Just listen to the drums. Jasin Serna makes ReVoLtReVoLt’s songs what they are as much as Christopher Bock’s guitar and vocals and Ben Brunn’s bass. 2010’s Chordata starts with “The Infection” and shows Serna busily filling all of these little spaces with huge fills and propulsive energy. Sure, “Black Horse” opens with Bock’s 90’s garage rock guitar chords, but just keep listening to how Serna never stops, keeping that horse running forward. I can hear all of those 90’s bands who always were on the verge but never did the Nirvana thing. It’s Mother May I, it’s St. Johnny, it’s Cell. But Serna’s drums differentiates ReVoLtReVoLt because I’m not sure any of the grunge bands ever had such impressive, percussive, and continually interesting drumming.
