Devildriver dons black metal makeup for halloween; photos, video footage available
Santa Barbara, California's Devildriver is currently on the road in Europe with Behemoth, Scar Symmetry and Arsis as part of the Neckbreakers Ball Tour. Commented guitarist Jeff Kendrick: "For the last couple of weeks we have been enjoying mainland Europe and I can say that the shows have been nothing short of fucking amazing as well.
"This time around Behemoth is still here with us (as we are flip-flopping with them during dates all over Europe) and we welcomed Scar Symmetry and Arsis to the tour. Neither band I have ever been very familiar with but they are both killing it and love to share a post gig beer with the entire tour.
"I love making new friends on tour and traveling so much we meet all kinds of people. I am always down for new friends as it just makes the entire touring experience a lot better. When your tourmates are cool, it just makes the time go by that much quicker!
"We spent our first Halloween outside of the United States ever! It was kind of weird, to be honest, and absolutely No One dressed up at all.
"One realizes that Halloween is such an American holiday. Traveling so much you realize the cultural differences in the world. Although some of them are kind of a bummer (like Halloween in Germany), meeting new people and experiencing new cultures, people and holidays abroad is always really fucking great!!!
"Needless to say, Behemoth dressed us up in black metal makeup and we represented Halloween as well as we could! We were all in black metal paint and by the looks of all the fans, we definitely gained their approval. We rocked it!"
