The Devil You Know (Econoline Crush album)

The Devil You Know is an album by the industrial alternative rock band Econoline Crush. It was released in Canada in June 1997 by EMI,[2] and in the United States in March 1998 by Restless Records.[1] While they are still only popular in Canada for the most part, this album helped to increase Econoline Crush's exposure in the United States more than their previous album.

Touring and promotion edit

Econoline Crush spent a year on the road supporting the record. They performed with artists such as Green Day, Foo Fighters, The Tea Party, Alice Cooper, and Kiss.[3] When opening for Kiss in Edmonton during their 1997 reunion tour, the band were left devastated when the crowd of 18,000 started chanting "We want Kiss" only a few songs into their set.[3]

Appearances in other media edit

Remixes of "Sparkle and Shine", "Nowhere Now", and "Surefire" were featured in the PlayStation game Sled Storm. "All That You Are" was used in the pilot episode of Sci-Fi Channel's Being Human.

Reception edit

Greg Prato of AllMusic called The Devil You Know "their best album yet."[1] He commented that "It could very well prove to be their big U.S. breakthrough (they're already stars in Canada)"[1] and believed the music on the album was characterized by "buzzing guitars, frenetic drumming, vocals that alternate between sung and screamed, and subtle electronic experiments."[1]
