[danieljordison0793]

[mrbubachuck]

awesome! devildriver is amazing!

caught a drumstick a few days ago when i saw them!

[DrummaMuFucka]

Lets just call them metal!!

[Slimshorty93]

heh i call em the true Heavy Metal. the deffination of metal these days has gotten so soft and fcked up. ive heard the stupidest shit like people saying greenday is metal, some nickleback, lmao the stupidest shit. People need to know wut metal is.

[schecter1990]

dude u dnt fuckin no shit bout dez or the band dickhead n they aint metalcore they r groove metal and melo death metal dumn fuck

[SaintJ44]

Wiki says it's melodic death metal and groove metal. I call it Devil Metal. They are their own genre of metal.

[NafeyPoo]

I think devildriver are speed metal to be honest

[bizzycore91]

Devildriver is groove metal, man ^^

[IIIzakyIII]

theyre groove metal

[princi360]

according to scrubs..

listen to resurrection BLVD ..., digging up the corpses there not exactly the fastest but why not just call it metal? simple .

[BoecklinFan09]

Boecklin is FUCKIN AWESOME!!!!

[guitarisforever1234]

what did she say @ 5:04 ?

[celcius119]

Dez definitely looks better without those mutton chops

[ibanezfloyd]

devildriver definitly arent metalcore, whoever thinks or said that should be shot twice in the head for being so fucking stupid.

theyre groove metal/melodic death metal.

[SeventySevenScars]

comon man dez was just saying he isn't a followere of "genres" sure theyre metal no doubt but who seriously cares what genre they are the pint is they're realy good music and we can apreciate that devildriver own

[ibanezfloyd]

i agree i dont care much for it either lol just when people get stupid wrong ideas kinda gets fans off. devildriver are pretty good though i didnt like the new cd that much though :(

[999XLGUITARBOY666]

listen to dez , his voice i really not what you would think

[Labyrinth619]

"Bring Me Songs???" Gimme a break your the lead singer Dez - youre just lucky to be there

[Creepydorky]

do your research dude. Coal Chamber got lumped into "nu-metal" and then they changed their sound on their second record to "define themselves". Devildriver have been a band for quite a few years and have ALWAYS pushed the limits musically. They don't really sound much like any other band out there right now. Go have a listen to the second and third records. And check out their new one on July 14th!!

[SeventySevenScars]

speaking of wich did dez dump coal chamber when he went with devildriver?

[905Justin]

@SeventySevenScars hey wanted a band that was heavier

[Chirz84]

wow pretty lame man

[hetfieldstolemymoney]

do you even know what metalcore is?

[Jeudaos]

dumbass

[vsv23te]

Haha, Dez is a funny guy :D

[iganbarelytohg]

everybody gets older dude doesnt mean hes not one of the greatest lead singers of all time.

[sjard666]

Joey Jordison, you know it's fun to party whit him. xD

[1RevvinFC3S]

Yeah you could say Boecklin likes spending time with his GF- he missed 3 shows in texas (including Ozzfest), one of which I attended, to get married to her. But I don't blame him one bit!

[ThrashMetal3423]

I'm not damned! good album!

[jonneale8494]

Devildriver Rocks Love Dez And John

[mustavios]

Seeing DD is my equivalant to people and what they seek in church.

I go to hear dez talk to me and to show my love of life and friends by MOVING.

haha! I'm no longer damned forever...

[pasqualemcneb]

how about devildriver *in* church?! lol

[arghydoodles]

Dez sounds a bit English, btw English people aren't posh the common kids are prats but well is he English? any part?? hmmmmmm,.....?!?11one

[cobhcmofo313]

[zaio112]

[WalClaypool]

what happened to his finger?

[DevilDriverPyro]

[Spiyder11]

I agree with morbidangel00 .... I love his hair

[AlphaMaximaVideo]

What happened to his finger?

[kracker740]

i love how, in the making of the newest cd, the lead guitarist said "maybe you can do clean vocals over this guitar part" and Dez was all "no". genius.

[morbidangel00]

Dez is fuckin cute

[scarecrow1292]

dude with cc dez was fuckin insane know hes just so chill and down to earth i think its cool as hell how people chenge

[IanHoopz]

I really wanna meet that fuckin dude, his vocals are off the fucking chain.

[Prometherion91]

He's a great guy to chill with. ;) One of the most hospitable guys you could meet.

[XFunkWizardX]

I think DevilDriver are the awesomest group out there now!!!! But Coal Chamber will always be originaly better...they were increadible.

[kracker740]

coal chamber is not devildriver, and vice versa... both will always be in a class of their own and CANNOT be compared.

[InTheDown]

This interview was awesome and funny.

[XdeathovertimeX]

Saw them a few weeks ago! Fucking rocked!!

[wizz747]

DevilDriver rocks!

[Deadite369]

It's crazy how meek Dez is.

[pladlakd]

[hanalooloo]

[pladlakd]

[tivald]

[idodrugs666]

i got the cd about 3 months before it hit stores =)

[fuckchristiens]

both bands are great its just good that dez started yet another kick ass band and stop fucking posting coments insulting the bands coal chamber kicks ass and devildriver kicks ass.

[cody2mx]

never heard coal chamber,any suggestions,favorite songs.

[fuckchristiens]

loco,fiend,shock the monky,clock,and sway

if you like what you hear then let me know and ill name some more songs

any suggestions on bands you like that you would recomend to me

[wethepeople10136]

thy Will be Done listen to any song on thier CD, they are all good

[fuckchristiens]

true

how long have you listen to them

[casperado666]

Big Truck, Dark Days, and Burgundy, I don'T know why i fucking love Burgundy and of course Loco is the fucking best

[VEGETADTX]

I nowhere said anything offensive for Devil Driver, I even said they are not bad... So I don't see why u don't respect it.

Honestly, for me your post is piece of crap also, but that does not mean I should swear and curse you..

Anyway I don't give a damn! for my taste CC Rocks million times more than DD, and that will not be changed.

[casperado666]

Man i just love CC as much as i luv DD but DD is like a little more grown up music, you know. The Guitarists actually play something ambitious. CC was like a fun band - it was more primitive than Devildriver and you can't deny it. Look at Meegs' new band (Glass Pinata), the guy really can't play guitar, I'm sorry to say it but it's true. But the VOcals of Dez in Coal Chamber were somehow cooler. So every of these bands has it's good sides

[VEGETADTX]

Ok that's your opinion, but I disagree with "it was primitive than Devildriver" What is for you primitve?

For me primitive is DD, where every song is almost the same, yeah they rock a little bit, but they are still the SAME - "trrr rc tc tc tc.." sound like classic death metal to me, and what is classic than primitive...

ALSO I don't judge music by someone's guitar skills...I judge it by the general sound, for me music is not a circus, music is music...

But ok we all hear/see it in or own way...

[stringbanger7]

i wouldnt be o quick to judge "meegs" ability to play guitar. john 5 never did anything "amazing" with manson but if you look up his solo stuff the guys is one helluva blues play i mean top notch vai/vaughn stuff. give it a listen youll c what i mean

[casperado666]

yeah, thanx for a hint, but look up glass pinata and you'll see what i mean ;)

[regnier123]

vegetadtx, no one respect your comment cuz your stupid coment is a piece of crap, man you suck, i used to listen coal chamber and now devildriver, i think devildriver is a big improvement, they are doing an incredible job like band, they have a very unique sound so, stop speaking shit about the band of the video when you leave the comment, or no one is gonna respect your coments

[VEGETADTX]

FUCK YOU IDIOTS!!! Have you ever learned to respect someones opinion! Why the fuck you all just attacked me for nothing!!! That is my opinion and FUCK YOU RETARDS!!!

CC is better than DD to me 99999999999999999 times and no one can change my mind!

I didn't said DD is bad, but it goes in the bad direction(bad IMO)

To be the worst for you I am surely not the only one who likes CC more than DD.

And I hope that even Dez will some day say "CC days were the best".

[fragcrag]

they are both kick ass bands cc and dd... Dez is the genius behind them both so they both will pound your dicks into the dirt i personally like dd better, that part is up to the listener all you devildriver fans check out coal chamber, and all you coal chamber fans check out devildriver (i think devildriver will forever rule over cc with an iron fist)

[Omgffsmf]

who the fuck cares what devildriver plays, THEY FUCKING ROCK!!!!!!!

[fuckchristiens]

totally agree dude

[xxPantellicaxx]

Fuck U VEGETADTX Fuck U Man, Coal Chamber Has Nothing On DevilDriver, Plus Why Do U Compare Bands When Dez Could Care Less About His Pass Band

[devildriver22222222]

Fuk u VEGETADTX he is the fukn man now, aniway who really liked CC,

[VEGETADTX]

Dez Fafara used to be more crazy, more stylish, better sense of rhythm and more creative in Coal Chabmer. And he never befoure limit his self to generes...

What's with him now?

This DevilDriver now sounds to me like just one of million classic & cheap death metal shits...which every song from the start to the end goes trrr trrr trrr tc tc trrr trrr trrr tc tc...(drums:)

the only good thing about it is Dez's Voice

[Tangakkai]

Devildriver is byfar not metalcore... it's something way beyond... I would say a mixture of death and thrash metal

[monkehm]

What's wrong with Dez's middle/ring finger on his right hand? Looks like he has them bandaged.

[6youngfretshredder9]

hmmm.....devildriver metal? lol dez talks funny

[sprimusp]

sounds like metalcore to me

[666metalheadftw]

John is crazy, He doesnt get the credit he deserves in drumming. Devildriver Rapes!

[Mushroomhead779]

they sed they're not metal, but they still kik ass!!!

[anticop666]

badass album 2 comments...1 the cure suck (in my opinion) and number 2 fackafacka if you like the hardcore piercings and stuff rather than the music ..i bet you like linkin park

[verms81]

devildriver is the fucking shit and owns all!!!!!!!!!!!!

[fackafacka]

Theres something i dont understand, dez in the past was all like hardcore/piercings/dark and now he looks more like kid rock or some white-trash-from the trailer park mutherfucker... what happened to him ? ... fashion asides, he´s music still rocks

[AngryBananaNG]

Fuck genres. Metal is metal.

[mh92]

devildriver fucking blows coal chamber out of the water!

[sabekkid]

they dont have any type of metal genre... just metal

[Cameljockey213]

they're not thrash, they're groove metal, but they do have both death and thrash metal influences in their sound.

[DawnXOfXTheXAngry]

they're not thrash, or groove metal. i clearly hear death, plain heavy, and black metal influences. who gives a shit. their a badass fucken METAL band

[devilevilwayz]

Devildriver Rocks!

[futurevision84]

The new album is another masterpiece from these guys!Great band!

[laquecuelga666]

It´s plain and straigh Thrash metal...simply...but pretty good

[Omgffsmf]

know your metal man

[venomouscreed]

whiskey+wine+ganja

[Brennafugg]

they sound like a happy couple

[triviumrain210]

lol i remember at one devildriver show that i went to, John Boecklin's dad was stage diving! pretty fucking cool.. but i always wonder how the fuck can DEZ make that powerful voice come out?! i guess it's just something he was born to do..

[dispara]

Brava Elena! Ci siamo conosciute al concerto dei Lamb of God+DevilDriver del dic2005 tra l'altro e in quell'occasione io ho intervistato John:)
