Since the beginning of the years 2000, DEVIL TO PAY has gone out three albums studio (Thirty Pieces Of Silver in 2003, Cash Is King in 2006, Heavily Even After in 2009) and a DVD (48 Minutes in 2009), without for as much to meet an echo to the height of his perseverance. For DEVIL TO PAY is part of these soutiers of the Heavy Metal that seems never to resign itself, never to leave to fall.

And they were justified in to insist, the devils, for Fate Is Your Muse reveals themselves to be an album roboratif, solid, hitting, in the absence of to be innovative. One is first hit by the thickness of the sound, putting in value a rhythmic extremely soldered section, in constant and very effective support the riffs. The guitars possess an intelligence, dividing up their rhythmic interventions between riffs very harsh and twin parties mélodiques. Add thereto a perfectly mastered energy and you will obtain a density and a tangible intensities throughout the album.

That says, DEVIL TO PAY is not satisfied to push the furnishings, concerned to write true compositions, with structures limpides, expressive lines of song and modulated, well turned melodies. The here proposed mixture is situated fact to the crossing of several universes. Building on own traditional foundations to the Heavy Metal to the BLACK SABBATH, DEVIL TO PAY brushes the Stoner Rock, borrows from the Sludge, indeed to SOUNDGARDEN (period Badmotorfinger), while privileging a certain concision.Cerise on the cake, the group succeeds in install moods disrupt while playing on variations of tempo and on contrasts: of course classical but always so effective recipe.

A worthy group of respect and a solid album: that to ask of more?
