"We will serve you with what can best be described as a Satanic Ritual in which crowd participation becomes pivotal. You will wear our blood, you will taste our hunger, you will devour our spiritual release. Although far above you and unattainable for you in the current stages of your evolution, We, the acolytes of His immortal will, welcome you to join us in a night of violence, substance abuse, love and hate. We would just as gladly be a place of worship, a church if you will, for true believers as we would be a left hand exit point for those still on the side of the pure and holy. We would take your offering and redirect it back into The Source of Darkness. We would be your pathway to Chaos. Rejoice, the time of no time evermore is coming.
What can you expect musically?
Without saying too much, or saying nothing at all, you can expect a frenzy of rock n roll flavoured hard rock that speaks of times decades past, no modernisms, no trends, no high end sounds. Just Vintage rock music in the vein of Roky Erickson, Black Widow, Coven, Black Sabbath and a rich plethora of sixties and seventies underground psychedelic rock bands too numerous to mention. Although The Devil's Blood are inspired and fueled by their love for these bands they are not a tribute band in any way or form. Instead we offer new, original, fresh material to strengthen our live rituals and appease our Master's senses.
So even though The Devil's Blood play "old time music" they do it with the same creative and artistic drive as their inspirators."
On the 25th of January 2013 The Devil's Blood released a statement regarding the band's end:
"As of the 22nd of January 2013 The Devil's Blood has returned into nothingness.
All planned Rituals will be cancelled.
No interviews will be done.
Consummatum est.
-SL & F
The Devil's Blood - 2007 / 2013"

The Devil's Blood Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Twisted eyes as love unfolds
I am creeping towards my end
Through black mist I shall ascend
The time of no time evermore
The time of no time evermore
For evermore
Can you hear the drums a'drumming?
For evermore
Can you hear the Devil's faithful calling?
For evermore
Can you hear his death bell ring?
For evermore
The time of no time evermore
The time of no time evermore
Time of no time for evermore
The time of no time evermore
So now the grounds are wet with blood
And so my hands are wet with lust
Our loins explode with primordial heat
Rejoice as snakes coil amongst our feet
Slaves to the nature of the beast
Deathsexbizarre lycanthropy
Razor love and desires free
We are bound in fire, you and me
The time of no time evermore
The time of no time evermore
Time of no time for evermore
The time of no time evermore
The Devil's Blood's "Evermore" is a song that encompasses a lot of themes and heavy subject matters. The opening lines of "Raging fire, burning souls, twisted eyes as love unfolds" sets the tone for the rest of the song. It implies that something intense and almost primal is happening, and that it is related to love, which becomes more apparent later on. As the song progresses, we hear of someone who is "creeping towards" their end, which is something that they seem to welcome. They are doing so through "black mist," which can symbolize either death or some kind of dark transformation.
The chorus of the song repeats the phrase "the time of no time evermore," which can be interpreted in one of two ways. One is that it is a time that will never end, meaning that whatever the song is describing will be eternal. The other way to interpret it is that this is a time outside of time, a moment removed from the usual progression of life. The rest of the chorus talks about hearing angels, the drums, the Devil's faithful, and his death bell, all of which imply that there is some kind of supernatural force at play.
The second half of the song gets even more intense, with lyrics like "the grounds are wet with blood" and "our loins explode with primordial heat." This part of the song is heavily sexual and animalistic, with references to "razor love" and "deathsexbizarre lycanthropy." The idea of being "bound in fire" with someone else suggests both intense passion and potential destruction. The repetition of the "time of no time evermore" chorus reinforces the idea that this moment is beyond the usual progression of time and that this experience is something that will go on forever.
