Chris White here from PartyInKingston.com. Joining us today is Keith Daigle, bassist of Revmatic to talk about the band's new album, Bodog Battle and much more.

[Chris] Keith, please bring us up to speed on the members of Revmatic; their names and what instruments everyone plays.

[Keith] Members are: Nathan Yetter - Guitar/Vocals, Keith Daigle - Bass Guitar/Backing Vocals, Jay Hopkins - Guitar/Backing Vocals and Rob Baker - Drums

[Chris] How long have you been together as a band? 

[Keith] As this band, we have been together since 2000.

[Chris] Is their a story on how or why you selected "Revmatic" as your band name and what genre of music would you place yourself in?

[Keith] Well, I don't have a "Cool" story about the band name, I was flipping through an office furniture catalog at work and came across a chair called "Revmatic", a few days later when we were trying to come up with a new band name I mentioned "Revmatic".  After sifting through all the names we had we stuck with this one. As for the genre I would group us in Hard Rock/Metal.

[Chris] Revmatic has recorded and produced their third studio album. Tell us briefly about your past two cds then give us the scoop on this new record.

[Keith] Well in 2002 we released are self titled disk which had fan favorites "Two Feet Away" and "Ilene" The album had a nice pop/Hard rock feel to it. Then in 2004 we came out with Ghetto Blaster. Ghetto Blaster was an awesome project and we definitely grew as a band with that album. Our song writing as a group was improving, at least in our minds. Now we are set to release our new disk called "Cold Blooded Demon". It took over a year to piece the "right" songs together, but we all came out of it like excited and happy. This album by far, again in our minds, is the best work to date that we wrote as a band. It is heavier, we have definitely drawn from our influences and again writing these songs as a band has made us stronger. I feel there is a lot of hits on this album and our fans will not be disappointed.

[Chris] When and where was the album recorded? 

[Keith] We recorded the album over a time span of 8 Months, starting back in April, 2007. We recorded it with Jef Vandertoght at his studio in Wooler, Ontario.

[Chris] What will listeners find different on Cold Blooded Demon than in your previously recorded songs?

[Keith]  It will be heavier, faster, well structured songs. The songs have a nice modern edge with a that Metal flare. Again our fans will notice a difference from our first album to this one.

[Chris] With the new band line-up and more life experience did you find the songwriting for the new cd any different than before?

[Keith] With Jay joining the band, it definitely added a refreshing perspective to the song writing.  Most of the work we had we did without Jay but the songs felt more complete once Jay came along.

[Chris] Have you performed any of the new songs live?

[Keith] Yes we have. It is hard for us to contain them, they need to be heard by the masses, LOL

[Chris] When and where can fans expect an official Cold Blooded Demon cd launch event and how can they pick-up their own copy of the cd?

[Keith]  Well, we just received the prototype yesterday from print. So we will go over everything and I would expect our first shipment of CD's in the new year. Our fans can "Officially" pick up the new disc at our CD Release Party. It will be Saturday, February 23 2008 at Smijies in Kingston, Ontario. The details of the show are not finalized yet but you can check our website for the latest (www.revmatic.com), also we will sell our CD from our site, other online sites and local retail stores.

[Chris] After the launch party, will Revmatic be able to tour in support of the new cd?

[Keith]  A tour is in the planning. We will definitely push this CD as much as possible.

[Chris] Billionaire Calvin Ayre, CEO & Founder of Bodog poker, casinos, sports, television and music has launched the chance of a lifetime. One of the wildest, interactive events of the year is Bodog Music Battle of the Bands and Revmatic is part of it.

[Keith] Yes we are. It's fun.

[Chris] Tell us what the experience has been like so far?

[Keith] The experience is good. I have seen a lot of good bands from our area. 

[Chris] When and where can Kingston area music fans check out Round Two?
