5.0 out of 5 stars
New spectacular flavor of rock, December 7, 2003
This review is from: Places for Breathing (Audio CD)
In all honsety, this album is on my top 5 favorite albums of 2003. It's definitly on my top 25 all time. Yeah, it's that good. Places For Breathing kicks off with the radio hit 'Caught in the Rain,' and doesn't let you breathe until the end. Yes, there are acoustic tracks in the middle like 'Seven' and 'Places For Breathing' but they don't let you breathe any less. The songs, all of them, acoustic or hard, are emotional powerhouses. The lyrics always seem to match so well with the music behind them, and the melodies are a triumph. What I like most about this band is on a lot of the songs there is a progression from soft to hard. They warm you up, and then give you a workout the last half of the song. Many bands have tried this (Creed, Limp Bizkit, etc.) in the past, but it just doesn't sound perfected. Revis' sound is perfected, polished, and obviously the result of some very hard work. This CD is one example of hundreds of bands that have so much talent but because of Britney Spears and the like, will never get up to where they deserve. The cool thing is they don't care and keep making music. I cannot wait for Revis' next CD to come out. It's sure to be a powerhouse.

This is Rock at its best., June 24, 2003
This review is from: Places for Breathing (Audio CD)
Another band hitting the Rock Genre, is a band called REVIS. Unlike most bands, Revis is able to unleash an excellent first single ("Caught In The Rain"), and wrap it all up with an excellent CD to go along with it. From hearing all the good things about Revis, I went and jumped on this album. (Not Literally...but you get what I mean.) This first moment I completely listened to this album, I was very glad to hear how great this cd was put together. With 11 complete rock tracks, I felt ready to listen to more! Unlike "The Exies" (another rock band), REVIS is able to hit hard with a brillant single, and compose even more great tracks. Trust me on this one, THIS IS A MUST BUY ALBUM! You won't be disapointed. Revis is a band that will continue unleashing great tunes, and great cds. Two thumbs up! SONGS 1. Caught In The Rain - 5/5 - Excellent single, perfect way to start this cd. 2. Your Wall - 5/5 - Another great song by Revis. 3. Spin - 5/5 - One of my favs. on this cd. Great lyrics. 4. Seven - 5/5 - Nice slow/rockin song by Revis. 5. Straight Jacket Labels 5/5 - The great songs continue. 6. Living Rooms - 4/5 - Great song. 7. Re Use - 5/5 - Brillant chorus! Slow at the start, but rocks with the chorus. 8. City Beneath - 5/5 - Good song also. 9. Everything After - 4/5 - Great song. 10. Places For Breathing - 5/5 - Perfect song, and like someone else said, this one should be last. It finishes perfect. 11. Look Right Through Me - 4/5 - Good song, should be Track 10, not 11. P>Revis has unleashed a great cd, so make sure to pick it up now! Other band's cd to listen to: COLD - "Year of the Spider" COLD - "13 Ways To Bleed On Stage" Thanks, Just Got Wicked

Another from Daredevil..., May 27, 2003
This review is from: Places for Breathing (Audio CD)
Ok now I have been waiting for this since I heard Caught in the Rain on the Daredevil Soundtrack. Now some another group to check out from the soundtrack is Evanescence. Ok heres a song by song review. 1)Caught in the Rain(5/5)-Probablly the reason youre getting this, enough said. 2)Your Wall(5/5)-Pretty cool one of my favorites on the cd, he sounds the most angry here than in any other song. 3)Spin(5/5)-My second favorite its short but so's this cd. The chorus is great. 4)Seven(5/5)-The best one on the cd, starts of slow then gets louder as the song goes, the chorus is awesome. 5)Straight Jacket Labels(4/5)-The cd starts to lose its edge here, pretty good. 6)Living Rooms(4/5)-Ok, Once again the chorus...great. 7)Re Use(4/5)-OK, Fun to listen to. 8)City Beneath(4/5)-It picks up here but not by much, pretty wierd. 9)Everything After(4/5)-ok song, a little repetative. 10)Places for Breathing(5/5)-Really soft, but cool, the end is awesome. 11)Look Right Through Me(4/5)-Longest on the cd, ok ending to the cd, I think #10 should be last though. As you can see this is not the best but this band is very talented, better than Good Charolette(How'd did a not..em...the best group get so popular, wait, teenage girls who think they're hot)They have a bright future if they keep this up.
