Listed in WA's "Groove Magazine" as one of the bands to keep our eyes on, Ravior hit the scene in late 2006, and hit hard with their infectious and powerful live show.
Ever since, Ravior have been injecting something fresh into the hard rock scene; An ever infectious sense of rhythm and groove, melancholy, and a hint of menace, all interlaced with tasty undertones of alternative rock's halceon days.
After a few regional tours, and sharing the stage with the likes of Birds Of Tokyo, Dead Letter Circus, Hope Here Gone, Crysis, and supporting USA hard hitters Death & Desire on the WA leg of their Impact World Tour, Ravior are set to launch their debut EP, "Sub Rosa".
Recorded in Wing Command and Couch Studios in Perth and Fremantle respectively under the watchful eye of producer and mixer Adam Spark (Birds Of Tokyo, Dyscord, Hope Here Gone, etc.), and mastered by Martin Pullan (Hope Here Gone) at Edensound in Sydney. The disc, now greatly anticipated amongst Perth's alt-rock fraternity, is set to launch come time for the summer 08/09 festival season.
Stay (drop)tuned...
The word on the street...
"RAVIOR have a huge and infectious guitar sound... Their heavy, melodic style is very Butterfly Effect inspired, but a running 90's flavour (even topped with a John Farnham cover) and that big guitar sound may just be the point of difference they need." - Josie Smith, Xpress Magazine
"Watch them fly..." - Stevie D, S.L.A.M.
"Its very rare for a band to give me goose bumps but this band did just that, check them out and see what you think…" - Naomi Christensen, 'The Vibe' Presenter: Radio Fremantle 107.9fm
"A great blend of modern rock with a hint of stone temple pilots' rawness. I like, I like. When can I hear more????" - pink geek, JJJ Unearthed
"Ravior are sweet. Had no idea they were so good at what they do. Not metal but the whole heavy rock melodic thing. The drummer kicks ass, and guitars. And vox... - Tommopeth, Perthbands.com
"Are they any good?... On a scale of 1-7 I'd say... Yes." - Kyle Green, Drunk
