The Devil Wears Prada

December 4, 2011 Fort Lauderdale. "The fact that we can write music that makes people move in a way that in turn makes us move; it’s a giant circle of energy and it just feeds off each other...it's the best feeling in the world" says Daniel Williams, drummer for The Devil Wears Prada, describing the dynamics of the stage and mosh pit. Guitarist Jeremy DePoyster adds "We take it so personally if people don’t enjoy the show."

New album and tour DEAD THRONE has most definitely elevated TDWP to stake their claim as heavy weights in Christian metalcore. But this is a band that does not want fans to put them on a throne or pedestal; which happens to also be the theme of the album. Humble and hard working are the foundational Christian values that feed the band. Hardcore metal is the fuel that ignites them in the studio and on stage. OFC met up with Jeremy and Daniel at Revolution Live to catch up on The Devil Wears Prada's epic year. 2011 boasts the band's fifth album, pumped up production Dead Throne Tour and "Zombie Slay" mobile device game on iTunes!
