RAVAGE BIO
The heavy metal band Ravage began as the idea of two young brothers
from Boston MA, USA. The two, whom fans would come to know as Al
Ravage and Eli Joe, wished to form a band that could bring bombastic
heavy metal back to prominence and crush the insipid alterna-grunge
music craze of the mid-90's. Though the barely-highschool aged rockers
had mighty ambitions when they played their first gig in 1996, they
quickly learned that Rome was not built in a day, and Ravage had to
endure endless line-up changes while honing their sound and forging
their way through the local underground metal scene. Rough demos,
bootlegs and countless shows began to pay some dividends as the band
gained a cult following. Ravage soon reached a level of international
acclaim with the self-release of their 2003 'Curse Of Heaven' EP. The
EP sold out quickly, and the band was signed to Germany's Karthago
Records to release their first full-length album in 2005. Monetary
issues, further line-up problems and internal strife plagued the
self-financed recording which was well received by some for it's
strong songs, but was often overlooked for it's weak production value.
Following the release, Al, Eli, and long-time guitarist Nick Izzo (who
had joined the band in 2001), put together a new line-up with local
bass basher Howie 'The Mosh Pig' Snow, and drum smasher GTB who had
been working with Eli on a side-project. The new line-up was invited
to play at Germany's Swordbrother's festival in 2006 where the band
put on a raucous display for thrilled fans who came from all over
Europe. Upon their return home, the band began recording their second
full-length album "The End Of Tomorrow". The next two years would see
the band in and out of the studio as they completed 17 tracks
including a cover of Warlock's "Cold Cold World" which was released on
a Warlock Tribute album by Pure Steel Records. Ravage chose 6 of the
other songs to comprise the "Freedom Fighter" EP which the band
self-released in order to find a new label. With the new recording
evidencing musical leaps and bounds in both song-writing and
production, Ravage set out to find a cover artist who would do justic
to their work. The band soon announced that they had secured the
talents of the one and only master of metal cover art Ed Repka - best
known for his work with MEGADETH and DEATH. Ravage then signed with California-based Metal Blade Records to release the new CD.
Ravage's new album seemlessly intertwines the sounds of New Wave Of
British Heavy Metal, late 80's American Thrash Metal and late 90's
European Powermetal to showcase the band's signature style. The album
is sure to be enjoyed by metal maniacs young and old as it blends the
soaring vocal and guitar melodies of Iron Maiden and Helloween with
the raw power of thrashers like Testament and Kreator, presented in a
crisply modern production-style courtesy of producer Peter Rutcho, the
mastermind behind the band VOMITRON. "The End Of Tomorrow" is
only the beginning for Ravage, who are only in their mid-20's despite
having played together for over 10 years! The new record's release is
set for mid-2009.
