After releasing their latest album, The Outer Ones, last year to critical acclaim, REVOCATION embarked on a headlining world tour in support of it. During their European trek with labelmates Rivers Of Nihil, the band filmed a video for the album track “Vanitas” (directed by Rivers of Nihil‘s Jonathan Topore), which can be seen now here:

Lovecraft and the entities of pure cosmic horror that rule that universe he created. Since the new music we were writing was so evil and spacey in sections it seemed to be the right title to fit the overall vibe. But while the lyrical content is largely influenced by such writings, in every allegory there is of course some reflection of the real world, so I enjoy writing in a way that could have one overlaying meaning and then another deeper, symbolic meaning as well.“

IN MOTION Project – Feat. Members of SOILWORK, REVOCATION, UNEVEN STRUCTURE And More – To Release ‘Thriving Force’ On February 22nd

Working as a guitarist and songwriter in a number of bands, such as Thorium (BE), Ostrogoth, Neo Prophet, 23 Acez and others, Tom Tee also spent several years writing and recording a large number of songs of his own, in various styles and genres of Metal.

Wanting to break free from the mould of writing music in function of what would fit a certain band’s style, he set out to realize a long overdue dream – creating albums and projects that would not only unite influences from all the kinds of Metal he’d loved since his teenage years, but would also bring together a plethora of awesome vocalists from all across the scene. Due to the large number of tracks that are continuously being written, the decision was made to release not just one project, but two within the space of a year.

Dubbed ENTERING POLARIS and IN MOTION respectively, one album unites the more melodic and often Prog/Power Metal –oriented tracks, while the other taps sternly into the vein of melodic Death- and Thrash Metal. Mixed and mastered by Simone Mularoni (DGM) at Domination Studios, IN MOTION’s debut album ‘Thriving Force’ will see the light of day on February 22nd 2019 on Freya Records. ENTERING POLARIS‘ debut record ‘Godseed’ was released on the same label earlier this year.

The full cast of guest vocalists for the IN MOTION album:
David Davidson (Revocation)
Björn Strid (Soilwork)
Pierre “Shawter” Maille (Dagoba)
Jasper Daelman (ex- Anti-Icon)
Matthieu Romarin (Uneven Structure)
Jeffrey Rademakers (Spartan)
Mike Slembrouck (After All, Rik Priem’s Prime)
Benny “Zors” Willaert (23 Acez, Black Snow, Gemini Season)
Sindre Nedland (In Vain)

Ranging from Melodic Death Metal to modern Progressive Thrash Metal, IN MOTION’s ‘Thriving Force’ offers a collection of complex tracks that burst with energy, aggression and atmosphere – and featuring a stellar cast of vocalists with wildly differing styles.

Lyrically, the album explores mainly metaphysical themes in a broad sci-fi context, musing on the roles of men and gods in the possibly strange and far-flung futures of our universe. Inspired among many others by bands such as Gojira, Sylosis, Hacride, Scar Symmetry, Rush, and too many more to count, In Motion is heavy, thrashy and often groovy – but also progressive, haunting and atmospheric, and with a few unexpected detours along the way.

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, David Davidson’s (guitars / vocals) passion has never waned, and they are arguably sounding better than ever as they look toward the future.
