Video: DEVILDRIVER Performs At Czech Republic's BRUTAL ASSAULT Festival

Fan-filmed video footage of DEVILDRIVER‘s August 10 performance at the Brutal Assault festival in Josefov, Czech Republic can be seen below.

DEVILDRIVER‘s seventh studio album, “Trust No One”, was released on May 13 via Napalm Records. The follow-up to 2013’s “Winter Kills” was once again produced by Mark Lewis (ARSIS, THE BLACK DAHLIA MURDER, WHITECHAPEL, DEVILDRIVER, DEICIDE, SIX FEET UNDER) with assistance from Jason Suecof (AUGUST BURNS RED, DEICIDE, DEATH ANGEL). The new CD marks the group’s first release since the departures of guitarist Jeff Kendrick and drummer John Boecklin and addition of axeman Neal Tiemann and former CHIMAIRA sticksman Austin D’Amond.

“Trust No One” entered The Billboard 200 chart at position No. 43 with first-week sales of just over 12,000 units — nearly all from pure album sales. The set follows the No. 32-peaking “Winter Kills”, which was released in August 2013 and opened with 11,000 copies.

DEVILDRIVER frontman Dez Fafara recently told Full Metal Jackie about the “Trust No One” album title: “I raised my children with a huge sticker on the refrigerator for a long time saying ‘Question Authority.’ And ‘Trust No One’ is basically along [those] lines. I don’t think that ‘Question Authority’ would have worked for a title. But you’ve gotta really watch people, and you’ve gotta watch ’em before you bring ’em into your circle, and after you do bring them into your circle, then you’ve gotta watch ’em even closer. And as they exit, you’ll realize that a lot of the times you bring in people, and as they exit, they are not, or were not, what they said they were the whole time they were in your life.”

He continued: “I’m a very private person and my circle is very small. I have had some monumental fallouts over the years with some people, both personal and in business. And, basically, because you come to a realization where positivity is more important than anything in your life. And if someone is bringing you negativity, bringing you down, not having a good time with you or around whatever you are doing, you know, it’s time to vacate the situation. ‘Cause I am a glass-half-full guy; I’m always pretty positive, and I’m always willing to have a really good time. So, in the last couple years, that’s been what’s going on with me. I’ve been, ‘Look, are you positive in my life? Okay, cool. Come around more. If you are not, I may lose your phone number.'”
