ABOUT
Devilfire are a 5-piece hard melodic rock engine from Birmingham, England formed off the back of an early studio session between long term friends, Alex Cooper (producer) and drummer, Lars Wickett. Their working project, then known as Devilstar, took 3 years to gestate before things fell into place on a lengthy tour of Eastern Europe as guests to Tarja Turunen. That tour cemented a growing reputation as a live force and what followed was the undeniable power of their debut album, Dark Manoeuvres, released in 2017 to high acclaim.
​
Dark Manoeuvres was followed up with further sold-out dates on the road before the release of a short-run EP ‘Out Of The Dark’ to placate fans’ demands for further material.
​
Now, with the release of the single Dream Evil, they introduce the world to their new full-length album Black Soul Vendetta. And they have only just begun.
