Sounds Like
"The Stone Roses storming the winter palace as U2 slaughters the Tsar, somewhere's up north"
Bugbear Promotions, The Dublin Castle, Camden, London (20/02/05)
"Epic, soaring, indie-rock with a really strong voice that most singers would kill for!" - Eddy Temple Morris (XFM)
"If you cut their lead singer in half he'd have 'Rock & Roll' written on the inside!" - Chris Charles (BBC)
"Big broad and intense stuff with stratosphere scraping guitars and fabulously vast voiced frontman – hits similar buttons maybe to The Verve or 2nd LP Stone Roses but all in a very singularly psychedelic style. Echo And The Bunnymen fans would be advised to check em too…" - Bugbear Promotions.
"The most ambitious groove-rock coated in very self-conscious contemporaneous vibes, their wall of sound smacks me straight in my face and makes me feel very small indeed. They may want to rename themselves the 'Wow' factor." - Gary's Fantastic Music Reviews.
The band has recently supported The Losers, Idlewild at Sellindge Festival, appeared at Waveform Festival 08 and made it to the final of the "Ambition Competition" to support Mark Ronson and Ladyhawke at the KoKo club.
Winners of BBC SC Unsigned, nominated for the BBC Electric Proms, 'Artist Of The Month' at Hitquarters.co.uk and Songquarters 'Artist Of the Week'. Revolution have headlined packed out venues such as The Underworld, The Garage and the London Astoria 2. The band have just finished recording with Colin Leggett (Primal Scream/The Jam/Thin Lizzy).
