In stylish gear news, drummer Austin D’Amond of the California groove metal band DevilDriver recently got together with Fatal Clothing Co. to make a one-of-a-kind custom drum wrap for his Yamaha Tour Custom drum set. The wrap was inspired by the Fatal lifestyle and his personal moniker “thug metal” which combines the genres of both hip-hop and metal to create a unique and kickass crossover. This style was then combined with the clothing company’s knack for motorcycles, tattoos, sugar skulls, and all other kinds of badassery, as well as some bandana print, Los Angeles skyline, official DevilDriver logo, and some gold coloring on a metallic vinyl to tie it all together. The result is this modern, urban take on some classic hip-hop and heavy metal imagery.
But don’t just take our word for it; see for yourself below!
To show off the sick new skins, Austin will be repping this kit on DevilDriver’s upcoming Outlaws ‘Til The End’ U.S. Headline Tour with Jinjer and Raven Black. Be sure to snag your tickets here.
