DevilDriver have announced their eleventh album Strike And Kill, due for release on 10th July 2026 via Napalm Records.
“My headspace hasn’t changed, I have not become complacent or soft in my view of the world or in my music,” says vocalist Dez Fafara. “Metal is our outlet as listeners and writers, so on this record we focused on ‘getting it all out’ lyrically, and backing those lyrics with savage, relentless music that fuels the heavy California groove like no other. DevilDriver has never sounded like any other band, we do our own thing in our own way, and I’m the most proud of that.
“I’m so proud of these musicians, this music, and the vibe around this record. DevilDriver sounds like no one else out there right now, we are here to Strike And Kill!”
In light of the announcement, the band have also released a video for their new single Dig Your Own Grave.
“Dig Your Own Grave is about how one wrong decision, one wrong move can see your whole world turned upside down, effectively ‘digging’ your own grave… it’s that simple,” Fafara adds.
“It can also refer to how your decisions can fuck someone else. This is why there’s the line ‘six feet ain’t deep enough for you’, because only a deep, deep hole is fitting for what you’ve done or tried to do to others. Be careful when you choose to make decisions at midnight.”
Strike And Kill is available to pre-order HERE.
