1) Revolver (UK) were a London based guitar band in existence from 1990-1994, comprising of Mat Flint (guitar/vocals), Hamish Brown (bass) and Nick Dewey (drums). Flint and Dewey had been in school bands together, and when the two moved to London in the autumn of 1990 met Brown who completed the line-up.
The band, after attracting attention from several record labels, signed to the Virgin records subsidiary Hut Records in the summer of 1991. The band quickly picked up a following, supporting the likes of Chapterhouse, Slowdive, Teenage Fanclub and Blur, and gained a lot of press coverage, most notably in NME, Melody Maker and The Face. Their first single, "Heaven Sent An Angel" topped the UK independent charts, as did the follow-up "Crimson", and the third single "Venice". The band specialised in bright, abrasive guitar-pop songs with strong melodies, and were determined (but ultimately failed) to distinguish themselves from the other guitar bands of the era. The UK press lumped them in with the shoegazer movement, a tag that the band weren't comfortable with.
A compilation of these first 3 singles was released in the States as "Baby's Angry" on Caroline Records, and gained the band airplay on US college radio. The band toured America in the autumn of 1992, on a co-headlining tour with fellow Caroline Records act Drop Nineteens.
In 1993, Revolver released the single "Cradle Snatch", closely followed by the album "Cold Water Flat", and while the songs were more sophisticated than their earlier work, the sales weren't as impressive, and Virgin dropped the band after a final single "I Wear Your Chain" failed to make the top 75. The band split up at the beginning of 1994, after failing to sign a deal with another label. Mat Flint went on to play bass guitar for Death In Vegas from 1996 onwards, and has released two singles, "Commodity" and "Time To Kill", with his new band Deep Cut. Deep Cut's debut album "My Thoughts Light Fires" will be released on Club AC30 Records in February 2009.
2) Formed in Braunschweig, Germany - Formed by guitarist Lutz Buck and drummer Antek Rudo, and after tossing some ideas around, they decided to book a studio to record an album. The album, The Unholy Mother Of Fuck, was recorded and released in 2002 on Music For Nations.

Comprised of Charlie Atkin (guitars, keyboards, vocals), Stevie Atkin (vocals, guitars), Greg Dempster (drums), Matt Bryers (vocals, guitars), and Rob Bryers (bass, vocals), they released their debut album "Parlour Games" in December 2006. Their style is best described as rock and roll with strong retro influences, particularly The Who and Lynyrd Skynyrd.
4) Revolver (Slovenia) was a thrash metal band from Portorož, active in the 90's. They have released first and only album "Sistem" in 1997. Band Members were: Igor Zonta (Vocals), Kevin Koradin (Guitar), Matej Batelič (Bass), Enis Beganovič (Drums).

Untitled #2
Revolver Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I don't care I'm hardly settled down
Anyone can see I'm a stranger here
Don't have many reasons to have come
To this place I've never been before
I've walked alone for days
It took some time to arrive
Things get always better in the past
But today tomorrow cannot last
Anyone can see I'm a stranger here
In Revolver's song "Untitled #2," the lyrics speak about feeling like a stranger in a new environment. The singer doesn't have many connections in the town they find themselves in, but they don't seem to mind being alone. They highlight their outsider status and the fact that anyone can see it. The reason for their arrival in this place is unclear and the singer implies that they have been walking alone for days to get there.
The second verse of the song adds a layer of complexity to the lyrics. The singer acknowledges the feeling that things always seem to have been better in the past, but today's present will soon be the past as well. The transience of time and our experiences is a common theme in Revolver's music. The last line emphasizes that the singer is still an outsider in this space, even with the passage of time. The song evokes feelings of isolation and the struggle to belong, but also a sense of acceptance of these emotions.
