Songs that feel like The Devil Rides Out (1968)
A stately, high-stakes battle between upper-class British aristocracy and blood-drinking cultists who summon ancient horrors into quiet country manhouses.
- Black Sabbath by Black Sabbath: It embodies the rainy, dread-filled atmosphere of impending doom and actual satanic summoning.
- Season of the Witch by Donovan: The hazy, hypnotic cadence mirrors the bewitching psychological hold Mocata has over his followers.
- The Devils Triangle by King Crimson: Its chaotic, orchestral dissonance mirrors the terrifying mental assaults inside the protective pentacle.
- Black Mass by Electric Wizard: It delivers the heavy, sludgy invocation of the dark lord and unholy rituals.
- Pyramid Song by Radiohead: Evokes a sense of descending into dark waters and ancient, inescapable supernatural judgment.
- Paint It, Black by The Rolling Stones: Its dramatic, driving beat matches the frantic ride against the forces of darkness.
- Angel of Death by Slayer: Provides the thunderous, terrifying arrival that concludes the ultimate battle against mortality.
