| Thursday, August 18, 2011 - RevelationZ Site News - RevelationZ Closing Down | It is with mixed feelings that I announce the closure of the RevelationZ website.
This has not been an easy decision to make. I have spent most of my spare time in the past 10 years developing and running the site and it has been a fantastic ride. Financial issues, motivation factors and changes in my priorities, all contribute to the fact, that I am no longer able to keep the site running, at the high level that I want.
I want to thank my staff for their contributions through the years. I believe each of us added our own ingredient into making RevelationZ something very special. I also wish all our readers the best in their future musical discoveries. |

From the time I had the honor of writing for the site, RevelationZ has been a constant thing, always there when I wanted to check out new stuff. Steen, I certainly understand that it is a lot of money to pay all by yourself. $1000 is a lot of money, especially when you have a family and a child to support.
Thank you for all your hard work over the years, it was very much appreciated. And thanks for all the fish!
Best wishes,
Tajs

It is really sad news. Beeing part of this website has been an honor and a very special feeling. I would like to thank all of my fellow writers for all the fun, the various views on Metal, great reviews and other experiences throughout the years. And of course, especially you, Steen, for all the hard work, dedication and money, you’ve put into the site.
I wish everyone all the best in the future!

Comments: 166 | | Sad to hear. This has been my primary go to site since 2003. I have been introduce many new bands and kept up to date with many other artists that I have been listening to from years past.
Steen your site cost me a lot of money in CD purchases :-)
Your site over the years became a community. I feel as though I have gotten to know quite a few of you over the years (through the music). Be it you, Alanna, Nina, Brian and so forth. It is that interaction between each reviewer and it's members is what keeps it unique.
Steen if you reach your goal how many of your current reviewers would be willing to stay on?

As I wrote above, if the hosting fee is met "the site will stay online in its current state and work as an archive. There will be no new articles, but at least our work will still be available."
All my reviewers would like to stay on, but I am closing the site. The only question is if it stays online in its current state or disappears completely.
