Kurt Cobain died by his own hand April 5. The alternative nation’s voice was suddenly, shockingly stilled. After three years of the most popular music being an agonized scream over heavy guitars, people wanted something shinier and more upbeat. But they didn’t want to lose the overamplified six-strings and acknowledgment that life was complicated and messy. Dookie had that in spades.

Also, three of 1994’s best punk albums rang with re...

For Gojira diehards, Revolver has two limited-edition Spring Issue bundles featuring a numbered slipcase, alternate cover and either an exclusive Mario Duplantier art print or the band's new album, Fortitude For the Gojira cover story of our new Spring Issue, we knew we had to do something special.

Electric was released on Sire Records. It was the follow-up to 1985’s post-punk / gothic rock hit Love, which produced the hit “She Sells Sanctuary,” as well as the singles “Rain” and “Revolution.” It was the band's breakthrough record, coming on the heels of 1984’s Dreamtime, which had them firmly ensconced in the burgeoning U.K. goth scene. Founding members Billy Duffy (guitar) and Ian Astbury (vocals) both had respectable pedigrees in that scene.
