This is the kind of news I like waking up to in the morning: Revocation’s new album Chaos of Forms will not only feature cowbells, but cowbell blastbeats. This on top of the Extreme-style horn section we’ve already been promised! Nom nom nom.

All this comes in the form of in-studio video update #2 featuring drum-tracking with one Phil Dubois-Coyne, who’s got to be one of the hardest and true-hitting drummers in metal right now. I had the (dis)pleasure of smelling his 3-week-old body funk when I joined the Metal As Art Tour for a week last year, but I also had the pleasure of watching the guy nail it every single night; dude’s a machine.

We also get to hear more of the finished version of the jizz-worthy new song we heard in episode #1. Goose bumps at that solo (srsly). Chaos of Forms finally arrives on August 16th; listen to the new song “Grave Cradle Robber” here.
