REVENANT: Classic Demo Recordings Released On CD

October 28, 2005

According to Voices From The Darkside, Xtreem Records has just released "The Burning Ground", the long-awaited anthology of classic REVENANT demo recordings and unreleased material. The CD includes a booklet that contains rare photographs of REVENANT and other bands of the New York/New Jersey death metal scene of the late '80s and early '90s, an essay by REVENANT mainman Hank Veggian, as well as rare artwork, flyers, and live photographs. The CD was mixed by REVENANT's longtime producer Rick Dierdorf ('93 demo, "Overman" MCD),who emerged from retirement just for this release. It was mastered by Colin Davis of Imperial Mastering, who followed up his excellent work on the "Overman" MCD with this longer and more brutal project.

In other news, Veggian has contributed vocal tracks to the forthcoming CD from DIM MAK. He told Voices From The Darkside, "I sing on three songs — 'Incident at the Temple of Leng', 'Knives of Ice' and 'The Great Worm Of Hell' (I recite some of Crowley's poetry on that last one). It is a brutal record and unlike the previous two in terms of style and sound. The label Willowtip Records will release it. It was an honor to collaborate with them, as the band contains three former members of the legendary RIPPING CORPSE."
