Revocation enters the Billboard Charts with new album, ‘Great Is Our Sin’

#11 Top Independent Albums

#99 Digital Albums
#189 Billboard Top 200
In regards to Great Is Our Sin’s chart debuts, front-man Dave Davidson comments: “We’d like to send out a huge thank you to all of our fans that purchased our new record! We’re extremely grateful for all of your support. Thanks to you guys, we’ve achieved our highest first week sales to date!”

Reuniting with producer Zeuss (Hatebreed, Bleeding Through), who also helmed 2014’s Deathless and 2012’s Teratogenesis EP, Great Is Our Sin packs the requisite punch, yet retains the organic feel with which it was conceived. Known for their technical prowess, the band remained dedicated to upping the ante without ever losing sight of the importance of good songwriting. Whilst the lineup has changed over the ten years Revocation has been in existence, Dave Davidson’s (guitars / vocals) passion has never waned, and they are arguably sounding better than ever as they look toward the future. “We can’t wait to bring these songs out on the road and perform them for different audiences all over the world,” Davidson comments. “‘Great Is Our Sin’ is a new chapter for the band, and collectively we feel that it is our defining record to date.”
