DevilDriver have debuted their new track “Wishing” below. The song finds frontman Dez Fafara indulging in clean vocals for the first time with the band. The clean parts were inspired by Sisters Of Mercy and Bauhaus with Fafara penning the cut about the possibility of losing his wife Anahstasia Fafara, who was diagnosed with skin cancer last year and given an all clear after undergoing surgery. Fafara recently told American Songwriter of the track:
“[It] explores what it would be like without my wife-we’ve been together a long time, raised three kids, she’s my manager- and when I finished writing the song, we found out she had cancer so I must’ve had some premonition of what was going on, so this is the demon of loneliness.”
