REVOKER Announces Partnership With British Association Of Mixed Martial Arts

February 15, 2011

Welsh quartet REVOKER will release its debut single, "Stay Down", on February 27 via Roadrunner Records. The song is taken from the band's forthcoming debut album, "Revenge For The Ruthless", which will arrive on May 2.

"Stay Down" has already captured the attention of the British Association of Mixed Martial Arts (BAMMA),which has adopted the song as its official theme tune for 2011. The track will make its theme debut at the highly anticipated BAMMA 5 event at Manchester's M.E.N. Arena on February 26 — and the band will be there to witness it. The video for the tune — to be shot in London on February 24 — will star one of BAMMA's top fighters.

With its fist-pumping refrain and bombastic guitars, "Stay Down" is a veritable brawler, making it a perfect choice for the partnership. "It's basically about a weekend where we live," declares Chris Green, lead guitarist. "We're the odd ones out in South Wales. We've got long hair, love heavy rock music, and don't play rugby. We're always having to fight back."

Liam Fisher, Vice President - Business Development of BAMMA, said, "I've been a huge fan of Roadrunner Records for years. They've dominated the rock and metal genre by putting out some of the finest ever bands... SLIPKNOT, MACHINE HEAD, SEPULTURA, FEAR FACTORY, the list is endless. Partnering with REVOKER makes total sense — they're fresh, British and ballsy, ready to make a very big splash on the industry... did I just describe REVOKER or did I just describe BAMMA?"

"Revenge For The Ruthless" was completed at Nott-In-Pill and Junkyard studios in Newport with producer Benji Webbe (SKINDRED).
