Revere launch their new single - 'I won't blame you'; like pretty much every track off their new album, it's a banger.

The distinctive sound of London-based seven-piece REVERE is a monument to the backgrounds and musical loves of its members. Drawing on influences as diverse as Ennio Morricone, Broken Social Scene and Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds, REVERE bind together the traditional back-bone of guitar/bass/drums with an unlikely approach to the violin, cello, and piano. Elsewhere, the line-up is complimented by colliery-style brass sections lamenting over layers of fractured vocal samples and distorted keyboards.

We've heard a few tracks from their forthcoming album- only a few times- but they've already become total earworms. Prepare to be singing along and possibly shedding a tear or two; this band have goosebump-raising down to a fine art and the combination of poignant lyrics and frontman Stephen's emotive voice inspire the kind of reactions you rarely get from gigs these days.
