The Devils drop ‘Lonely For You Baby’ video, new album out in March

Prepare to be engulfed in the chaotic brilliance of THE DEVILS as they unleash their new studio album, “Devil’s Got It”, on March 14th via Go Down Records & Cleopatra Records. Hailing from the fiery heart of Naples, Italy, this dynamic duo, comprised of Gianni Blacula and Erika Switchblade, embodies the raw essence of Rock’n’Roll, a potent brew of sex, sin, and sonic savagery. Marking their 10th anniversary with a defiant spirit, THE DEVILS unleash an album that reflects a decade of relentless energy and electrifying live performances.

Although we’ve never really played blues or soul music, we’ve spent years exploring and pursuing these genres. We’ve delved into their roots and absorbed countless musical influences. As we celebrate our 10th anniversary, it feels fitting to create this record as a tribute to the music that has become our steadfast inspiration and something we can truly rely on.

That’s how the power duo introduces us to their new record, the sixth in a decade-long career primarily spent performing on stage. It’s a cover album recorded at the Auditorium Novecento, Naples, in October 2024, and mixed and mastered by Alain Johannes.

The first taste of “Devil’s Got It” comes in the form of the scorching single, “Lonely For You Baby”. Accompanying the track is a brand new music video directed by acclaimed filmmaker Rob Schmidt. 

Schmidt reveals the video’s inspiration:

David Lynch’s BLUE VELVET, specifically the ‘IN DREAMS/ROY ORBINSON’ sequence, was the specific aesthetic inspiration for our video. We even looked at stills from it on set. Now, a few days after the master’s death, I am realizing how much he has inspired our work with his dark retro style. Rest in peace good master, your voice echoes through time.
