Bold "The Search 1985-1989" Now Available On Vinyl!

Tue, 30 Aug 2011 00:00:00 PDT

The Search: 1985-1989 fittingly illustrates the journey of Bold from the raw energy and passion of the Crippled Youth Join The Fight EP, to the milestone straight edge hardcore album Speak Out, and finally to their vastly progressed swan song, Looking Back. This complete discography allows for some insight into the development of Bold as a band and as people - the lyrics and music move together, a synchronicity that marks the growth of the band. Drawing influences from the bands that came before them like Bad Brains, Minor Threat, and Youth Of Today, Bold burst out on the scene with something to prove, and more importantly, something to say. Now available on black or colored vinyl with a gatefold cover. Includes digital download.

New By A Thread Full-Length Out Today!

Tue, 22 Mar 2011 00:00:00 PDT

We are excited to say that the new By A Thread "s/t" full-length comes out today!

By A Thread has written and recorded some of the most dynamic and influential post-hardcore/rock ever to come out of the Pacific Northwest. Drawing on their experience in the hardcore band Strain, the four members of By A Thread create multi-layered, emotional music fueled by the power and desperation of the human experience. The album's tracks are as expressive, evocative and memorable as the band's debut, but reveal a maturity in songwriting and approach that has developed in the decade since that first release.

REVELATION RECORDS ANNOUNCE THEIR 150TH RELEASE. CD OUT NOVEMBER 9th - LP OUT NOVEMBER 23rd!

Wed, 03 Nov 2010 00:00:00 PDT

Past Present is a collection of current bands covering classic tracks from the Revelation Records catalog including songs by GORILLA BISCUITS, WARZONE, YOUTH OF TODAY, CHAIN OF STRENGTH and more. These songs were recorded specially for this release; 22 of the 23 tracks have never been available before and all are currently not available elsewhere. Twenty-three songs covering more than 20 years of hardcore played by a diverse group of bands including SICK OF IT ALL, BOLD, WALTER SCHREIFELS, TERROR, DEATH BY STEREO, SET YOUR GOALS, DOWN TO NOTHING and more, all together on one record.

Collaborator/contributor Jon Sinko of BACKLASH explains the inspiration behind Past Present:

"A few years ago I wanted to start a youth crew/straight edge cover band in Portland where I live now. I put an ad in our local music mag looking for kids with influences from Bold, YOT, etc. and got a response back from some dude saying something like hardcore is dead or that era of hardcore is dead. That email bummed me out and really got me thinking. It wasn't long after that I had dinner with Jordan and pitched him on the idea for the record. At the time, Rev was pretty silent and this was a way to get well respected and active bands to pay tribute to the history that the bands and the label had created over the previous 20 years. The idea to connect back to a good cause in Human Rights Watch helped complete the circle. The days of benefit comps seemed to be disappearing as fast as the appreciation for what Rev originally stood for.

Over the years of recruiting the bands and getting this ready for release, there were so many people who were stoked to be involved in whatever way they could. From Walter, Armand, and Ray to Ken Penn and eventually Jeff Caudill who did the artwork and tons more who referred bands to us. It really was a testament to what influence the label had on so many people. Even for some of the veteran bands, having a song on a Rev release is a defining point in their music careers. This record isn't about Revelation celebrating their 150th release and 23 years of putting out music. It's a celebration and giving back from everyone who has been influenced by this label and the bands who were and are on it. It just wouldn't be as cool if Revelation didn't put it out." - Jon Sinko, BACKLASH and Revelation fan since 1989

"Jon has always been really supportive of Revelation and when he came up with this idea I thought it would be fun. There were some concerns about it being a somewhat incestuous and self-referential, but everyone involved liked the idea and in the end the songs came out great so I think everyone will appreciate the effort." - Jordan Cooper, Revelation Records

Cover art by Jeff Caudill features the entire Revelation GI Joe collection gathered through trading early releases in the '80s and '90s.

Proceeds from Past Present will benefit Human Rights Watch's advocacy work defending and protecting human rights around the world.

In conjunction with the release, adidas made custom Revelation Records branded, all canvas, Campus shoes for the bands that recorded for this album. To commemorate the release of Past Present, ten pairs of these Rev adidas will be given away. Details here:

Sick Of It All Record Store Day 7" Pressing Info.

Mon, 17 May 2010 00:00:00 PDT

Everyone's been asking, so here's the pressing info for the Sick Of It All 7" we pressed for record store day: We wanted to press about 500 copies of the record on clear vinyl, and decided to clean out the vault at the same time. We had almost 500 old inserts and old covers of various types and decided to use up all the old print. At the same time we also found the original 45 rpm plates that were used for the first pressing and thought it would be fitting to use those plates for this pressing. The labels were printed using the original artwork from one of the earlier 45 rpm pressings. We had the pressing plant send us extra covers and inserts to make sure we had enough for any overage and got the records done. Here's the breakdown of what covers and inserts were used:

7th press : 555 clear vinyl (Record Store Day 2010)

Print used:

293 old fold-over covers with band name in red and old insert

150 new glued, non-glossy covers and 1997 insert

83 old fold-over covers with band name in black and old insert

29 old glued, high-gloss covers and old insert

Why Be Something That You're Not: Detroit Hardcore 1979-1985

Tue, 16 Mar 2010 00:00:00 PDT

Coming Soon From Revelation Records Publishing...

In the early seventies, Detroit was the musical hub of America. Everything from the chart topping sounds of Motown records to the vicious proto-punk of The Stooges was being brewed out there and it seemed like there was no end in sight. But by the early eighties, the city was both a physical and cultural wasteland due to major label buyouts of the artists as well as the crippling drug habits of some of the others. Detroit's most known musical export at the time was the vapid sounds of New Wave heartthrobs The Romantics; this wasn't good. It took a gaggle of suburban skateboarders, a grade school teacher and a census bureau clerk to wake this city up from its slumber and start one of the first hardcore punk scenes in America.

"Why Be Something That You're Not" chronicles the first wave of Detroit hardcore from its origins in the late seventies to its demise in the mid-eighties. Through a combination of oral history and extensive imagery, the book proves that even though the Southern California beach towns might have created the look and style of hardcore punk, it was the Detroit scene that cultivated the music's grassroots aesthetic before most cultural hot spots even knew what the music was about.
