Description
The Devil Wears Prada consistently choose to both challenge themselves and the world around them. The group—Mike Hranica [vocals], Jeremy DePoyster [vocals, guitar], Andy Trick [bass], Kyle Sipress [guitar], Jonathan Gering [keys, synthesizers], and Giuseppe Capolupo [drums]—bend and break all boundaries. Pulling plain-spoken poetry through distorted discord and dissonance, The Devil Wears Prada delivers a dynamic and definitive statement on the "ZII" album.
"There's no question that the Zombie EP (released in 2010) is a fan favorite and a record that really set the pace for us as a heavier band. A goal we had for this EP was to pay tribute to Z1 while honing in on the characteristics that we enjoy about heavy music today and the directions we want to see it heading."
"We just had our first song go to radio with 'Chemical', and now in the same year we will be releasing the heaviest music of our career with "ZII." This isn’t just a new chapter for the Zombie EP this is a new chapter for us as a band, and an opportunity to lean into both sounds in ways that feel better than ever. We’ve found our footing with these six members and now we're stepping on the gas and not letting up.”
"Before, there were five songs about how to fend off the apocalypse. Now there are five songs of hopelessness against the hoard.”
The Devil Wears Prada positioned themselves for meaningful reinvention. Following their 2005 emergence, they served up 2009’s seminal With Roots Above and Branches Below, boasting fan favorites such as “Dez Moines,” “Louder Than Thunder,” “Danger: Wildman,” and more. In its wake, the outfit achieved two back-to-back Top 10 entries on the Billboard Top 200 with the Zombie EP [2010], and Dead Throne [2011] . The group kept up a prolific pace on 8:18 [2013], Space EP [2015], and Transit Blues [2016] and The Act [2019]. This output of new music garnered widespread acclaim from Kerrang!, Revolver, Rock Sound, New Noise, and Alternative Press who proclaimed it “an impressive step forward.” In addition to selling out countless headline shows, the musicians toured with everyone from Slipknot to Slayer. Not to mention, their total stream tally impressively nearing 200 million in 2020. Buy your copy of The Devil Wears Prada's ZII on vinyl today.
