"Devils" is more of a rock song than previous Say Hi tracks, so it makes sense that Say Hi's Eric Elbogen would chose a classic rock 'n' roll/blues myth -- selling your soul to the devil -- as the storyline for its video. It also plays into the song's lyrics, where Elbogen struggles against inescapable anger and bitterness. But both the song and its video are a lot more lighthearted than that description sounds -- notice how Elbogen tries not to laugh even as he's falling into the fiery pits of hell. The video was directed by Carlos Lopez.
