Devil You Know added to Soundwave 2016
Another day, another dollar... No, another Soundwave artist announcement. Today, Soundwave HQ revealed that Devil May Know are the eighth artist to join the list of bands appearing at the 2016 edition of the festival. Devil May Know join Bring Me the Horizon, Finland's Lordi, Sweden's Refused, the reformed Failure, Australia's Dead Letter Circus and Welsh metal titans Bullet For My Valentine for the three date festival next January.
Devil You Know began as a journey into the unknown. Howard Jones (Ex Killswitch Engage), Francesco Artusato (All Shall Perish), John Sankey (Fear Factory, Divine Heresy), and Ryan Wombacher (Bleeding Through) all shared a determined strength born of the tension between tragedy and ambition, the fight between creative satisfaction and musical abandon, and the might of collective experience have coalesced with powerful aggression and brilliant precision.
They Bleed Red, the band’s ferocious new album, due out this November, extinguishes any so called “sophomore slump” without mercy. It’s the sound of primal bloodlust. A journey through rage, despair and every emotion in between, Devil You Know represents the most assured, impassioned, authentic, and versatile work of each of the band members’ careers thus far. What’s most exciting of all? Devil You Know has just got started. The group who took home Best New Artist at Metal Hammer’s Golden Gods Awards in 2014, share legions of fans, millions of albums sold and SWHQ are thrilled to have them performing at Soundwave 2016.
They Bleed Red is available for pre-order now in various formats and bundles. Previous album Beauty Of Destruction is available form JB HiFi and other major outlets.
