Deville

There are two bands named Deville. One is Swedish stoner act that can be found at http://www.deville.nu and one is Canadian punk band described here: The story dates back to the high school years of Rich (vocals), and brothers Rob (drums) and Sean (guitar). The three friends spent all their spare time playing their favorite metal cover songs together in their parent’s basements. Inevitably though, that would only last for a short time.
