DevilDriver Returns to the Studio


DevilDriver DevilDriver have commenced recording their fourth, as-yet untitled album. The band –vocalist Dez Fafara, bassist Jon Miller, guitarists Jeff Kendrick and Mike Spreitzer and drummer John Boecklin—are holed up in Edge of the Earth studios in Los Angeles, working with producer Logan Mader (Five Finger Death Punch, Gojira, Divine Heresy). The fourth album follows DevilDriver, The Fury of Our Maker's Hand and The Last Kind Words, all of which earned the band a fiercely loyal legion of fans across the globe. It also marks the band's re-signing with Roadrunner Records, their longtime label home.

Both DevilDriver and Roadrunner are thrilled to continue their successful working relationship. Roadrunner Senior VP of A&R Monte Conner said, "I am thrilled to welcome DevilDriver back to the Roadrunner family. Dez Fafara and Roadrunner have quite a history together and we are happy to be going back into the trenches with him yet again. I'm extremely proud of DevilDriver's steady ascent over the course of their first three Roadrunner albums. They continue to evolve and grow with each new record and I know this next album will be the best thing DevilDriver have ever made." Fafara concurs, saying, "I'm proud to say that DevilDriver has resigned with Roadrunner records worldwide. My friend and A&R rep Monte Conner and the entire staff have been like family to me since 1996 and I am looking forward to many, more years of working together and putting out music."
