DevilDriver is a groove metal band from California, United States. The group was started by Dez Fafara, formerly of the band Coal Chamber, as a result of frustrations stemming from the more mainstream direction his former band mates were attempting to take their music. After the demise of Coal Chamber, DevilDriver became his main focus. Their debut album, the self-titled “DevilDriver”, was released on October 23, 2003 under Roadrunner Records.

Their second album, “The Fury of Our Maker’s Hand”, was released in 2005 and was generally well-received by fans and critics alike, even garnering a 4K review from renowned rock magazine Kerrang. The band went on numerous tours in support of the album, including stops in the USA, Europe, and Australia in support of Fear Factory, as well as the Burning Daylight Tour, their first headlining.

On October 31, 2006, DevilDriver re-released their 2005 album “The Fury of Our Makers Hand” with three additional studio tracks and three live recordings of previously released material. The special edition also contains a DVD of all of their music videos to date.

“The Last Kind Words” is the third studio album by DevilDriver, released in the United States on July 31, 2007. It was released in the United Kingdom on June 19. The album debuted at number 48 on the U.S. Billboard 200, selling about 14,000 copies in its first week.

"I don't understand the 'groove metal' tag itself, sounds stupid. I just call it metal, lol. I don't get sub-genres. [2] " Groove metal uses techniques such as mid-tempo thrash riffs focusing on heaviness and groovy syncopation, along with mid-paced guitar solos, vocals usually consist of thrash metal-styled shouts, hardcore-styled barks, and clean singing. Groove metal drums typically use double-bass drumming, with emphasis on using the double bass drum in waves (shamelessly c+p from wikipedia). In short, It's death/melodic death metal except for the occassional use of clean vocals and slower paced riff's and solo's. But personally, I just call it metal, because that's the shortest, possibly most general way to describe the way devildriver sound.

I would agree with the dude below... Dez isn't a very good vocalist, in concert or on album. Many of the people in my area that I encounter that like DD typically like anything with distortion and screaming for the sake of screaming, so I guess he fits thier liking. On the other hand, I haven't liked him at all, now or with Coal Chamber.

The new album is great. Sounds a lot like arch enemy besides the vocals. The nu metal influences are completely gone.

I saw them a couple months ago and they were pretty good, I mean, what else do you expect from a singer like that? plus he was wearing a Black Flag shirt so that was pretty epic

I don't understand why most groove metal bands are tagged as metalcore, groove metal is more similar to death metal then to metalcore. I mean isn't metalcore partly clean vocals? Anyway, this band is awesome, love all their music. [2]
