      In 96 i walked in the music shop with a pencil, and a peice of paper and i “stole” tabs by writing down notes and chords and going home and learning them. I noticed alot of green day songs used 2 notes that were 2 frets apart and once i discovered how much i could learn with just that power chord shape, there was no stopping me

      6:30 song the intro alone is like 1:45 and unlike most long songs every single second of that song is amazing hell the whole. Album is fucking EPIC!!!

    The main problem in Devil Driver is that Dez sings ALL THE TIME, no pause, no breathing... check it out, once he start singing he wont shut up until the end of the song. This makes all the songs sound the same and you ended up bored and tired, threfore not too exited about their new releases. I wish the riffs and drums shine a bit more bringing more textures and flavours to their material because they are good musicians.

    The Black Album is when Metallica went from Metal too Hard Rock. Basically they weakened there sound to appeal to a bigger fan base for more 💰 which is called “Selling out”. Lars drumming went from thrash metal drumming to AC/DC drumming. Slayer on the other hand stayed true to metal and still kick ass to this very day!

    If Metallica was such a big influence on him, you think he would have learned to write better riffs. All those Devil Driver riffs he played sound like generic death metal meets generic nu metal - completely unmemorable.
