Following a tour of Latin America, the band has spent its summer as one of the direct support acts traveling the US with the all-star Rockstar

On returning to the UK vocalist Mike Hranica commented, "We have set our sights on the upcoming UK tour with
August Burns Red and Whitechapel, and the band is excited to be coming back across the Atlantic for more shows. We recently finished the amazing Mayhem Tour with
Slipknot and Slayer, and now find ourselves ready to continue pushing 'DEAD THRONE' and introduce our new live CD/DVD, 'DEAD&ALIVE', to our UK fans."
"DEAD THRONE" made a spectacular chart debut upon its
September 2011 release, entering Billboard's "Top Independent Albums" ranking at #1 while also hitting the top 10 on the overall Billboard 200. The album - The Devil Wears Prada's fourth full-length release - received universal critical applause, with Kerrang! hailing its "dramatic dynamic shifts and a defter blend of melody and muscle, making this by far the best album the Ohio outfit have yet produced." Rock Sound called it "accomplished, deft and unbelievably powerful from start to finish" and in it's 8/10 review Metal Hammer called it "stunning".
