"When you've got nothing, you've got nothing to lose"
Born and raised on the eastcoast, DAVEY SUICIDE's fearless lifestyle led him to pack his life into a van, leaving his friends, family and previous band of 6 years behind in the fall of 07. He drove cross-country to LA without a home or a job awaiting him upon his arrival. Shortly after coming to LA, Davey met Derik Envy through a mutual friend and the two began writing songs together. They soon became roommates and continued creating songs that would end up comprising the early Trauma Deville demos.
Through the guidance of mentor, Mitch Allan, Davey realized they needed an innovative lead guitarist to round out the sound. Entering, J. Devine. Devine was so eager to be in the band that he YouTubed himself playing guitar leads to the early demos which landed him an audition and a slot in the band.
In February 09, Davey met with producer Tomas Costanza who got the vision of the band and lobbied to do the record. Upon agreeing, Costanza took the guys on an extensive 5 week pre-production binge that lead to the eventual tracking of the album in March 09. Bill Appleberry signed up to mix the album in between producing The Used and Stone Temple Pilots new albums. With a strong team in place, Mike Laser was brought in to master the album and put the finishing touches on this "in your face rock opera."
Shortly thereafter, bassist, T. and Danny Deville made the same cross country move to team up and comprise the 4th and 5th members of TRAUMA DEVILLE.
The Album dropped on September 11th and the band is currently slugging it out on the KILLERS NEVER DIE TOUR which spans the United States on 60+ shows from September 10 through December 13th.
Independence Day is now available on ITUNES, SHOCKHOUND & all digital retailers, along with the MERCH STORE on TRAUMADEVILLE.net
