With JRX as the drummer and songwriter of Superman Is Dead (SID), gave this band the impression of a ‘halfhearted band’ and comfortable with the status of a cover version band.
In 2002, JRX realized that he had wrote many songs which were not the character of SID songs but he could use them as songs of Culture On Fire, which was moodier than SID. He, then decided to be more serious in running his second band. After a few personnel changes and renamed the band “Devildice”, JRX and his friends released their first album ‘In The Arms Of The Angels’ in 2004. This album was produced independently with their own fund and label.
Now with the formation of JRX (vocal/guitar), Kuzz (bass), Cash (guitar), T.R (drum), and Mr.F (trumpet), Devildice has performed in variety of music festivals, charity concerts, skate, surf, tattoos, and bike competitions at stadiums, beach, courts, bars, clubs in Bali.
Devildice has also been involved in few environment campaign projects, compilation album, skate videos, surf videos and many more.
In making music and arts, Devildice is influenced by old gangster film, kustom kulture, and the exotism of tropical punk.

Berdiri tahun 1997 ditengah keramaian dosa dan peristiwa di Kuta [Bali], Devildice yang dibentuk oleh JRX [gitar/vokal] dan Kuzz [bass] awalnya memakai nama Culture On Fire dan memilih menjadi band cover version Social Distortion, band rock n roll punk idola mereka. Dibantu oleh beberapa kawan yang mengisi posisi drum dan gitar, Culture On Fire rajin meramaikan acara-acara musik yang bersifat underground di Bali.
Kesibukan JRX yang juga drummer/penulis lagu di Superman Is Dead [SID] membuat Culture On Fire makin terproyeksi menjadi band yang 'agak kurang serius' dalam berkarir dan nyaman dengan status band cover version.
Tahun 2002, Jerinx menyadari ia punya banyak stok lagu yang tidak masuk dalam karakter SID namun bisa ia masukkan ke dalam karakter Culture On Fire yang lebih moody. Ia pun memutuskan untuk lebih serius lagi menjalani proyek band keduanya ini. Setelah mengalami bongkar pasang personel dan perubahan nama menjadi Devildice, JRX dan kawan kawan akhirnya merilis mini album perdana Devildice 'In The Arms Of The Angels' tahun 2004 dengan biaya dan label sendiri.
Hingga kini Devildice yang diperkuat JRX, Kuzz, Cash [gitar], T.R [drum] dan Mr.F [trumpet] telah bermain di ratusan festival musik, acara amal, skate, surf, tattoos dan motor di stadion, pantai, lapangan, bar/club di Bali.
Devildice juga terlibat dalam beberapa proyek kampanye lingkungan, album kompilasi, skate video, surf video dan lain lain.
Dalam berkesenian, Devildice banyak dipengaruhi film-film gangster jaman dulu, kustom kulture dan eksotisme khas punk tropikal.

True
Devildice Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Flooded with hope and courage deep into the heart
Will you, coming down with me
And walk the hardest line
Memories, the laughs and the tears
It's our life and everything we built
And right here, I wanted you to stop
Do you really want to walk this way
When your dreams left you cried all alone
Have you asked to a painted walls
Looking back, when days went so fast
Had my life on the edge of a rock n roll band
To found everything but love
And was too young to die
Those hearts that you stole and those rules that you broke
When it comes to you now, put a smile on your dark teary eyes
Hold up, here the questions go
To see your self today
Do you really want to walk this way
When your dreams left you cried all alone
Have you asked to a painted walls
I walked the hardest line
And one day when you wake up and cry
Next to you was a face of goodbye
Have you asked to a painted walls
When you've got to be strong
Be as strong as you can just don't lie
And when you need to cry
There'll be someone with you till you die
Gotta stay who you are
Till the die you die just be true
And when you've got to be strong
Be as strong as you can just don't lie...
And one day when you wake up and cry
Next to you was a face of goodbye
Have you asked to a painted walls
Yeah...!
When you've got to be strong
Be as strong as you can just don't lie
And when you need to cry
There'll be someone with you till you die
Gotta stay who you are
Till the die you die just be true
When you've got to be strong
Be as strong as you can just don't lie...
Be... strong...
Don't lie...
Be... strong...
Who you are...
Be... strong...
Don't lie...
Be... strong...
Don't lie...
Be... strong...
Who you are...
Be... strong...
Don't lie...

The song "True" by Devildice reflects on the challenges and choices that one faces in life. The lyrics talk about how the struggles one faces can shape their character and how it's important to stay true to oneself. The opening lines, "Rain it falls straight into your eyes, flooded with hope and courage deep into the heart" suggest that the challenges one faces can be overwhelming, but it's important to stay hopeful and courageous.
The chorus of the song asks the listener to reflect on their choices and actions, "Do you really want to walk this way when your dreams left you cried all alone? Have you asked to painted walls?" It's a call to be honest with oneself and to not be afraid to seek help in times of need. The part of the lyrics that says, "When you've got to be strong, Be as strong as you can just don't lie, And when you need to cry, There'll be someone with you till you die" suggests that it's important to be strong but also to allow oneself to be vulnerable and rely on the support of others.
Overall, "True" is a powerful and uplifting song that encourages listeners to stay true to themselves and persevere through life's challenges. It's a reminder that it's okay to be vulnerable and it's important to seek help when needed.
Line by Line Meaning
Rain it falls straight into your eyes
You're faced with challenges that test your strength and willpower
Flooded with hope and courage deep into the heart
Despite the challenges, you have hope and courage deep inside you
Will you, coming down with me
Will you face these challenges with me?
And walk the hardest line
And take the toughest path to overcome these challenges.
Memories, the laughs and the tears
Your life is full of memories, both joyful and sorrowful
It's our life and everything we built
These memories are what make up our lives and who we are
And right here, I wanted you to stop
Take a moment to reflect on your life
To see yourself today
See who you are today and how you've grown
Do you really want to walk this way
Are you sure you want to continue down this path?
When your dreams left you cried all alone
When your dreams have brought you pain and disappointment
Have you asked to a painted walls
Have you talked to yourself and sought guidance from within?
Looking back, when days went so fast
Reflecting on the past when time seems to have flown by quickly
Had my life on the edge of a rock n roll band
Living life on the edge, embracing risk, excitement, and unpredictability
To found everything but love
Even though you were successful in other ways, you still lacked love
And was too young to die
You were too young to give up on love and life
Those hearts that you stole and those rules that you broke
Recalling past transgressions and negative behavior
When it comes to you now, put a smile on your dark teary eyes
Despite past mistakes, embrace happiness and positivity
Hold up, here the questions go
Take a pause, the questions arise
To see your self today
Take a moment to see yourself today and where you want to go
And one day when you wake up and cry
There will come a day when you'll be overwhelmed with emotions
Next to you was a face of goodbye
And next to you, someone you love will be leaving
When you've got to be strong
When you need to be brave and resilient
Be as strong as you can just don't lie
Be strong but don't pretend to be something you're not
And when you need to cry
When you need to let out emotions
There'll be someone with you till you die
Someone will always be by your side
Gotta stay who you are
Stay true to yourself
Till the die you die just be true
Until your last breath, be true to yourself
And when you've got to be strong
And when you need to be brave
Be as strong as you can just don't lie...
Be as strong as you can while staying true to yourself
Be... strong...
Be strong and courageous
Don't lie...
Don't deceive others or yourself
Who you are...
Embrace who you truly are
