BASED OUT OF PHOENIX ARIZONA, VIOLENT REVOLUTION IS A CROSSOVER THRASH METAL BAND COMBINING THE BEST OF 1980’S STYLE THRASH, PUNK AND CROSSOVER METAL. ALSO WITH SOZIO/ POLITICAL LYRICS!
FORMED IN OCTOBER 2014 BY BASSIST/VOCALIST GEORGE “GEO” ROBB (AGENT STEEL, DETENTE, L.S.N., OBSCENE GESTURE), DRUMMER JOHN GILLELAND, VOCALIST LANE WAKEMAN, GUITARISTS DAVID RIOS AND DON FUNK, THEY DECIDED THAT THE THEY HAD HEARD ENOUGH OF THE “NEW METAL” NONSENSE AND NEEDED AN INFUSION OF THE OLD
SCHOOL CRUNCH THAT HAS BEEN MISSING IN TODAY’S SCENE.
TODAY’S NEW METALHEADS NEED SOMETHING NEW… IT’S TIME FOR A REVOLUTION!!! A 4-SONG DEMO “DAMAGED SOCIETY”WAS ONLY THE BEGINNING. WAKEMAN & RIOS LEAVE THE BAND, REPLACED WITH NEW GUITARIST NATE GARDUNO.
NOW IT’S TIME FOR FIRST FULL ALBUM IN AUGUST 2016. INFLUENCED BY BANDS LIKE S.O.D., EXODUS, D.R.I., SLAYER AND THE EXPLOITED, VIOLENT REVOLUTION HAS TAKEN A FRESH LOOK AT OLD SCHOOL.
