BiografieAfter its establishment in 2000 by Guido de Jongh (guitar) and Frank Schilperoort (drums) the band played numerous crushing gigs (inter)nationally. 2003 saw the release of their first full length album “Acts of Rage”. Devious was signed by Spitzenburg Records and therewith established itself as one of The Netherlands most promising acts.
After the release of “Acts of Rage” the band shared stages with the likes of Cannibal Corpse, Cryptopsy, Suffocation, Vader, Darkane, Crowbar, Aborted, The Dillinger Escape Plan, God Dethroned, Malevolent Creation en Dying Fetus. In 2006 Devious successfully toured Europe with Brazilian based band Krisiun. This tour, amongst other shorter tours, introduced the band to countries like Germany, Great Britain, Belgium, Poland, Hungary, Austria, Czech Republic and Slovenia.Their 2nd full length “Domain”, introducing vocalist Coen Tabak, was released on February 1st 2007 by Deity Down Records. Besides 12 grooving death metal tracks, the album features a professionally shot video of the song “Room 302” (directed by Robin van Belzen). The album received critical acclaim internationally by press and metal audiences alike. With the release of the album “Domain”, Devious proved itself to be a first class act in the extreme metal genre. On this album, Devious combines modern death metal with the band’s original thrash roots in a unique way, keeping the emphasis on groove and variation.
