The boys are already in the studio laying tracks for their second album. Nine songs have been mixed and more studio time is scheduled for the end of May. Everyone is really excited about the new album. The band has been together for a solid year now and the sound that has grown with them is explosive. So watch out and hang on tight because this next disc kicks ass!
Along with recording the album, Devilhead was asked to cut a track for the new Crow II movie. Other bands rumored to be on the soundtrack are Nine Inch Nails {called Six Inch Nails in the actual newsletter printing}, and Rollins Band. And what about “Too Much Protection” on Party of Five - watch those reruns to catch Devilhead playing on the jeep radio.
A lot of folks have been asking about the Malfunkshun CD. Loosegroove pushed back the release date to April so keep your fingers crossed and your eyes open.
