Speedfreak to release album “Doomsday Devices” on April 15th

“Doomsday Devices” was one of the last songs written for the Fast Lane Livin’ album. It’s a song about living in the moment and the temptations people all deal with every single day. 

Speedfreak says, "Even though you know you might make some bad decisions along the way, you only live once. You’re not getting any younger so go for it! It’s about living every day like it could be your last with no regrets. It’s the age old saying that it’s better to regret something you HAVE done than something you HAVEN’T."

The music video for “Doomsday Devices,” directed by Zane Rerek, made the rounds on the film festival circuit and  won the award for Best Metal Music Video at the Audio Shoot International Musician Video & Film Festival in Wexford, Ireland as well as being selected at over a dozen other fests including an official nomination at Cannes Shorts.

Chicago Metal quartet Speedfreak is an institution in the city’s hard rock and metal scene. With a sound that ranges from combative thrash riffs to boozy and bluesy sludge grooves, Speedfreak promises to be the cause of your next hangover. Lauded by Dee Snider as “having great songs” and “f*cking fearless”, the Chicago four-piece has a resume to match their intensity, having played at top notch venues such as Metro, Double Door, Reggies, Chop Shop and The Forge and opened for acts like Helmet, Crowbar, Mothership, Texas Hippie Coalition, Raven, Kill Devil Hill, and Shadows Fall.
