Stay tuned for SATAN MADE ME DO IT’s debut on Rádio Quântica, a new platform that aims to be a communal haven for underground Portuguese artists and activists. — http://www.radioquantica.com/ —
This will be a 2 HOUR LONG SHOW, every MONTH! Instead of the usual show notes on our blog, we’ll be talking you through the playlist. That means putting up with our ugly voices – sorry! At least you don’t have to look at us… yet.

SATAN MADE ME DO IT’s upcoming live event in MusicBox, Lisbon, with our guests Bad Guys, is quickly approaching. We’re fucking psyched. It has all the ingredients that a killer show needs. Take the official poster for instance: is that punk or is that punk? What, is pink and baby blue too much for you to handle? That’s the beautiful part. RUDOLFO took those colors and turned them on their heads to make all the assholes runaway. True fans will get it of course. And those are the ones we care about.

November 20th, MusicBox
Concert + DJ set: 8 euros

SATAN MADE ME DO IT has very special news to share with all its listeners: SATAN MADE ME DO IT live events.
That’s right! We’ve had the opportunity to spin records live in the past. This is different. This is the next step in the evolution of SATAN MADE ME DO IT.
Episode 41 – Familly Happiness (right click to download)
For quite some time now we haven’t released a really mean episode through and through. Maybe it has to do with the summer. The increasing daylight hours made us weak, perhaps. We’re ending it NOW. This episode will make afraid of your own shadow from start to finish. It’s so thick that Leatherface’s chainsaw wouldn’t be able to cut it through. It’s so loud you’ll want to listen to Delibes afterwards. This is where we separate the men from the boys and send away all the poseurs who THINK they like SATAN MADE ME DO IT. No more happy thoughts, no more warmth inside, no more singing along or wandering about. This one comes from our cold, dead hands.

Episode 40 – Waltz for Crows (right click to download)
There sure ain’t a lot of metal this time around, but if you’re still here you don’t really care. And we salute you for that.
40 episodes. It has been 40 episodes. Should we expect some sort of midlife crisis? All we know is that we ain’t stopping anytime soon, so better get used to us sticking around. We are the vulture and the coyote. The crow. We’ll keep feeding even after others are gone.
Dance away.

Episode 39 – Drama Kings (right click to download)
We hope you like drama in your music, cause this is gonna move you to tears. Don’t be a wimp now! SATAN MADE ME DO IT didn’t just go soft on you; expect no tacky ballads, ever. You can write that down too.
What we attempted here was teaming up a bunch of very intense and dramatic heavy metal flavored tunes in order to uncover the feelings inside all you heartless bastards.
Every time you bang your head a kitty dies. Stop it, ok?

Episode 38 – Strength Is Nothing (right click to download)
We know we’ve just done it recently (see Episode 34 – Cross My Heart and Hope to Die), but we’re going for a slower tempo on this one. We just felt the need to, especially after three crazy days spinning records at VAGOS OPEN AIR festival. Hard as nails, those guys. They didn’t care at all for slower tracks or even faster NWOBHM songs. Those critters wanted to be fed on a strictly brutal diet consisting of thrash, death, black metal with just a dash of hardcore on top. Ahah, it was great fun and definitely we want to go back.
But hey, some people mistake speed for aggression and noise for violence. Not true. Music can be pretty vile and grim and dark and heavy when it’s cold, slow or distant too. It’s almost like the old argument: what are scarier, slow zombies, or fast zombies? Meh…
So press play and PLAY IT LOUD. And beware; it can get pretty emotional.

Episode 36 – Lay Down Your Arms (right click to download)
It’s funny, you know? There are plenty of non-metal people who admit listening to metal music. Now that’s just fine; such barriers have long been broken. We have written about this before. What’s interesting is not that these people listen to metal; it’s the metal they usually listen to. If you know a thing or two about music you’ll be very quick in confessing your love for the likes of Slayer, Napalm Death or Burzum. These three bands have some things in common: they all inspired genres other than metal and are generally archived under the “extreme metal” category.
Now ask those same people if they enjoy NWOBHM, Speed, Power, Glam – in general, the more traditional and “domesticated” metal genres – and see what happens (Maiden and Priest don’t count!). Even among head bangers it’s not infrequent to find people who have no love for these sounds.
If this episode doesn’t make you change your mind then you’ll continue leading a sad, sad existence. And we’ll show you no compassion. Good music has no boundaries.
NO DAWN IN LUCIFER’S LIGHT!

Episode 26 – Carnivorous Flowers (right click to download)
Our ears are still buzzing from two weeks ago. That’s noise for you. But we decided NOT to take the feet off the pedal. We just basically changed the guitar tone to something a little extra… fuzzy. There are actually a lot of things at play here, more prominently doom stuff, so you’ll find plenty to like if you been going to just some of the many psych fests being unleashed throughout the civilized world. So, not the Pagan Altar/Witchfinder General type of doom. This time we mingled with the slow pace, the thorny and the poisonous.
One other thing: it’s mostly newish stuff, meaning there is a good chance you’ll get in touch with fresh and exciting music to sink your teeth into.
Music never disappoints! Support SATAN MADE ME DO IT and come back for more exactly two weeks from now.

Episode 20 – Don’t Deliver Us From Evil (right click to download)
It all comes down to a matter of temperature, doesn’t it? In the last episode we ventured through a different kind of metal, colder and machinelike in nature. It was tremendous. But this time, as the leaves start dying and the rain pours outside, we feel the need to return to a warmer and more organic brand of metal, the kind of metal that makes you feel fuzzy inside. Or maybe it’s the rum talking. For that purpose, nothing better than going back to the roots. This one is mainly NWOBHM and early doom inspired.
So fall down to your knees and beg:
Our Father in hell,
Damned be your name.
Your kingdom come,
Your will be done,
On earth, as it is in hell.
And lead us into temptation,
And never deliver us from evil.
PRAY IT LOUD!
