Those who follow Device and Disturbed frontman David Draiman know that the rocker is well-studied on his Jewish history. Now he's using his celebrity to help bring the story of holocaust survivor Leah Johnson to a wider audience.

It's been a little while, but Avenged Sevenfold are about to ramp up their activity. The band has scattered festival dates this summer, but they've just announced a full-scale 2013 European trek.

Disturbed singer David Draiman is currently finding success with his new band Device, whose single 'Vilify' recently topped the Active Rock chart. Meanwhile, Disturbed guitarist Dan Donegan and drummer Mike Wengren are taking off with their new outfit Fight or Flight, as bassist John Moyer continues to work with Adrenaline Mob.

At this weekend's Rock on the Range festival, Device's David Draiman brought up a special guest to sing 'Close My Eyes Forever.' He was joined by Maria Brink of In This Moment to sing the duet from Device's self-titled debut album (watch video above).

Happy Mother's Day 2013. It's a day for saluting the women who have brought children into the world, raised them and put them on the path to the life they have chosen. In some instances, that life is rock and roll and a number of top rockers are offering up Mother's Day wishes to their own mothers as well as the other mothers out there.

2013 turned out to be a memorable year for the Carolina Rebellion festival, but not in the way organizers had hoped. Expanding to two full days at a new venue (Charlotte Motor Speedway) with a high profile lineup had anticipation and expectations at a high level. Unfortunately, Mother Nature did not cooperate.

The circle of life is something that's definitely on the mind of Disturbed and Device frontman David Draiman these days. The vocalist experienced the highs and lows that come with both life events within the span of the past week.

Megadeth are bringing their 'Gigantour' festival trek back in 2013 and frontman Dave Mustaine confirmed that David Draiman's new band Device will be part of the run this year.

It was a big week to head online or to the record store if you were a hard rock fan, and Volbeat, Stone Sour and Device all saw positive results for their new records.

David Draiman has now taken the next step in establishing his new band, Device, as the group played their first-ever live performance Wednesday night in Mobile, Alabama.

As David Draiman prepares for the release of Device's first album next week, he's once again heading online to let fans know that his commitment to Disturbed remains intact while his passion and excitement for Device is equally as strong.

Device, featuring David Draiman from Disturbed, will release their self-titled debut album on Tuesday, April 9th but they're giving fans a chance to preview it before it comes out.
