Dark Revenance

Dark Revenance are an extreme metal band hailing from Essex. The band was formed in 2007 by Judas Syx, Rich and Lazarus originally as a three piece after the demise of their previous band Serpentaria. In 2008, Matthew Garnham joined on bass and after a few months the band began recording crude writing demos at JiggaJam Studios. These were recorded by Ruptured Souls on a portable 8-track. Very few copies were given to close friends. In 2009, they made their first professional recording. Only one track was recorded, with plans to record a full album, but members all had other commitments with their other bands. (members also played in Eastern Front , The Furious Horde and Corpse Fauna ) This lead to the album being abandoned and the track self-released as a single. 2010 started with plans of the band releasing a live EP, featuring tracks recorded either in rehearsals or recordings from some of the live shows, accompanied by the single as well as some of the demo tracks. However, again due to other commitments, the project slowed to a halt. A handful of shows saw a slight line-up change, with Necromentis ( Robert Browne ) on drums, and a guest appearance of Mortiroth on second guitar, followed by an announcement on their Myspace of a new guitarist, before the band became dormant. The band has never officially split, and so is regarded as on-hold.
