Globally renowned metal group DEVILDRIVER have announced that impending release of a full length album of country gone metal anthems, titled, Outlaws ‘Til The End.

The record is set to defy the preconceived notions of DEVILDRIVER that have formed over the better part of the last two decades. It will feature a massive collection of metal interpretations of classic country tunes, and will also play host to a set of cameos from both metal and country luminaries.

Speaking of the inspiration behind the record, Fafara said “That stuff has always attracted me, and this is absolutely the real McCoy. The blues and outlaw country are what made rock n’ roll. They were around before rock n’ roll… and in my head, I’ve always heard these songs heavy.”

The album is available for preorder now, with more options soon to follow. An album teaser is also now available, which includes a sample clip of the cover of Hank3’s Country Heroes, featuring an appearance from Hank3 Himself.
