It's been quite a year for DevilDriver, as they began 2012 as part of the Metal Alliance tour with Arch Enemy and recently finished up a massive U.S. trek with GWAR.
Dez Fafara of DevilDriver and Coal Chamber was the guest on Full Metal Jackie’s radio show this past weekend. Fafara spoke all about DevilDriver's current trek with Gwar and their upcoming European tour with Cannibal Corpse and the band's forthcoming record, as well as being open to performing more shows with Coal Chamber. Read the full interview with Dez Fafara below:
When Gwar comes to town, all of the earthlings know to break out their white t-shirts and get ready for some gore, as these talented alien warlords put on one hell of a show. Earlier this week New Yorkers got a serious treat as DevilDriver, Cancer Bats and Legacy of Disorder graced the stage with Gwar at Brooklyn's Music Hall of Williamsburg.
DevilDriver frontman Dez Fafara has made good on his promise to help out his sister Kerri by writing and releasing a benefit song about her that will help raise funds for her breast cancer treatment.
Intergalactic metal merchants GWAR are set to pillage the Earth once again with their announcement of a fall North American 2012 tour. Coming along for the ride will be DevilDriver, Cancer Bats and Legacy of Disorder.
DevilDriver singer Dez Fafara took to Twitter yesterday (July 12) to send his love to his sister Kerri, who has been diagnosed with breast cancer. Today in another Tweet, which can be seen below, he announced his plans to record a benefit song for her: "Not gonna sit and do nothing while my sister faces down cancer... record a song and put it on iTunes to help her kids."

After suffering a near-fatal bout with Streptococcus pneumonia, DevilDriver bassist Aaron “Bubble” Patrick has been released from the hospital. Frontman Dez Fafara tweeted the good news.
A new musical project has recently surfaced, which features tracks written by Lamb of God guitarist Mark Morton and DevilDriver vocalist Dez Fafara. The duo, along with monster drummer Kevin Talley, have adopted the name Born of the Storm and have put the songs 'Nowhere Fast' and 'Dust' online for free download.
DevilDriver’s Metal Alliance Tour launches this Thursday at the South by Southwest Music Festival in Austin, Texas, but the band’s bassist Aaron ‘Bubble’ Patrick will not be able to join them for at least the first show because he has been hospitalized.
