The Devil Wears Prada working on new record

"We are working on stuff right now, and I want to put the right amount of time into it since there was pressure and eyes on our current record. There will be more pressure and eyes on the next record to see if we can keep doing it.

The Devil Wears Prada guitarist Jeremy DePoyster has posted an update regarding the band's progress writing for the follow up to the band's newest album "Roots Above & Branches Below".


"We are working on stuff right now, and I want to put the right amount of time into it since there was pressure and eyes on our current record. There will be more pressure and eyes on the next record to see if we can keep doing it.


"We're still writing and have tours planned, so hopefully we can find some studio time. It's a little early to say. We'll see. We spend so much time on the road and working together that it's like we find time. We already wrote some songs, and Chris [Rubey] has been writing on his laptop. I'll chime in, change parts or record vocals. We have a mobile setup.


"What we did last time was take six weeks before a tour, met four or five times a week, and six weeks after a tour, five or six days a week and cracked down. We rented a warehouse space and wrote everything. We will do the same thing this time. That environment creates more of a vibe than demos on laptop."
