The Devil Makes Three Releases “Chains Are Broken”

The Devil Makes Three: Chains Are BrokenFolk/Americana group The Devil Makes Three has released Chains Are Broken, which marks their sixth studio album and first of all original material since 2013. The trio also stuck to its core members – Pete Bernhard, Lucia Turino, and Cooper McBean – with only one guest on the album. Their touring drummer Stefan Amidon adds some extra support to their sound, especially on the track “Paint My Face”, which features some nice bass work by Turino.

“‘Paint My Face’ reflects the extra rock & roll edge that Amidon, the band’s touring drummer, brings to the equation, as the song is a crunchy shuffle with a quivering, cascading electric guitar line,” the band explains. “Despite its somewhat sinister tone, ‘Paint My Face’ is as much a song about rebirth, both spiritual and creative, as it is about death.”

Chains Are Broken is available now on CD, vinyl and as a digital download (iTunes and Amazon MP3).
