If you didnt have Christian metalcore on your top of the 2009 charts bingo card, you might be excusedbut that gives you an idea of how eagerly awaited With Roots Above and Branches Below was, and how well it delivered the goods. Dayton band The Devil Wears Prada had built their audience through performing (most notably on the 2008 and 2009 Warped tours) and by some video airplay on MTV, but this release blew away everybodys expectations, going to #11 on the Billboard Top 200 and commanding the #1 position on the Top Independent Albums, Top Hard Rock Albums, and Top Christian Albums charts. The key was, in the words of vocalist Daniel Hranica, their darker, heavier, and more epic sound, as crazed verses alternate with anthemic choruses to create a disorienting thrill ride of a record. Add to that the foreboding album art by noted heavy metal artist Daniel Seagrave, and With Roots Above and Branches Below lives up to its title, where up is down and down is up. Our vinyl release comes in decepticons vinyl, with a printed inner sleeve featuring lyrics, and is limited to 300 copies, exclusive to Artist Friendly. Buckle up!
