Revell, Rob
Torn Remnants Of Nobility
Robert Revell is a musician from Sydney, Australia currently living in Los Angeles. When he found the SPK record "Information Overload Unit" at the age of 10 he instantly connected with it. For the first time in his short life he had found music that sounded like what was inside his mind. He asked his Father (Graeme Revell) about it and learned that it was his own record. Everything made sense. Robert has played in bands over the years as a guitarist, vocalist, bassist and drummer in styles ranging from death metal, musique concrete, slam, thrash, experimental, doom, noise, jazz, blues and more. He has an extensive unreleased catalogue of about 20 albums across many genres as well as film, television and theater scores. All he's ever wanted is oblivion. He seeks a reprieve from addiction and several other mental health issues through music, art and poetry. A person of extremes he wants to either be on fire or submerged in a metaphorical sensory deprivation tank and his music reflects that. "Torn Remnants Of Nobility" mirrors our innermost thoughts and desires of violence, sex, murder, regret, pain, shame and hatred. A method of exposure and release that allows us the ability to deal with the duality of living in a society that requires the separation of these principals. It is the aural medication that keeps the relentless obsession for destruction in its place. Robert is also part of the current line-up of SPK.
