Dez Fafara says Coal Chamber has no place in his life right now.
The vocalist says he’s too focused on DevilDriver at the moment while they’re touring in support of Trust No One.
He tells Blunt Mag: “Coal Chamber has no place in my life whatsoever at this point. Not with DevilDriver firing on all cylinders and where we’re at.
“I’m telling you, if you’ve heard Trust No One, the next subsequent records after this are going to be fucking furious. We’ve kept our signature groove, but we’ve also jumped away from any people around us. So we’re really defining ourselves at this point, and stepping completely away from the pack.”
Fafara settled his differences with his former Coal Chamber bandmates in 2011. He also toured with Coal Chamber last year after they released their Rivals – their first album in 13 years.
DevilDriver are currently touring the US and will return to the UK in August as support for Ministry.
