The band is planning to enter the studio in early 2006 to record a new full length to be released in the summer.

The band claims Dag Nasty, Turning Point, In My Eyes, and Harvest among their influences and two songs can be found on their myspace page.

Such a sweet band. Meridian was a great release.

Someone (December 10, 2005)

good for them. those dudes deserve it. i'd wish they'd put the music video with the dinosaur back up on their site, though...

Jacktheskipper (December 10, 2005)

Yeah, seems like Revelation is going to get back on track ... I loved all their releases in the 90s and couldn`t get intot the most stuff they released lately ... great band!

Someone (December 10, 2005)

only reason they are where they are is because of family ties with champion

Someone (December 10, 2005)

And putting out some of the best hardcore of the year might have something todo with it too.

rkl (December 10, 2005)

yeah i think this is pretty good stuff. because of the dag nasty influence cited, i figured theyd be pussy. sometimtes is good to be wrong.

Someone (February 15, 2006)

Fuck you. Dag Nasty is the jams.

Someone (December 10, 2005)

your an idiot. Sinking Ships did this on their own. Oh yeah they're 100 x better than Champion

Someone (December 11, 2005)

Someone (December 10, 2005)

not to be confused with sinkin' ships from TO. they're good too though.

Someone (January 20, 2006)

Whoa! I thought that this was about Sinkin' Ships from Toronto. I hope people don't confuse them. The Toronto band has been around alot longer. Cheers.

Someone (December 10, 2005)

Someone (December 10, 2005)

Jesus, Revelation signing good bands again, what the hell!!, next we'll be hearing Hopless sign bands people give two shits about again.

Someone (December 10, 2005)

This is news?Revelation has signed sinking ships for years.

Someone (December 10, 2005)

Good band, good dudes. I just hope Rev treats them well.

Someone (December 11, 2005)

Revelation is releasing good hardcore again? Right on. ---Trav.

Someone (July 19, 2006)

Those guys better be careful with the name. In 1979 the Sinking Ships were going in the UK on Dead Good Records.
