Overall Meaning

The song "Devil is Fine" by Zeal & Ardor is a dark and haunting warning about the seductive power of the devil. The lyrics start with a warning to a "little one" that they should heed the warning because the devil is lurking and he is fine. The devil is portrayed as forgiving and promising many things, but the singer reminds us that we cannot do him any wrong or we will be going home to the flames.


The song talks about how nobody can show us the way or hold our hands, and that the devil is the only one who can lead us. The repetition of the phrase "devil is fine" and the insistent repetition of the chorus creates a hypnotic effect, which adds to the ominous feeling of the song. The use of the phrase "little one" in the lyrics adds to the feeling of vulnerability and innocence that the singer is trying to protect.


Overall, the song is a warning to be careful and not to be led astray by the seductive power of the devil. It is a reminder that we are responsible for our own choices and that it is up to us to find our way in life.

As an ethnically mixed metal head, the songs speaks to me. Growing up I had an immediate attention to metal music and as I got older and learned more about my African American heritage, I fell in love with Negro Spiritual. This bands sound is somehow the thing my ears have been begging for since the first time I heard SOAD.

Solomie Abebe

Hell yeah! I grew up on SOAD and was one of the only black ppl at their concert. This speaks life into me.

ZNC16

Right on. \m/

I'm also a mixed metalhead and love seeing representation in the music I love.
