"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.

I'll Be Your Ghost
The Devil's Blood Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Tie me to your whipping-post
I'll let you kill me
And I'll be your ghost
I'd walk over broken glass for you
I'd crawl over burning coals for you
I'd do all the things you'd have me do
I'd hang myself in iron chains for you
I'd whip myself with razor wire for you
If you'd only promise to kiss my wounds
I would gladly give my life to you
Oh, enough of this torment
I am praying on broken knees
Let this cup pass my lips, oh lord
I wish only to be with thee
The lyrics of The Devil's Blood's song "I'll Be Your Ghost" relate to a person's willingness to submit themselves to extreme pain, suffering, and even death in the name of love. The song is essentially about a person who is completely devoted to their lover, to the point of being willing to endure any physical or emotional torture that their beloved desires. The opening verses of the song describe the person's willingness to lay on a bed of nails and be tied to a whipping post, all in the name of love. The person is further willing to crawl over burning coals, walk over broken glass, and endure any torture that their lover may wish to inflict upon them.
The lyrics display a sense of blind devotion and love that is often seen as unhealthy and dangerous. The repeated phrase "I would gladly give my life for you" indicates that the person is willing to die for their lover, a sentiment that is typically associated with toxic relationships. However, the final verse of the song offers a glimpse of redemption, as the person prays to be with the lord and escape the torment they are feeling. This suggests that the person may be aware of their problematic behavior, but they are unable to escape the hold that their lover has over them.
Overall, the song raises questions about the nature of love and the extent to which a person should be willing to endure pain and suffering for the sake of their partner. It is a powerful and evocative piece of music that inspires strong emotions in listeners.
