:13:00.002-05:002012-01-01T15:22:33.464-05:00R.I.P. Positive NoiseIf there is one band that has done more for us than anybody else it has got to be Positive Noise. We shared our first two shows with them, and they have become great friends ever since. From Ryan booking us countless times in G.R. to Kevin recording us for the Waves split, to Sock and Casey being among the warmest, most welcoming people we have ever met, they have been so awesome to us. Positive Noise embodies everything pure, honest, and amazing about diy hardcore punk. Sadly, none of us were able to make this show, but this video captures some of the passion and raw energy that these guys embodied. I know each of them will continue to contribute in various ways whether it is playing in other bands, running restaurants, recording bands, booking shows, etc., but we owe them a lot, and wanted to acknowledge what they have meant to us. Thank you so much to Ryan, Kevin, Casey, and Sock. <br />Scobie/Rev<br /><a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BcKAeohuhHg">http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BcKAeohuhHg</a>Great Reversalshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09384025040397241837noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1913803187207020953.post-16945452831786641272011-12-16T07:44:00.003-05:002011-12-16T07:55:39.893-05:00To the Ends of the EarthWe are beyond psyched to announce that our new e.p. "To the Ends of the Earth" has an official release date of February 14th, 2012. The record will be out on CD and 10" vinyl, as well as in the digital format. I think I speak for all of us when I say we really poured ourselves into these songs, and we're incredibly excited about how the release turned out. On a personal level, I started coming up with song titles and portions of the lyrics before this band even formed. So it's been a long time coming and it feels amazing to see this project coming to fruition. Big thanks to Jamie at American Enemy for believing in us and helping make this thing a reality. Check his label out, he is doing some really rad things (including recently signing Wells, which features our beloved friend and sixth member Jimmy Lawson)! I'm sure pre-orders will be up and running in the next month or so, and we'll be putting together details for a record release show some time around the release date.<br /><br /><div>So Stoked!</div><br /><div>Scobie/Rev </div><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhlM9Q-zDCwJV3W0Zi2rm3hAs0xLCMQ014UpxqYeiw8z1Z3tRjzrNwQYG9WRlk8s5fk0fnehQPG8ibvPGi6SdutlcYgLtCH3jI0C56-v8PHUzbN7p5Sn7AxzQFFtaU2UcHADGqXvsSLx9o/s1600/to+the+ends+of+the+earth+cover.png"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5686708731333404818" style="WIDTH: 200px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 228px" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhlM9Q-zDCwJV3W0Zi2rm3hAs0xLCMQ014UpxqYeiw8z1Z3tRjzrNwQYG9WRlk8s5fk0fnehQPG8ibvPGi6SdutlcYgLtCH3jI0C56-v8PHUzbN7p5Sn7AxzQFFtaU2UcHADGqXvsSLx9o/s200/to+the+ends+of+the+earth+cover.png" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><div></div><br /><br /><br /><div></div><br /><br /><br /><div></div><br /><br /><br /><div></div>Great Reversalshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09384025040397241837noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1913803187207020953.post-39215923789714749332011-12-03T10:02:00.002-05:002011-12-03T10:06:25.403-05:00Deathbed FlyerSo this show is a couple of Wednesdays from now. Come hang out. Deathbed will be on tour from Atlanta and they are an awesome, young band that needs support. Plus it's at Refuge which is always a pleasure. Oh yeah, tonight we are playing the church in Royal Oak with Clockwork and a bunch of our friends. Be there.

"To the Ends of the Earth". American Enemy Records from Kansas City will be releasing the songs on CD and on 10" vinyl. We are super pumped to work with Jamie and his crew. When I sent him the songs about a month ago he literally emailed me within thirty minutes and told me the songs almost had him in tears. I was pretty much sold right there. The record should be out at some point in the Spring. We are currently putting together layout ideas with some help of an old friend of mine Kris Schofield who does some stunning photography (check out his work at <a href="http://www.istaphoto.com/">www.istaphoto.com</a>). The first song off the record "Open Wounds" is streaming at the American Enemy Facebook page. Go check that out (a link to the AER Facebook is on the right). I don't know what else we can say other than that we are stoked beyond belief.<br />Eric/Great RevGreat Reversalshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09384025040397241837noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1913803187207020953.post-70586586025118492162011-11-03T23:47:00.002-04:002011-11-03T23:51:04.595-04:00Clockwork Record ReleaseWe are psyched to be playing the Clockwork 7" release show.
