This tour marks a significant moment for Devildriver, as it will be their first time performing new material from Strike and Kill live. The album is expected to showcase the band's signature blend of heavy metal and aggressive vocals, with a focus on intense, fast-paced rhythms and dark, atmospheric lyrics. The addition of support acts Upon a Burning Body and Ov Sulfur will likely create a dynamic and energetic atmosphere at each show.
In my opinion, this tour is a must-see for fans of heavy metal and Devildriver. The band's live performances are renowned for their intensity and theatrics, and with the new album's release, fans will have the opportunity to witness the evolution of Devildriver's sound. The tour also highlights the growing popularity of extreme metal and the diverse range of sub-genres within the genre. It will be interesting to see how the band engages with their audience and how the support acts contribute to the overall experience. I predict that this tour will be a massive success, solidifying Devildriver's place as one of the leading bands in the extreme metal scene.
