Revelation is an American doom metal band hailing from Baltimore, Maryland, formed in 1986 by guitarist and vocalist John Brenner and drummer Steve Branagan. Known for their slow, heavy riffs and melancholic melodies, their music draws comparisons to the classic doom metal sound reminiscent of Black Sabbath. Their debut album, "Salvation's Answer," released in 1991, established them as pioneers in the genre. After a hiatus in the late '90s, Revelation reformed in 2003, continuing to perform and release music, including the 2008 album "Release." Their enduring presence in the doom metal scene underscores their commitment to the genre's evolution. ([en.wikipedia.org](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Revelation_%28band%29?utm_source=openai))
