5.0 out of 5 stars Promising, punishing debut from MASS youngsters, May 11, 2000

By	Klaus P Gebhard Jr (Denver, Colorado) - See all my reviews

Seen these guys open for Godsmack in the fall of '99 and they just leveled the place. Seen them again with Static-X and they repeated the same feat. The comparisons to Rage are inevitable but Reveille have more to offer than the overbearing politics that make up Zach's rants. Dont get me wrong, I love Rage, hell...they rage! but Drews vocals demand attention, they are more personal and you can associate with what he singing about. The rest of the band are equally talented and they all mesh together perfectly. Not a weak number on this CD as all songs flow. My fave is definitely Untied though its difficult to really pick out a favorite track. I have owned this since November and it still gets constant rotation in my CD player. Met them too and they are the coolest guys (Carl, the bassist is the oldest at 20). Give these guys a chance to pummel you! See them live if you can, you won't be disappointed!

4.0 out of 5 stars Great Debut, August 20, 2000

By	Amir X. Tajakin (Orange County, California) - See all my reviews

I don't see why people are mad at Reveille because they sound like Rage Against The Machine. Sure, Drew screams are a lot like Zach De La Rocha, but I mean, of course some vocals have to be a little close to each other, don't they? The rest of the music doesn't sound very close to Rage Against the Machine at all, as it is far heavier. It is very melodic, and I'd like to compare it more to One Minute Silence. I really don't know why, but I think it fits rainy days well. Laced is kind of poppy and could easily be on MTV, but thankfully I don't think we'll be seeing them on TRL anytime soon. It is harsh and political, as well as being fiercly angry. The only part that I don't really like is the fact that they're not very unique. They are too easily comparable to a lot of other bands, and bands like Incubus aren't. The whole CD is fairly listenable, and it's not something that you'll have a lot of trouble getting into. My favorite songs here are Permanent (Take A Look Around), Butterfly, The Phoenix, Splitt (Comin' Out Swingin'), and Flesh And Blood. They are a great young band and the best to come out of Boston since Staind. Some similar bands to check out are Downset, One Minute Silence, and Rage Against the Machine.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great CD, a lot of creativity, good hard rock, December 11, 1999

By	Hannah Keeshan (Bay Area, California) - See all my reviews

If you are a big Korn or Rage fan, I believe that you will really like this album. This album rocks harder than any album I have. Reveille are very talented musicians, who deserve a lot of respect for their unique style of music. In addition, Drew is also a great song writer. I saw them w/ godsmack a few months ago and they were awesome!
