about

A demon summoning gone horribly right. Lick your lips and embrace your inner beast with this banger of a track - the story of a poor St. Petersburg occultist who gets considerably more than he hoped for when he tries to call forth the four major female “demons” - Lilith, Morrigan, Naamah, and Morana.

We had a lot of fun with this one. In what is becoming a tradition of catchy, sing-along, often gothrock tracks on Red Cain albums (think “Juliet” and “Hiraeth”), “Demons” dials it all to 11, operating on true gothrock territory of bands such as Lord of the Lost, 69 Eyes, and Lacrimas Profundere, layering brazen up-front guitar riffs with a groovy electronic backing and pulsing bassline - the foundation to the age-old baritone-voiced lurid tale of a man looking to the dark side for power - and finding a wild ride. We think this track is going to be a live hit as well, whenever that comes - and its current success means that the door to a vampire disco gothic chapel is wide open in future Red Cain material.

Best consumed ice-cold, on moonlit night drives, in eldritch, forgotten places - with bloody abandon. Feast, friends!

lyrics

They count your steps
And the heartbeats
Are sweeter than Sumerian wine

Red blood
That you gave them
They want to be with you all the time

Experimentation over my soul
I will be
Your control
It’s deliverance and witchcraft in one
In one
One and all

Demons!
You’re mine now

Lilith
Set the scene
Morrigan - phantom queen
Naamah - Say my name
Morana
Join our wicked game

Your eyes are bullet holes
And lips turn to rust
Mannequins maniacal
You call to the lost

Naked, wearing various smiles
Kissed me on the lips and
Asked if they could stay a while

Skin, and oh so civil
Demons are the antidote to evil
(Dangerous yet so civil -
Demons are the antidote to evil)

Leather and lead
Yes, like that
Let the sun light you up
Like a cigarette

Leather and lead
Smoke and sweat
Bare your teeth
Yes, like that

Leather and lead
Yes, like that
Let the sun light you up
Like a cigarette

Leather and lead
Smoke and sweat
Come to me, demons
Just like that

All my demons
Say hello
So many sundowns I have seen
Through the shattered windows
Cast your night
My, oh my
How far we’ve come this time

Night in night, and one to seven
So close to God
And so damn far from Heaven
Night in night, one to seven
Turn the heavy metal up to eleven!

All my demons
Say hello
So many sundowns I have seen

Through the shattered windows
Cast your night
My, oh my

Press your wicked, wicked lips on mine!
