Technical Death Metal band Revocation will be releasing their new full-length album, New Gods, New Masters on September 26th, 2025 via Metal Blade Records. The Boston-bred Dave Davidson mastermind credits newest members Harry Lannon (rhythm guitar and backing vocals since 2023) and bassist Alex Weber with a renewed energy and intensity both in the studio and onstage.
Titling the album New Gods, New Masters reflects Davidson’s belief about humans’ need to worship various gods.
He says:
It seems as if that desire is encoded in our DNA. As science and our understanding of nature and the universe as a whole increases, the religions of the old gods start to become obsolete. However, I believe we’ve replaced our old gods with new ones, worshipping technology and creating a cult-like idolatry of innovators. I’ve been very fascinated with the development of Artificial Intelligence, and I’m deeply concerned where this could lead humanity whether it’s the slow march towards a technological dystopia or the all-out annihilation of our species.
In advance of the record’s release, the band has unveiled first single, “Cronenberged,” featuring guest vocals by Jonny Davy of Job For A Cowboy. The track centers on a science experiment gone wrong.
Davidson notes:
I’m a massive sci-fi horror fan and love the body horror genre that David Cronenberg helped to create so this is my homage to that. Also, shout out to Rick And Morty for inspiring the song title.
Following the release of New Gods, New Masters, Revocation will kick off a month-long North American headlining tour. The journey begins on October 16th in Leesburg, Virginia and runs through November 15th in Raleigh, North Carolina. Support will be provided by Judiciary, Inferi, and Vomit Forth (on select dates).
