Satan's history is storied, their albums and incendiary live shows, iconic. The Newcastle, England-bred lineup may quip that their career has been "44 years of prolonged mayhem with a 20-year lunch break" - forming in 1980, eventually pausing before reuniting in 2011 - but circa 2024 finds the band thriving, writing, recording, and touring at the top of their game. Proof positive is their seventh studio album, and third for Metal Blade, 'Songs in Crimson'.
