We at RockRevolt are lovers of all music…well, most music. We are lovers of all GOOD music. That being said, there are artists out there that bridge between genres, and Klayton Celldweller is most definitely one of those artists. His music has transcended time and his skill is boundless. He fuses metal and EDM music in a way that can only be described as scintillating. He can put outwardly dichotomous beats and styles together and marry them in such a way that makes you doubt your pre-existing conceptions of music. What he can do is truly an art form, and this is why we chose to review his Celldweller 10 Year Anniversary Deluxe Edition.

The band had fun. The crowd had fun. I think it’s safe to say that whilst she may not have gotten the fame and recognition she deserved, Lita and her boys proved that bullshit doesn’t matter if you can still make a venue brim with glee and joy from simply playing music with a smile on your face.

After a visa debacle which resulted in being denied entry to the U.S. and China, Cradle of Filth added their first Australian tour dates in 4 years and HELL was it worth the wait!

In the latest issue of RockRevolt Magazine, we included our first movie review for Detention of the Dead. With the movie coming out shortly (on demand on June 18th, and in select theaters on June 28th), we had to dig further and deeper. Per a post on the Detention of the Dead’s Facebook page, “Open PUS OOZING SORES and a LUST for fresh meat? YES!!!” With promises such as these, how could we NOT follow up with the film’s director, Alex Craig Mann? The film delivered sufficient gore filled morsels of horror to induce horror fanatic wet dreams; however, we wanted to know MORE about what was going on behind the camera and get to know who could deliver such succulent teenage zombie pleasure.
And a pleasure it was to speak to the affable Alex Craig Mann!

Every musician has storiesfrom the road that stick out in their minds. Joey Huffman recalls such a day of infamy with RockRevolt Editor Val King at BamaJam. Shameful!

The final tour date of Killswitch Engage was bound to be messy: a royal bloodbath. It looked like it was going to be crazy from the moment Disarm the Descent hit the shelves, with rock fans flocking to hear what Jesse sounded like being back with Killswitch. What you hear on the album is nothing compared to what they sound like live.

Tom Keifer started out his solo tour almost two months before his debut solo album released on April 30, 2013. Read the review of the show that started it all for an artist & tour still going strong!

Album Review: Devour the Day’s debut album, Time & Pressure By Cassie Carlson  Everyone at RockRevolt™Magazine is  pumped up for the release of Devour the Day’s debut album, Time & Pressure, premiering today through Fat Lady Music.  Branching out from Egypt Central, Blake Allison and Joey ‘Chicago’ Walser have managed to bridge the gap between the [...]

Anyone familiar with the play of Macbeth knows that the witches brewed poisoned entrails, toad venom, fillet of a fenny snake, eye of a newt and any other thing they can use to create a spell. Now, it seems that they’ve tried it again, and cocked up, thus creating The Bunny The Bear. This isn’t a bad thing – as a whole concoction of scream/clean vocals and party anthems, these are provided to make one hell of an album.

The saying goes that “good things comes to those who wait” and thankfully, the wait is finally over!   We are so excited to premiere the highly anticipated video by the Nashville, TN quintet DoryDrive for the song entitled “Paramour” from their 2012 debut album, Calling On Angels. When we were told that the premiere date would [...]

The name says it all for the Finnish quartet – an album potentially full of cliché horror punk lyrics, themes, music and just another band to laugh at for having a rather ludicrous name. However, take note that I used the word “potentially.” It could have happened, there’s no doubt about that, but having been to quite a few horror punk gigs myself, this album is something not to be laughed at and dismissed easily. Containing near pop punk before divulging into massive breakdowns, this is one of the best releases I’ve heard of this year so far.

Bill Oberst Jr. is a multifaceted thespian with a unique physique and innate talent to take on roles that make our souls cringe. He starred in an interactive web-film called Take that Lollipop, for which he won a Daytime Emmy in 2012. (Click that link – it’s pretty cool). His resume of films, shorts, and projects is extensive. Visiting his IMDB page is like walking into the Library of Congress. It just keeps going and going and going. The man is an acting powerhouse.

Read what RockRevolt Magazine’s writer thought of the upcoming Black Sabbath album, 13, which was played in it’s entirety at an exclusive listening premier event in Hollywood, CA on Wednesday.

Per the notes included with my review copy of Davey Suicide’s self-titled debut album, Davey Suicide, he is “ready to set the world ablaze.” That is quite the introduction; however, does it actually accomplish this? Does it really set the world ablaze? Well, see the notes at the end of this review, and that will tell you whether or not Davey accomplished what he set out for.
If you appreciate dirty, punky, “fuck you” type of music, then yes. You will love this album. People are wondering where metal went. Well, it went somewhere after the wake of grunge, but Davey might be bringing some of it back. With a myriad of themes, this album is definitely an interesting compilation of songs, moving through various styles, displayed through the Davey Suicide lens.

Killswitch Engage are back with their original singer Jesse Leach, and this has caused a lot of controversy among fans. The first two albums released by the band cemented them as the founders of metalcore, and they gained much more popularity during the Howard Jones era, despite having a weak second self-titled album before he left. Now, Killswitch Engage have to win back fans with ‘Disarm the Descent’ – if it’s good, then the fans will stay, but if it isn’t, then the band might as well not stay together. After listening to the album, I’m going to conclude what it’s like now: ‘Disarm the Descent’ practically shits on all of the band’s discography: it’s nothing short of amazing.
