Opening with the appropriately titled and rebellious âPublic Service Announcementâ, âItâs about growing up, being told what to do, hearing nothing but bad news and ultimately wanting to shut everyone up and do life on your own termsâ. The accompanying lead single and video âBest Medicineâ shows the band at their live best and bears a heartfelt life lesson âYou know, finding your person when you least expect it after a particularly difficult relationship breakdown and things will come around if you relax a little, be more present in the moment and move forward.â
Across the 5 track release there are anthemic choruses, hook laden and searing riffs in âRunaway Rageâ, âA vehicle to describe the feeling that rage gives you and how it can be like a runaway train, uncontrollable until it runs out of steamâŚâ and juxtaposed by the tenderness and reflective duo of âLeast I Can Doâ and âMiss Youâ, âThese songs are written from very emotional places and places that everyone can relate to in their own individual way.â All of the tracks were self-produced by the band, recorded at Studio 91 in Berkshire with mastering handled by Dave Draper (The Wildhearts, Terrorvision, Dodgy).
Formed in 2023, the 4-piece consisting of Sam Lay (vocals, guitar) Matthew Hudson (guitar), Robin Nutley (bass) and Carl Donoghue (drums) bring a huge rock sound with a southern spin and have had favorable comparisons to rock household names from Chris Cornell and Alter Bridge through to Black Stone Cherry. Their debut EP 'What A Time To Be Alive' was released to critical acclaim in May 2024 and the band are making waves on the live circuit having wowed at shows and festivals alike including Firevolt Manchester. This is all reflected in their live album release âWhat A Time To Be Liveâ with Backseat Mafia stating âOne of the best guitar releases of the yearâ and Powerplay Magazine enthusing âOne of most refreshing and exciting sounds around.â
Revenant are bringing their message to the masses that this isnât just a bit of fun. âWhat weâre hoping the listener takes from us are songs that will evoke memories for them at significant points in their lives and playing live is where itâs at for us, we just love vibing with everyone and hanging out after.â The coming year will see the band play festivals including the third iteration of Maid of Stone, Quarantune Rocks and Steel Paws along with a plethora of shows and a special hometown headline at The Corn Exchange Newbury with tickets on sale now. In addition to the new EP release, they also offer to all those who sign up to âThe Revenant Onesâ, the band's fan club, via their website a free 7-track live acoustic EP download. Firmly flying their flag for all to see, âWe write about what we know and always want to tell a story or take you on a journey. Weâre right where we need to be and we canât wait for more, this is just the start.â
