Having released more than 25 albums, Devin has been given the title “The Hardest Working Person in Metal.” Also a total nerd, Devin’s concerts often...

It took less time to do this than I thought, so I may wait a day before starting Infinity, but if you're bored...heres another rambling slab of...well..me.
