Year: 2009
Genre: Hard Rock From Finland
Revengine has been rocking Scandinavia since 2007 with what they describe as their “multi-flavoured ass-kicking rock”. 2 self-recorded promotional albums later, they’ve released their first official 6 track EP – Plan Your Escape.
Describing Revengine’s sound is difficult to explain – in some songs, they reminded me of a younger Metallica, whilst at other times they just screamed stoner rock. One thing I can say for sure is that vocalist/guitarist Antti Jokiranta sounds a lot like a melodic Alexi Laiho (Children of Bodom), which isn’t necessarily a bad thing at all!
Although slightly under-produced, with some song sections being too long and the mixing levels often fluctuating, Plan Your Escape still shows that Revengine has the potential to become a serious force in the rock scene. One track that stood out for me in particular was ‘Treason’ – the main riff carries such a swagger and groove that you can’t help but turn it up louder.
Keeping in mind that this EP wasn’t released through a label, it’s actually quite remarkable that Revengine even managed to get something out. Plan Your Escape gives you a taste of what the band has to offer and personally, I think the future looks extremely promising for them. I recommend that you check them out today!
