Devane

***FOR T SHIRTS AND MERCHANDISE CLICK ME***let the reviews speak for themselves...*"Devane is a four-person group hailing from Marietta, Georgia. All of the songs have a distinct feel, and therefore it's hard to really make specific musical comparisons. At times I thought I heard a little (mature) Kiss, at others some smooth and polished WASP... but neither of those are dead-on, as at other times early Fates Warning managed to creep in... though not as prog-influenced. Some of the lead guitar toolings remind of George Lynch's style, and the lead vocals bring to mind a rougher, grittier Ron Taylor (Lillian Axe). In all, a fairly original indie release, and an excellent booklet/packaging as well.-UMR Metal Reviews *Prey: It should be a law that every Metal song should have a riff that starts this way. This CD has a cross of Dokken meets Saigon Kick. It will be in my computers jukebox to listen to at work.-Emerald Monkey *Ever since Devane graced KRav radio with a few cd's for the masses, I was knocked back by the tight, aggressive, powerful message's in their tunes. This group will go far and KRav stands proud to play them on the airwaves" -KRAV radio *"Very cool!" *"Still in the cd player!" -Michael Gillan-KNAC*One thing about Devane that immediately will strike the listener is the inability to define their music. This is not a cookie cutter sub-genre sort of release as Devane really crafts a sound all their own. Bringing to the table an unusual combination of glam and goth metal elements, their sound all comes together in suprisingly strong fashion. The vocals can be soft yet have an underlying aggression reminding me of Armored Saint's John Bush meeting WASP's Blackie Lawless in a dark alley. The music has a very Def Leppard quality to it, but is darker than their work and for the most part, heavier. Very melodic and a breath of fresh air in an often too stagnant music world, look for Devane to make their mark soon. -Reviewed By StygianSteel*"Prey" is one of this songs that have this little special/different thing, as if an exclamation mark came to your mind while listening. It's from these kinds of songs existing as to spread a band name and climb chart steps easily. If I have to rate my top of the top song, that would be "Do you ?". Though, each song's entirely different from the others, "Do you ?" is apart. With an mid-eastern touch, it's a strong and profound scream of love. Is there one girl to resist ? I couldn't. If you hate monotony and like various and good metal, Devane's debut album is for you. You have never heard something like this before. Their sound is unique as is their style. Excellent and various, each song has its proper life, its proper taste but none depart from the others and, above all, they're all a part of the same whole. -Metal Inn reviewWhat more could we say?
