***Pocket Revolution*** is the fourth studio album by [dEUS](/source/Deus_(band)), released in 2005. The cover art is based on *The Von Neumann-Machine*, a story from [Don Lawrence](/source/Don_Lawrence)'s *[Storm](/source/Storm_(Don_Lawrence))* series of graphic novels.

*Pocket Revolution* was the first [dEUS](/source/Deus_(band)) studio album to be released in six years, since *The Ideal Crash* in 1999. The band featuring [Craig Ward](https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Craig_Ward_(musician)&action=edit&redlink=1) and [Danny Mommens](https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Danny_Mommens&action=edit&redlink=1) disintegrated during its recording. Ward, who was supposed to produce the record, left the band in August 2004, soon followed by Mommens. They were replaced by ex-[Evil Superstars](/source/Evil_Superstars) guitarist [Mauro Pawlowski](/source/Mauro_Pawlowski) and bass player Alan Gevaert, who completed the recording of the album. Other contributions include [Stef Kamil Carlens](/source/Stef_Kamil_Carlens) doing backing vocals on *Pocket Revolution* and *Sun Ra*, [CJ Bolland](/source/CJ_Bolland), and [Tim Vanhamel](/source/Tim_Vanhamel) of [Millionaire](/source/Millionaire_(band)) (who used to play guitar with dEUS on *The Ideal Crash tour*). The release of the album was followed by a one-year tour that led the band through [Europe](/source/Europe) and to the [United States](/source/United_States), [Canada](/source/Canada), [Israel](/source/Israel) and [Thailand](/source/Thailand). It was the longest tour dEUS ever did.

*Pocket Revolution* became the best selling dEUS record in Belgium, selling more than 50,000 copies - making it Platinum. The album sold about 200,000 copies worldwide.[3]

In December 2006, *Pocket Revolution* was re-released as *Pocket Revolution Burnt*. It contains a bonus cd with seven songs from the album remixed by [Jagz Kooner](/source/Jagz_Kooner), titled *The Jagz Kooner Excursions*.

In February 2007, a *Pocket Revolution songbook* with lyrics and chords for all twelve songs of the album was released by [Beriato Group](https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Beriato_Group&action=edit&redlink=1). It is the first songbook to be dedicated to dEUS .
