All of that couldn’t stop them from making their best body of work to date. Formed by teenage friends Justin Holman and Robert Davis, the band became celebrities in their southern Illinois home of Carbondale before setting out to find fame and fortune in Los Angeles. The group did just that, signing with Epic Records and releasing a debut album, Places for Breathing, which peaked at #1 on Billboard’s Heatseekers chart and spawned a pair of rock/alternative radio hits in “Caught in the Rain” – featured on the soundtrack to Marvel’s Daredevil – and “Seven.” | | Except for some scattered singles amid a full-scale comeback in 2010, that was the last anyone heard of REVIS until Holman and Davis reunited with drummer David Piribauer last year to release the six-song EP Bottles of Lightning. That set the stage for REVIS’ brand-new Killing Time, their long-awaited follow-up to Places for Breathing after the aborted Do We Have to Beg?, the sophomore album which never came out after they left Epic Records. | | However, after two decades and a few reunion attempts, REVIS has announced the long-awaited sophomore album, Killing Time, produced by Robert Davis, Justin Holman, and consulted by legendary producer Michael Beinhorn, to be self released on November 7. | | Justin Holman, vocalist, shares “For Robert and I, this is about our friendship, and the love of art is equally shared.” explains Justin. “It’s the perfect recipe for creation. We are very hungry to make new music together. We have had a lot of misfortune along the way. Right now, we feel the stars are aligned.” | | In addition to the album announcement today, REVIS released a powerful, infectious new single, also named “Killing Time”, which is lyrically a reflection of the band’s journey, across all digital streaming platforms today. |
