Background information about 'Existence Is Futile'

Boston's technical death metal masters Revocation unleashed "Existence Is Futile" as their sophomore full-length, and what a statement it was. This album showcases the band's incredible ability to blend crushing death metal brutality with mind-bending technical prowess that'll leave your head spinning. From the opening assault of "Enter The Hall" to the devastating closer "Death In Vein", Dave Davidson and crew deliver relentless riffage that's both technically impressive and completely devastating. The production is crisp enough to catch every intricate detail while maintaining that raw edge that makes you want to throw horns in the air.

What sets this record apart is how Revocation manages to keep things interesting across eleven tracks without losing that punishing intensity. Songs like "Pestilence Reigns" and "Dismantle The Dictator" showcase their knack for writing memorable hooks within complex arrangements, while "Across Forests And Fjords" proves they can craft atmospheric moments that hit just as hard as their most brutal passages. The rhythm section of Anthony Buda and Phil Dubois-Coyne provides the perfect foundation for Davidson's guitar wizardry, creating a sound that's both technically demanding and absolutely crushing.
