REVOCATION will celebrate two decades of technical death metal devastation this fall with the announcement of their 20 Years Of Torment North American headlining tour.
The month-long trek kicks off September 10 and runs through October 10, with REVOCATION digging deep into their catalog and performing material spanning the band’s entire twenty-year career. Joining them on the road are Defeated Sanity, Fuming Mouth, and Weeping.
The anniversary run follows a busy summer for the band, who will spend August touring across Europe with a mix of festival appearances, headlining shows, and club dates.
Speaking on the upcoming tour, vocalist and guitarist Dave Davidson commented:
“20 Years Of Torment… and we’re bringing some truly sick bands with us to celebrate. We’ll be playing material that spans every record on this one, reaching back into the REVO Repository plus new material from our latest album live for the first time. See you in the pit!”
Tickets for all dates are on sale now.
The tour arrives in support of REVOCATION’s latest album, New Gods, New Masters, released through Metal Blade Records in 2025. Produced by Davidson and mixed and mastered by Jens Bogren, the album continues the band’s evolution while maintaining the precision, aggression, and technical mastery that have defined REVOCATION since their formation.
The record also features guest appearances from Jonny Davy (Job For A Cowboy), Travis Ryan (Cattle Decapitation), Luc Lemay (Gorguts), and acclaimed jazz guitarist Gilad Hekselman.
