Liverpool Sound and Vision Rating 9/10

When the Devil Came Calling is when perhaps you should have paid more attention. For some the celestial siren plea is not enough to bring on the sweat of inspiration, it takes a deeper growl in which to stir the human body to find the place where their perception of artistry is at its most beautiful, scintillating and achingly sublime. For Robert Johnson it was the apparent meeting on a crossroads, for many an artist it is perhaps a reflection of what the muse can lead them to in terms of obsession, of the darker side of their personality; sometimes we need to listen to the voice that offers a moment of explosive excellence in return for a little piece of our soul.
