The world last heard from DEVIL’S TRAIN with the release of their sophomore album II back in 2015. Since then, the German heavy Blues rockers have shuffled the deck and regrouped for the release of their third studio album Ashes & Bones on June 24, 2022.
The 2022 version of DEVIL’S TRAIN features frontman and founder R.D. Liapakis (MYSTIC PROPHECY), guitarist Dan Baune (MONUMENT), basisist Jens Becker (GRAVE DIGGER), and drummer Jörg Michael (Ex-AXEL RUDI PELL). I had the chance to speak with Dan Baune ahead of the album’s release.

-Discussion of Ashes & Bones album
-Restructuring the band
-Songwriting process
