THE REVISION PLAN

About Me


Two years in the making The Revision Plan has been working hard, playing tirelessly around the Chicagoland area, and sharing the stage with such bands as Counterpunch, Rule 22, and She Likes Todd. Melodic and fast paced much like their influences, Rise Against, The Swellers, and Much the Same, The Revision Plan comes to their audience with energy, talent, and most importantly- passion. Their recent release Navigations (January 23rd 2009) is a six song E.P., full of all the drive and precision promised in their live performances. The Revision Plan tastefully takes influence from many bands, two of the most apparent being Alkaline Trio and early Ryan’s Hope. Hearty drums from Marcus Nuccio, thriving bass from Dustin Karasek, and rapid guitar from Garik Niffenegger all combine to make music that demands you to move around. Niffenegger’s vocals fall somewhere between Denis Buckley (88 Fingers Louie, The Story So Far, Zero to Sixty) and beginning Billie Joe Armstrong (Green Day, Pinhead Gunpowder, The Network, Foxboro Hot Tubs) appealing to even those apprehensive of Punk. This three-piece band shows heart and promise, and Chicago can look forward to seeing more of them in the coming years.
