ALBUM REVIEW: THOSE WHO DECEIVE – VOICES AND VESSELS
Voices and Vessels waste no time in the three track EP "Those Who Deceive." It's structured to be one of those records that are good enough to be melodic and lure you into a sense of sweet security, before punching you in the face and telling you to wake up.
[READ MORE]INTERVIEW: CRADLE OF FILTH - DANI FILTH
After the cancelation of the American tour, many of our heads hung low. So much anticipation to see such an amazing band, and to have it ripped from us, like slap in the face! Here at RockRevolt we screamed out "Why?!" Personally, I hung my head and shed a few tears.

During my bleakest moment of despair, little did I know that I would be speaking to Dani Filth less than two weeks later about that very same scandal.

[READ MORE]INDIE BAND OF THE WEEK: SPENCE
Spence first got on our radar a little over a year ago when we realized they were personally out and about pounding the pavement and getting people excited about their music and brand. The band members were actively seeking out people in the biz and inviting them to listen and to come to a show. Now, that doesn't make them extraordinary. No. Many bands do that. What Spence had was charisma and charm…and persistence. They were good at making sure that people that were remotely close to their venues were aware of their tour and personally invited them to come out. They reminded us over and over again where they were, and made sure that we were there to hang with them and have a drink. Dedication and persistence.

[READ MORE]INTERVIEW: CONCORDIA - ERIC EMERY
The current active rock and radio rock scene might be heavily populated at the moment, but the Cleveland, Ohio based quartet that goes by the name of Concordia, has something to offer quite a few bands don’t. Not only do they have solid rock songs played with top notch ability, they have a vocalist in Eric Emery that has that “voice” that makes them stand out from the crowd! It is easy to appreciate Emery’s strong vocal presence found on the band’s debut album, Clarity of Perception, but it is when you hear him sing the songs in their truest acoustic form that you know the singer has that “special voice.”
