DevilDriver was headling at Le Trabendo, Paris, France on April 1st 2014.

The five-pieces band from California is playing a Groove / Melodic Death Metal, which alternates soft and heavy with fast and hard music and vocals. Their music is quite catching and usually good at moving crowds around, I remember seeing the biggest circle pit ever during their show in Download Festival years ago. Dez Fafara on vocals is the strong point of the show. As he claims during the show, he has ADD and is quite hyper. Love when he said “California is a great place, you can both snowboard and surf on the same day”, well this guy knows how to talk to me! That’s quite strange to see him with a beard though, I’m quite used to his tattooed shin! Jeff Kendrick on guitar and the new recruit Chris Towning on bass are the shave heads of the groupe, and they put a good display on stage, putting on faces and display there playing skills. Mike Spreitzer on the guitar and John Boecklin on drums are quite calms on stage.

The shows starts quite early nowdays during the week and ends even earlier, that probably explains why the venue was not fool, but the public really seemed to enjoy the show, singing along and getting hyper on the pit! A good show with good music, clearly the highlight of the evening even though I saw crazier shows from them.

Setlist:

1. Head on to Heartache (Let Them Rot)
2. Hold Back the Day
3. Not All Who Wander Are Lost
4. Before the Hangman’s Noose

12. Ruthless
13. Meet the Wretched

This band from Reading, England, is playing a metal at the crossing of trash, death and progressive. Quite technical and powerfull with deep voice from the singer. Vocalist/lead guitar Josh Middleton is quite passive on stage, but that is often the case when you have to focus too much on your music. Rhythm guitar Alex Bailey looks shy on stage. Bass guitar Carl Parnell is quite the headbanger. Drum was taken over by Ali Richardson from Bleed From Within, and was thanked by Josh as they would not have been able to play otherwise. Not sure if this is only for the show or the tour though! The public was quite enthusiastic and circle pit was all around the pit!

Setlist:

1. Fear The World

2. Stained Humanity

3. Conclusion Of An Age

4. All Is Not Well

5. Teras

6. Altered States of Consciousness

The five pieces scottish band from Glasgow is made up of Scott Kennedy on vocals, Ali Richardson on drums, Davie Provan on bass guitar and Craig Gowans and Martyn Evans on guitars. And well if you missed their accent, you can’t miss the gingers!

They play a deathcore / metalcore that is quite OK, though maybe it tend to lack a bit in deversity as it often do. But they did definatly warm the pit, even managing to get people to do a wall of death which is quite impressive for an opening band (well, only about 20 people but still!)

Setlist:

1. Intro

2. Leech

3. Uprising

4. The Novelist

5. I Am Oblivion

6. III

7. Colony

8. It Lives In Me

I never quite enjoyed the few songs post Max Cavalera era I heard in the past, but nothing as good as a good live show to make a good opinion on a band. And I was quite please with the way  Paulo Xisto Pinto, Jr (bass guitar and backing vocals – only original member remaining), Andreas Kisser (lead guitar, backing vocals),  Derrick Green (lead vocals, percussion) and Eloy Casagrande (drums, percussion) were performing on stage. I was especially excited when the songs from the first 6 albums were played.
