Devil Metal

Nunslaughter's 'Devil Metal' is a raw and unapologetic anthem that delves into the darker aspects of the human psyche and the power of metal music. The song opens with a declaration of a 'black heart' and an impending battle, setting a tone of defiance and rebellion. The lyrics suggest that the fight is not just physical but also a fight for the sound of metal, which is portrayed as a powerful and almost sacred force. This battle is fought in the darkness of the night, symbolizing the band's embrace of the darker side of life and music.

The chorus, with lines like 'Blasphemy and agony metal floods my veins' and 'A symphony of sickness metal is the way,' highlights the intense and almost spiritual connection the band feels with metal music. The use of words like 'blasphemy' and 'agony' suggests a rejection of conventional norms and an embrace of the taboo and the extreme. The term 'Devil Metal' itself is a bold proclamation of their identity and their allegiance to a genre that is often associated with rebellion and nonconformity.

The song also touches on themes of self-acceptance and defiance against societal expectations. The line 'You say you'll help me cause I'm fucking wild, I say that I am fine I am the Devil's Child' is a powerful statement of self-empowerment. It suggests that the protagonist is fully aware of their wild nature and is unapologetically embracing it. This defiance is a common theme in metal music, where artists often reject societal norms and expectations in favor of their own path. 'Devil Metal' is a celebration of this rebellious spirit and the power of metal music to provide a sense of identity and belonging for those who feel like outsiders.
