The Devil’s Trade Release Mind-Altering Live Footage

A decade ago, Dávid György Makó started The Devil’s Trade as a solitary journey between him and his banjo. But once he started working on his latest album, his stark and doomy meditations on folk music spawned into something even more cavernous, something that sounded like the inner workings of a fully electrified band.

Since the release of Vidékek Vannak Idebenn, Makó and his band mates have toured across Europe with kindred spirits like Alcest. Watch them deliver a thunderous performance of the album’s epic title track at Budapest’s famously free-spirited Kolorádó Festival.

The Devil’s Trade also stopped by this year’s Hellfest to perform the album’s spine-tingling, bone-crushing lead single “Flashing Through the Lack of Light”. Later this week, the band will shake the stage at Hungary’s Campus Festival alongside their fellow countrymen Thy Catafalque.
