PlanetMosh Keeping it Metal
DEVILDRIVER release their new album of outlaw country-gone-metal anthems, Outlaws ‘Til The End: Vol. 1, via Napalm Records this coming Friday 6th July 2018. After dropping their potent cover of outlaw classic ‘Ghost Riders in the Sky’, DEVILDRIVER are following up with yet another track cut from Outlaws ‘Til The End: Vol. 1, ‘Copperhead Road’, featuring 36 Crazyfists vocalist Brock Lindow. Listen to the song via a brand new lyric video here: https://youtu.be/SJaNrrL2oXo. Album pre-orders are available now in multiple physical and digital/streaming formats via http://smarturl.it/OutlawsTilTheEnd.
DEVILDRIVER frontman Dez Fafara says, “I have always loved this story of running moonshine and running from the cops, and having Brock on this song was a smart move as his unique voice is absolutely perfect for it. I’m proud to have him on this record!”
Track guest Brock Lindow of 36 Crazyfists adds, “I’m grateful to be included in the barnburner that is Outlaws ‘Til The End: Vol. 1! ‘Copperhead Road’ was always a heavy song with a great story that encompasses all things ‘outlaw’, but DEVILDRIVER ups the ante on this one and puts the pedal to Metal with their vision of the legendary jam. It was a tremendous honor to sing with Dez and the boys on this monster record!”

Hear the currently released singles from Outlaws ‘Til The End: Vol. 1:
– ‘Country Heroes’ featuring Hank3: https://youtu.be/lpm9QrPKfWE
– ‘Ghost Riders in the Sky’ featuring John Carter Cash (son of country music legend Johnny Cash), Ana Cristina Cash, and Lamb of God vocalist Randy Blythe:
From the opening seconds of Hank3’s ‘Country Heroes’ onward, Outlaws ‘Til The End: Vol. 1 is one of the most invigorating records the band have made to date. More importantly, these evocative, irresistible songs have all been wholly rebuilt from the ground up, powered by the classic DEVILDRIVER sound and embellished with Fafara’s unmistakable feral roar. Outlaws ‘Til The End: Vol. 1 was produced, mixed and recorded with Steve Evetts (Dillinger Escape Plan, Every Time I Die, Sepultura, The Cure), and co-produced by DevilDriver guitarist Mike Spreitzer.
