The Jersey Devil is Here

The Temptation and the Taboo, Part 1

Rockin' Til the Apocalypse
Upcoming
"If any proof is needed that the power of blues is easier to find than ever, look no further than Darren Deicide," says The Aquarian Weekly. Darren Deicide was born on Halloween in the rhythm and blues filled environment of Chicago. With his self-taught playing style, trademark vocals that one review said "makes Satan himself feel as if he is not sinister enough", and a stomping foot, Darren Deicide delivers a contemporary style of roots-influenced rock that has been described as "John Lee Hooker meets Johnny Rotten" and "raw, bluesy punk by a one-man dervish". Like his own multi-cultural background, his music is an eclectic hybrid of many blues-based styles, but remains, as described in another review, as "good, pissed snot-infested rock n roll". Always a fixture on the independent music scene, Darren Deicide would ultimately ramble his way to New Jersey. There he initiated Ever Reviled Records, a collectively owned and run record label that releases counter-cultural music. He maintains a continuous touring schedule and has played with an array of notable artists around the American east coast, south, and midwest that has spanned from Dead Prez to Danny and the Juniors. He's played on Fox 5's "Good Day New York" as a featured artist on the Make Music New York festival and has had articles printed in a number of publications, including the long running column "Agent Provocateur" in The Aquarian Weekly. In addition he has been featured at Louisville, KY's Good Folk Fest and at Washington, NJ's "Festival in the Borough" amongst other festivals. The Jersey Devil is Here, his third full-length release, was recorded in analog reel-to-reel and is available now on Ever Reviled Records.
