DEVILDRIVER have revealed their fifth video clip related to their forthcoming outlaw-country-gone-metal album, Outlaws ‘Til The End, Vol. 1, set for release via Napalm Records on 6th July 2018. The fifth segment, entitled ‘The Cash Cabin’, features members of DEVILDRIVER, album guests John Carter Cash (son of country music legend Johnny Cash) and Randy Blythe of Lamb of God discussing the recording of ‘Ghost Riders in the Sky’ at the famous Cash Cabin where Johnny and June Carter Cash recorded most of their later music. Watch here:
DEVILDRIVER frontman Dez Fafara says, “I was very fortunate to record there and be able to sign the mantle, like, the mantle that Johnny Cash built in his cabin… it was unbelievable for me.” Dez adds, “Meeting John Carter Cash was an incredible thing… he told us some stuff his dad had done in there… I found it very interesting that a lot of these real country cats listen to metal. The first story John Carter Cash told us was about his father taking him to go see Ozzy.”
John Carter Cash adds, “I sang the choruses… and then my wife Ana did some high parts here and there. It was exciting. We don’t do a lot of that kind of music in the cabin… we have tracked metal at my studio and a lot of rock n’ roll, a lot of loud guitars… but real metal, not that much. So, it was a blessing to have it there and be able to have a chance to be a part of something exciting and different…”
Randy Blythe offers, “[Dez] was like, do you want to sing ‘Ghost Riders’ with me and John Carter Cash and I was like “Absolutely!” Who wouldn’t want to? It was a lot of fun… I sat there and sweated and screamed… it was a good time!”
