Full Devil Jacket is an American alternative metal/post-grunge band from Jackson, Tennessee, formed in 1997.[1]

History

[edit]

Formation and success

[edit]

Musicians Josh Brown, Mike Reaves, Kevin Bebout, and Keith Foster all met at Josh Brown's brother's tattoo shop in Jackson, Tennessee and formed the band Voodoo Hippies. Jonathan Montoya was the last addition to the band as the second guitarist. While still playing gigs in Jackson, the band caught the eye of rock producer Malcolm Springer (Matchbox 20, Collective Soul).

Before being signed to Island/Def Jam Records, the band changed its name to Full Devil Jacket. There are two stories on how the band chose this name. One is that the band was named after a song written by lead singer Josh Brown, called "Full Devil Jacket". Another story is that the band simply pulled the name from a magazine article.

While signed to Def Jam Records, the band had a successful career. They first released an EP titled A Waxbox to Put Your Frankenstein Head In... in October 1999,[2] followed by an eponymous LP in March 2000[2] that was certified gold.[1]

The band toured with Creed, Nickelback, Type O Negative, played at Woodstock 99, and was featured on the Tattoo the Earth tour with Mudvayne, Slipknot, Sepultura, Slayer, Drain STH, and Coal Chamber with Metallica headlining one show. However, while on tour with Creed, Josh Brown suffered a drug overdose and subsequently quit the band.[3] An unfinished album from this time remains unreleased. Some of the songs the band was working on were "Shelter", "All Apologies", "Superdysfunctional Hero", and "Bottle".

After the departure of Brown, Michael Reaves also left the band. Full Devil Jacket recruited a new lead singer (Ben Hatch; then Jamie Martin) and a new second guitarist (Dave White) and recorded an unreleased EP under their new name of WaxBox before dissolving altogether. This incarnation of the band worked on some of the same songs that they started with Brown. The EP included "Shelter", "All Apologies", "Superdysfunctional Hero", and "Sober".

Reunion

[edit]

Full Devil Jacket announced a one-time reunion concert on June 19, 2010, in Jackson, Tennessee, to benefit the James Michael Reaves Medical Expense Fund. This led to more live performances as well as recording new material. On July 27, 2011, James Michael Reaves died after battling cancer.[4] Every Mother's Nightmare guitarist Jeff Caughron joined the band after Reaves' death.

Brown and Montoya also formed a new band with Jason Null from Saving Abel named A New Rebel. FDJ members Keith Foster and Kevin Bebout were also involved.

In 2013, the band started a Kickstarter page to help fund and promote a new album. On January 14, 2015, it was announced that FDJ signed a worldwide deal with eOne Music. Their album Valley of Bones was released on March 31. It contains 10 new songs and feature cover art of a painting by singer Josh Brown.[5]

During the spring of 2015, FDJ opened for Hinder during their "When the Smoke Clears" tour.

In September 2015, the band toured with American rock band Bridge to Grace from Atlanta, Georgia.[6]

The band's current lineup consists of Josh Brown (vocals), Brian Kirk (guitar), Paul Varnick (guitar), Moose Douglass (bass) and Keith Foster (drums).

Musical style

[edit]

AllMusic described the band as a "hard-hitting post-grunge/alt-metal outfit [that] invokes names like Staind, Godsmack, and Alice in Chains".[1]
