DevilDriver Leave 'Em "Dead In The Water" With Intense New Single

DevilDriver, the groove/melodeath act from Coal Chamber frontman Dez Fafara, have a new album coming next month in Strike And Kill, with the first shot fired being "Dig Your Own Grave" in April. Now, the California groove machine have a new anthem in "Dead In The Water," with riffs and motifs which have many fans thinking back to classic DevilDriver, be it their self-titled debut or The Fury Of Our Maker's Hand.

As Fafara explains, this vibe was by design:

"This is one of the most positive songs I've ever written lyrically, coming from a very dark time straight into blinding light. I needed to empower others to do the same as I did, and tell them to 'stay the course,' life turns around if given the chance to flourish.

"The vibe musically on this is very old school DEVILDRIVER and the entire band is cracking hard here, if you're a long time listener you're gonna love this one! Enjoy!"
