Official press release:

Groove metal kings Devildriver recently made their triumphant return with part two of their Dealing With Demons saga, their 10th full-length, Dealing With Demons Vol. II, out May 12, 2023 via Napalm Records. Once again produced and engineered by Steve Evetts with additional engineering from guitarist Mike Spreitzer, Dealing With Demons Vol. II is inarguably heavier and relentlessly harsher than its predecessor - as proven last month with bludgeoning debut single, "Through the Depths".

Today, Devildriver have dropped another unrelenting track, entitled "If Blood is Life", plus an action-packed performance music video featuring exclusive footage from their recent US co-headline tour with labelmates Cradle of Filth. The dynamic anthem grips with an unforgettable hook and lead guitar lines, swaying with an undeniable headbang-worthy groove as it shifts between rhythmic passages.

Devildriver frontman Dez Fafara says about "If Blood is Life":

Shadows of the future, ghosts of your past walking the floor - why do these things haunt us as humans, when we should be focused on the fact that, like the chorus says, 'Time, it waits for no one, Time, it's worth the taking.' Learn to focus on the now, the here, the present.

Ronnie Radke here. Have these fruits apologized to Crown the Empire yet?

Mediocre band since long, had two decent albums, but what was always worst about them is they held back so much instead of having the balls and inspiration to go full on extreme metal

I wonder if, as Dez got his 8th piercing and third neck tatto, he thought it would be 2004 forever?
