\nRoadrunner Records are delighted to announce the signing of boisterous Welsh metal quartet REVOKER. Hailing from the depths of Wales\u2019 Rhymney Valley, the band will soon start work on their debut album with Skindred\u2019s Benji Webbe for an early 2011 release.
\n
\nFor a vote of confidence in the band\u2019s bright future, look no further than Monte Conner, Roadrunner\u2019s Senior VP A&R. Conner enthuses, \u201cRevoker are one of the most ass-kicking unsigned bands I have heard in a long time and I am beyond proud to welcome them to the Roadrunner family. Believe it or not, in my entire career at Roadrunner, they are the first UK band I have signed.\u201d
\n
\nAlthough Revoker officially formed in Spring 2006, frontman\/guitarist Jamie Mathias and guitarist Chris Green have been playing in bands together since they became teenagers. The band\u2019s engaging 19-year old mouthpiece Mathias comments, \u201cGetting signed to Roadrunner is amazing and almost surreal. I\u2019ve grown up listening to bands like Megadeth, Slipknot and Machine Head. So to be a part of the same label as them is nuts! I think Roadrunner is the perfect home for Revoker!\u201d
\n
\nGreen echoes his thoughts: \u201cIt\u2019s mind-blowing! If I could have picked any label then this would be it. I think this is the perfect label for us to be joining with. It\u2019s amazing to be part of such a mammoth roster with bands we\u2019ve looked up to for years ourselves.\u201d
\n
\n\u201cIf there\u2019s one label any metal band dream of signing to, it\u2019s Roadrunner!\u201d said bassist Shane Phillips . The group is rounded out by Jack Pritchard on the drums.
\n
\nWith the UK\u2019s Hammerfest and Download Festival already under their belt, not to mention praise-inducing support slots with Skindred and Soulfly, expect to see a lot more of these formidable youngsters as they take on the world!
\n
\nSays Skindred\u2019s Benji, \u201cIt was not just the music that drew me to Revoker \u2013 although they blew me away \u2013 it was their attitude of \u2018we got it and we\u2019re going to give it to you like it or not.\u2019 From watching them live for the very first time and then going on to help them sculpt their songs, I knew it would only take a push in the right direction to make them explode from their sleepy Welsh hamlet onto the worldwide metal stage \u2013 and now with the help of Roadrunner they\u2019re about to do just that.\u201d
\n
\nRevoker are managed by Blood Company\/Good Fight Entertainment (Atreyu, Bleeding Through, Chiodos, Children Of Bodom, Every Time I Die) and booked by ITB.
