DevilDriver’s Eleventh Album Is “Strike And Kill”
“My headspace hasn’t changed,” reported DevilDriver frontman Dez Fafara.” “I have not become complacent or soft in my view of the world or in my music. Metal is our outlet as listeners and writers, so on this record we focused on ‘getting it all out’ lyrically, and backing those lyrics with savage, relentless music that fuels the heavy California groove like no other.”
DevilDriver will release their eleventh full-length album, “Strike And Kill,” on July 10th. The lead track, “Dig Your Own Grave.” has dropped.
“(The song) is about how one wrong decision, one wrong move can see your whole world turned upside down, effectively ‘digging’ your own grave… it’s that simple,” reflected Fafara. “It can also refer to how your decisions can fuck someone else. This is why there’s the line ‘Six feet ain’t deep enough for you,’ because only a deep, deep hole is fitting for what you’ve done or tried to do to others. Be careful when you choose to make decisions at midnight.”
