NEWS: Devolver love guitar hero!
While we impatiently wait on news of the sophomore album from Canadians Devolver, the band have premiered a second single from the Mark Lewis (Deicide, Devildriver, Whitechapel) produced affair in “New Blood” alongside a music video that pays homage to Guitar Hero. That follows “Jewels of the Maw“, a cut released back in July that has left us foaming at the mouth with the bands blatant Gothenburg sound worship…
The band comment: “We had someone make the Guitar Hero charts for New Blood and Jewels Of The Maw, so if you play Clone Hero on PC you can download and play our songs! About the song, it’s an amalgamation of riffs written in a single sitting whilst Devin was sitting on a staircase bullshitting with Bevin. It was quickly developed into a skeleton structure at which point Bevin wrote drums for the song. After a tweak to the chorus, the song was finished until lyrics were added and a solo was added after the first chorus per Mark Lewis’ suggestion. This song doesn’t sit down at all and goes right until it ends. With chugging riffs, interesting melodies, ripping solos, and a catchy yet memorable chorus, we feel “New Blood” is putting our best foot forward.”
