January 10, 2011"Dead To Rights", the first single from DEVILDRIVER's forthcoming fifth album, "Beast", is available for free download at RoadrunnerRecords.com (free e-mail sign-up required).
"'Beast' is an attack from start to finish and 'Dead To Rights' is just the beginning of the onslaught!" states DEVILDRIVER frontman Dez Fafara. "The song itself is directly about a person close to you that you know a secret about / something unseen by other eyes. You hang with this person, and you are friends but you know in your mind the 'character,' the 'credible' aspects regarding the trust of this person are in question due to the way they've treated someone else or others in general. You've got them 'Dead To Rights'..."
