DESCRIPTION:
This music video supports the very first release of the eccentric Dutch dark synth threesome Ravage! Ravage!; the single "Blisters".

The stunning video is animated by Maxmana* (www.maxmana.com), who has previously done work for Lowlands TV, Postmen, The Routines, DJ Jean, Nobody Beats The Drum and many others, and whose work was featured at this years Venice Biennale.

(* With additional assistance from Michel Wijdemans and Thomas Jeninga.)

The song was mixed by Blokgolf and mastered in London by Nilesh Patel (who has previously mastered albums by Crystal Castles, New Young Pony Club, Midnight Juggernauts and The Kills).

The online release is backed up by a brand new song as b-side (the elegant instrumental "Pristine"), the demo version of "Blisters", remixes by new Dutch talents Geran (www.soundcloud.com/geran) and Machinegewehr (www.soundcloud.com/machinegewehr), and a gloomy take of new song "Substance" by M3t∆d3bt (formerly known as Kid Goesting) who makes Ravage! Ravage! sound as a bewitched Fever Ray.

The single was released Monday July 4, via the band's own record label Earlick.
Full quality (320K MP3, FLAC, AAC) downloads of the single (with remixes and b-sides) are available at:

Additionally, the single is available on iTunes and a handful of other download portals.
