Devil in Disguise - History
Devil in Disguise was established in 1998. In the same year the band recorded a 7” entitled “rules of the fools” wich was released on Bad Dog Rec.
Although DiD got in the lucky position to be support-act for Dropkick Murphys, Dickies, Demented Are Go, The Meteors and punkrock legends The Misfits, the band broke up.
4 years later, 4 new songs have been recorded for a demotape and the band started to play shows again. The first gig took place in Hamburg/Logo with Mad Sin and Peter Pan Speedrock, followed by a festival with The Meteors, Mad Sin, Peter Pan Speedrock and many more (DiD played both shows under the name “The Rotten Few”).
In april 2004 DiD took place as support-band for sweden´s finest punkrock-export The Bones. Believing the reviews the band was given, it´s been a great succes.
In august 05 they started recording their first full-lengh-cd. It´s gonna be released in december 05 on Escobar-Records
