Rev Theory (previously known as Revelation Theory) is an alternative metal/hard rock band from New York City that was formed by a group of college friends in 2002 hoping to pursue a career in music--and by all accounts, the decision to do so was a good one. The band would introduce themselves to the mainstream rock touring circuit following the release of its debut album Truth is Currency in 2005, however, it wouldn't be until the band's breakthrough sophomore release Light it Up in 2007 that Rev Theory would experience a significant national success and acclaim. Despite the band's commercial proclivities as one of the genre's more mainstream acts, Rev Theory has done their fair share of work to prove themselves as a bona fide act that deserves the attention of alt metal fans everywhere.
