Metal Riot

Ohio’s metalcore sextet The Devil Wears Prada have premiered the video of their first single from “Dead Throne” online today. “Born to Lose” is now streaming online. The video is set against a white background without any light to the band, giving them a moving shadow look. It then blends some imagery of coveted possessions, money, sex, an apple, and others against their new logo in a steel sculpture. The imagery suggests a visualization of their anti-idolatry theme on this record. Check the video out here.

The Devil Wears Prada released “Dead Throne” last week on Ferret Music.

Ohio metalcore front-runners The Devil Wears Prada have offered up another slice from their upcoming release, “Dead Throne.”  “Mammoth” comes to us just weeks away from the album’s release. Vocalist Mike Hranica comments: “The new record contains the heavy aspects of the ‘Zombie EP’, meshed with the melody of the full-lengths. By all means I’d call it our most emotional, well-written album to date.”

“Dead Throne” drops September 13th on Ferret Music.

Cleveland, Ohio’s metal legends Chimaira issued this statement regarding the departure of their keyboardinst/programmer Chris Spicuzza:

“As we know this news sucks… hopefully this cheers you up a little.

“there are definitely samples, keys, electronics, and all sorts of other wizardry on this record. we’ve spent the past 12 years creating the atmospheric side of chimaira, and we can’t imagine listening to us without those cool bits either. each album brought new noises and a vibe to accompany that particular record. nothing has changed in that regard. this has always been an evolution. while it may seem like the end of days, we see this as another chapter. chimaira developed our sound together with chris, and although he is gone, his spirit, class, and the foundation he helped lay, will always remain.

“you know us. we don’t drive our cars looking through the rearview mirror. never have, never will. keep the glasses half full, amigos. it makes for a much more interesting ride….and we’re just getting started. yes, rob is still in Chimaira. Six Feet Under is a side project. Maynard James Keenan sings for 3 bands. Rob plays guitar for 3. It’s all gravy.

“Thanks for your continuous support”

Direct from Eudora, Kansas comes The Devil Wears Prada. Holed up in Blacklodge Studio, the Dayton, Ohio sextet let loose and let the creativity flow in these writing sessions. Actual studio production began a couple weeks ago in Massachusetts with production beast Adam D. Also, synth/key production is being handled by Joey Sturgis (who’s done all of the TDWP records). The album is written and production underway. It shouldn’t be much longer. Stay tuned for updates.

Previously, The Devil Wears Prada released “Zombie,” an super awesome five song concept EP about a zombie apocalypse, on Ferret Music.
