Revolution by Night

Revolution By Night Mk I - 1994 to 1999

Revolution By Night were originally a 4 piece band featuring vocalist Steve Weeks and bassist Bryon Adamson which was heavily influenced by bands such as Fields of the Nephilim and The Sisters of Mercy. They recorded the full length album 'Breathe' in 1994, which was released the following year. No further releases followed other than a handful of compilation album tracks, and the group split in 1999.

Revolution By Night Mk II - 2000 to 2005

In late 1999, having previously unrealised ambitions in this area, Steve Weeks set up a small home studio and began working on new synth-based material with Bryon Adamson and together began to develop a new sound following a full-blooded electronic approach. The first fruits of their labour surfaced at the following year’s Wave-Gotik-Treffen festival in Leipzig, where the band played a synthesiser heavy set debuting the future RBN anthem 'Faithless' written by Weeks on a Novation Supernova and a Korg Trinity rack. For some, the new sound was unexpected and very positively received, although Weeks and Adamson had been increasing the use of synthesisers in unreleased material for some time.

In June 2003, the Faithless EP was released. Featuring remixes of the title track by Ronan Harris of VNV Nation and Tom Shear of Assemblage 23, the EP contained two other new songs, 'Schadenfreude' and 'Higher Ground (voxless)' and two completely reworked older songs. With the EP reaching No. 14 in the DAC (German Alternative Chart) and No. 3 in the Belgian Side-line chart, the band again made an appearance at the Wave-Gotik-Treffen festival in Leipzig. The VNV Nation remix went on to become a dance floor hit at the Slimelight club in London, where Steve Weeks still DJs to this day.

RBN then spent most of 2004 and 2005 all but on hiatus and although new material was written during this time, all of it was subsequently scrapped.

In 2006 the band relaunched supporting Covenant on their 2006 UK tour, playing a set of almost all new songs. A steady following began to develop, mainly in the London scene, with RBN supporting many of the scene's well known names. The following year saw the band's remix of the Reaper track 'X-Junkie' released on Reaper's CD 'The Devil Is Female', which reached number one in the German DAC chart in January 2008. Writing continued during the year for what would become the 'City Lights' album. Pre-production studio work on the album was completed by late 2010 and handed over to producer Krischan Wesenberg from Rotersand, with the finished album slated for release in 2011. In November 2010, Weeks remixed Komor Kommando's track "Shrapnel".

Apart from a couple of live dates in 2011 the band did little else.

In November 2012, RBN announced that they had changed their name to stok:holm, then finally and quietly released the much delayed 'City Lights' album on 1 January 2013 under the new name. Since then, Stok:holm have played no live dates, nor produced any new music.

Steve Weeks is currently working with another London DJ, Emmerick Gortz, in the ebm ech band DKAG who have released an EP named "Short Wave" in 2015 and have played multiple live shows supporting bands such as Reaper, Suicide Commando, Phosgore, Combichrist, Apoptygma Berzerk, Velvet Acid Christ, Icon Of Coil, and Aesthetic Perfection.
