The band has a knack for writing hooks as catchy as the best Nickelback stuff but is smart enough to cloak them in guitars almost as heavy as Godsmack. They also have a singer (one Rich Luzzi) who occasionally steps into Phil Anselmo's Octagon of tough guy-ness. EMI saw these elements all in one spot as encouraging and signed them to a deal in 2005, releasing <I>Truth Is Currency</I> that same year. A switch to Interscope Records followed and their second album, <I>Light It Up</I>, appeared in 2008. - Mike McGuirkRock/Popen720Fri, 1 Jan 2010 01:06:45 -0800 http://static.realone.com/rotw/images/logo_rhapsody_113x22.gif http://www.rhapsody.com/goto?rcid=art.19562717&rws=%2Frev-theory%2Fmusic-videos.rss Originally known as Revelation Theory, this alternative metal band from North Andover, Mass., is now known as Rev Theory and based in NYC.
