Description

2016, As the legend goes, Robert Johnson infamously started his career by meeting the Devil at the crossroads. By the same token, you could say The Apocalypse Blues Revue began playing at the end of the world. Co-founded by Godsmack drummer Shannon Larkin and guitarist Tony Rombola and featuring vocalist Ray ´Rafer John` Cerbone and bassist Brian Carpenter, the quartet honors blues traditions, while etching their stamp on the genre in blood. Shannon witnessed Tony's knack for the style firsthand while writing together for Godsmack's 2010 offering THE ORACLE. Burnt out on metal and hard rock, the pair would loosely jam without boundaries. During one impromptu session in their Southwest Florida rehearsal spot, the drummer laid down a slow, simmering groove, and another side of the guitar player reared its head. As far as blues goes, The Apocalypse Blues Revue is a little heavier, a little darker, and has some punk rock attitude in the lyrics.
