The Devils (IT)

THE DEVILS formed in Naples, Italy, in 2015. Their first two albums, Sin, You Sinners! (2016) and Iron Butt (2017), were produced by Jim Diamond (The White Stripes, The Sonics) and released by Voodoo Rhythm Records. Since 2016, they have played over 600 gigs across Europe, the UK and Canada. Gianni Blacula plays guitar and Erika Switchblade is on drums. The Devils embody the definitive sound of chaos; their style is primitive, steeped in sex, sin and rock “n” roll. They are wild, very loud and sexy. They chose their name in reference to Ken Russell's legendary film, The Devils (1971). Their third album, Beast Must Regret Nothing (2021), was produced by Alain Johannes (QOTSA, Them Crooked Vultures, Chris Cornell, PJ Harvey) and features Mark Lanegan on vocals on ‘Devil Whistle Don't Sing’. Their next studio album, Let The World Burn Down, again features the multi-talented Johannes on mixing, mastering and guitar solos on ‘Horror and Desire’. This fourth studio album was released on Go Down Records in February 2024. The same label released The Devils' first live album in January 2023. In 2025, The Devils celebrated their 10th anniversary with a fifth album, Devil's Got It, a record of blues and soul covers mixed and mastered once again by Alain Johannes, and signed to the legendary American label Cleopatra Records
