Island/Def Jam Records, Full Devil Jacket enjoyed a successful, though short, career. They made one album and one EP, and toured with
Nickelback and
Creed. In 2000, while in Full Devil Jacket, Brown nearly died of a
heroin overdose but was able to recover through a
drug rehabilitation program. While recording the second Full Devil Jacket album he decided to leave the music industry. Several years later, he started Day of Fire, and signed to an imprint of Sony Music.
