RAVAGE, the traditional heavy metal rockers from Boston, Massachusetts, USA will self release a new full-length album entitled “Spider On The World” on April 19, 2024.
The album will initially be available on limited edition vinyl and streaming platforms worldwide through the band’s own Thrash With Power Records label.
The album is the band’s first full-length offering of brand new material since “The End Of Tomorrow” album which was released by Metal Blade Records in 2009.
The new record was mixed and mastered by Peter Rutcho who is known for his work with Revocation, Havok, Cellador and Danny Elfman amongst others.
It features the band’s signature blend of trad metal stylings which weaves together elements of melodic heavy metal, speed metal, power metal and thrash.
Cover and interior artworks for the record were created by the legendary Andreas Marschall, known for his work on classic records by Kreator, Blind Guardian, Sodom, Hammerfall and others.
Singer Al Ravage comments:
“It’s pretty cool to finally be able to share this with everyone. This record has obviously been a very long time in the making and we’ve worked hard to make the release as special as possible. We got two great artworks from the master Andreas Marschall and we have included those on a double-sided poster with the vinyl version. Musically, I think this contains our best work and it’s easily our best-sounding record. It’s throwback metal presented with a crisp, modern production which is the essence of what we’ve been trying to achieve since we started as kids playing this music back in the mid 90’s. If you like your metal classic-style with lots of ripping guitar leads, gripping riffs and in-your-face melodic hooks, check it out.”
A ten-track version of the record will be available for paid download and streaming while a special limited collector’s edition double color vinyl will feature extended tracks, two additonal vinyl-exclusive songs – “World War Four” and “Ravage Part 2: Ravage The Earth”, a digital download card, and special extras like a collectible Ravage guitar pick, exclusive bumper sticker, full-color lyric book, double-sided full-color glossy poster and a post card signed by the band.

Biography
Ravage is back with “Manmade Ice Age”, the first single from the band’s forthcoming “Spider On The World” full length album. The band’s new record will prove to be a collection of uncompromising melodic heavy metal songs at the highest level from a band that has never bowed to trends.
Ravage formed in Boston, Massachusetts, USA in the mid 90’s seeking to produce exciting, kick-ass music and offer an engaging live performance inspired by the classic metal heroes of yesteryear but with a fresh and modern edge. As many of the genre’s legacy acts begin to disappear, Ravage
continues on, offering a new voice for traditional metal. Ravage has always ignored passing trends to instead offer a sound that unquestionably falls within the bounds of heavy metal and thrash, while remaining uniquely distinguishable from any band that has preceded them.
Ravage’s latest release “Spider On The World” will follow in the same mold. The record has a crisp modern production courtesy of the band and metal productions master Pete Rutcho of Damage Studios who has mixed albums for Revocation, Danny Elfman, havok and others.
Ravage’s core line-up from the original recording remains intact with founding vocalist Al Ravage and his brother, guitarist Eli Firicano combining with long-time guitarist Nick Izzo. Al Ravage’s unique vocal stylings and the guitarist’s dual lead guitar assault are complimented by the crushing rhythm section of drummer Toni Belchior and bassist Tommy G.
Ravage has toured the United States and Europe, playing in 17 countries and 30 states. The band has appeared at international festivals including the Headbager’s Open Air, Magic Circle Festival, and Swordbrothers Festivals in Germany, Legions of Metal Fest, New Mexico Metalfest and True Metal America festivals in the United States.
