I'm not sure how well known this band is but if you haven't heard of Bloodbath you absolutely have to pick up the album 'Nightmares Made Flesh'. Fucking amazing. Has a Devil Driver feel to it but they actually sound surprisingly unique.
By far one of the best bounds I've found thanks to pandora. Dew Scented isn't bad but I haven't heard enough of their stuff yet.

Bloodbath is a death metal tribute band containing members from Opeth (although not on the album you have) and Katatonia. Both excellent bands by the way. They are basically emulating the old school (late 80's/early 90's) death metal sound of bands like Entombed and Dismember. So they do not sound unique at all really (but on purpose).
If you really are into metal there really are much better bands outthere than Devil Driver.

Did I say that they were the best? I just felt Bloodbath had a sound that was similar to DD. I wasn't introduced to metal until the late 90s so that's why I've never even heard of the bands you say they are emulating.Die wrote:Bloodbath is a death metal tribute band containing members from Opeth (although not on the album you have) and Katatonia.
