Return to the Revelation files


Original BOLD at CBGB's sing along photo from the final 7" lyric sheet, Photo: Tim DCXX

At this point you should already know the drill. Here's another handful of original Revelation layout elements / photos that I shot on my last visit to Rev HQ. Granted I've been looking at a lot of these photos on the actual releases for the past twenty something years, but for me, seeing these original classic shots is still pretty damn cool. - Tim DCXX


One of my personal favorite Rev releases and one of my personal favorite layouts, the original cut and paste photo collage from the Chain Of Strength - "True Till Death" 7", photo: Tim DCXX

  3. Simon... you must have looked at the entry and commented within minutes because I fixed the duplicate Chain pics immediately.

    David... I could never successfully pull off the 89 rolled up jean shorts look. Trust me, I tried, but the rolls just wouldn't stay. Worked for those guys though, more power to them!

  4. Definitely my favorite time for hardcore, gotta love the style. I don't know about the hip-packs and rolled-up jean shorts(sorry Porcell). That's when Revelation took their own sweet time releasing records. Thanks for the memories Tim.

  5. it would be cool if Jordan or you guys could find out who the photographers were for these photos..

    im SURE some of us would love to know who shot them and perhaps even buy a print of some our favorite shots..
