1. Clouds Over California

   

   In my humble opinion, there should be a tie for first among most of these songs, except for Bound by the Moon.

   This is DevilDriver in a nutshell. Heavy, in your face. Dez and the boys excel on this one.

2. End of the Line

   

   Definitely my favorite song from DevilDriver. It is their opening song for live shows, which is smart because the beginning is very silent and then slowly goes towards heavy metal, and BAM, there you go, you have an awesome pit!

   Clouds Over California is a bit overrated in my opinion. Definitely the best intro of any DevilDriver song.

   Definitely the best song played live!

3. Daybreak

   

4. I've Been Sober

   

   Wow! I recommend this song to all! Everything about this song is great. Melodic Heavy Metal at its very best. The intro and outro are insane! Not their heaviest stuff, but it's my favorite tune by DevilDriver. Teach Me to Whisper and Knee Deep should be a lot higher on the list as well!

   I don't think I've ever heard a more beautiful outro in my life. If anyone has an outro they think is better, I'd love to hear it.

5. Hold Back the Day

   

   Beast chorus. Enjoy the citation. This should be top 5, maybe top 3.

6. Grinf***ed

   

7. Horn of Betrayal

   

8. Pray for Villains

   

9. Head On to Heartache (Let Them Rot)

   

10. I Could Care Less

    

    It's a really cool track. It also sounds like there's a hint of clean singing at the very beginning, which I think is the only song that DD has done with clean vocals.

    Sick! Total apathy, listen to this...

    Heard this for the first time on the radio last night, fell in love with DevilDriver instantly.

    This song is so excellent, especially in the drums! John Boecklin is an amazing drummer!

    New album is gonna be AMAZING! This song sounds incredible!

14. For What It's Worth

    

15. Shudder

    

16. The Appetite

    

    This one will definitely take over Clouds Over California or go second place. You should listen to it!

    Such an awesome song, the music video is basically like a day in my life and the life of my friends.

17. Cry for Me Sky

    

18. Ruthless

    

19. Swinging the Dead

    

20. Sail

    

    Cool cover song. I like this version better than the original.

    The breakdown at 2:22 is cool. DevilDriver is hands down my favorite band!

22. Back With a Vengance

    

23. Bitter Pill

    

24. I Dreamed I Died

    

    A very original song, it has such a unique rhythm and should be in the top 10 for sure!

25. Knee Deep

    

26. The Fury of Our Maker's Hand

    

27. Not All Who Wander are Lost
