All Little Devils
Dismal Euphony Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Rise and shine in the night
My pride salutes me, until I fall
The wicked children praise my name,
then writes it in the morning sky
All litlle devils are dancing in ecstacy
Inspired by the taste of horror
Proud to be insane forever
Proud to be insane
Let out the killer in me
Raise your hands above your head
Close your eyes and you'll be dead
Broken dreams of insanity
Anger will be my victory
Inspired by the taste of horror
Proud to be insane forever




Proud to be insane
Let out the killer in me!

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Dismal Euphony's "All Little Devils" speak to the dark, twisted desires that lie within all of us. The singer revels in their own wickedness, seeing it as a source of pride and inspiration. The first few lines, "Rise and shine in the night / My pride salutes me, until I fall," suggest a sense of power and confidence that comes from doing something taboo or forbidden. The next line, "The wicked children praise my name, / then writes it in the morning sky," further emphasizes the idea that the singer's actions are celebrated by those who share their twisted inclinations.


The chorus of the song, "All little devils are dancing in ecstacy / Inspired by the taste of horror / Proud to be insane forever / Proud to be insane / Let out the killer in me," reinforces the idea that the singer sees their dark desires as a badge of honor. The imagery of the "little devils" dancing in ecstasy suggests a sort of macabre celebration of the singer's actions. The line "let out the killer in me" is particularly powerful, indicating that the singer is not just content with their dark impulses, but actively seeks to act on them.


The second verse, "Raise your hands above your head / Close your eyes and you'll be dead / Broken dreams of insanity / Anger will be my victory," continues to reinforce the sense of power and control that the singer feels in their wickedness. The line "broken dreams of insanity" suggests that the singer may have struggled with mental illness or societal norms that have forced them to repress their desires in the past. However, now they see these dark impulses as a strength rather than a weakness, and are willing to embrace them fully.


Overall, the lyrics of "All Little Devils" are a powerful exploration of the darker aspects of human nature. They speak to the idea that we all have twisted desires and impulses lurking within us, and that it is up to us whether we choose to suppress or embrace them.

@Hey Ho I decided to just go ahead and give you album recommendations since metal bands seldomly have immaculate discographies, and it could be a tedious process to find the diamonds in the rough. These are some of my favorite gothic black metal albums, though in most cases it will be quite literal in what it sounds like. As you'll come to see, it very rarely gets close to the Dismal Euphony sound of All Little Devils. Maybe more akin to the early Dismal Euphony of Soria Moria and Autumn Leaves. The thing that made Dismal Euphony so interesting as a band was their experimentation. By the end with Python Zero, you feel an almost avant-garde spirit in them. Who knows where they could have taken their style next if they hadn't disbanded. I hope you can get some enjoyment of these nonetheless. Top tier musicianship. (Also, I didn't add Cradle of Filth because they are really well known and I'm sure you probably already know of them. Their music is a no brainer for gothic black metal.)

Ever since I was a young boy, I had wanted to find a sound like theirs again. I've listened to so much gothic black metal, but it just doesn't give me Dismal Euphony vibes. They truly tapped into something special.

Hey Ho

Hello, can you give me some of your favorite gothic black metal bands please? I am curious and I will surely discover ;)
