”The Mortal Prophets’ ‘Me and the Devil’ is a nightmarish ride. Anyone having trouble getting to, or staying, asleep should proceed with caution when playing The Mortal Prophets’ debut album around bedtime. The demonic intentions implied by the album’s name and defined by John Beckmann’s unorthodox approach coils each selection in menacing directions, bringing fresh, often frightening twists to these standards. Be aware of when you engulf yourself in these riveting, uncompromising performances. They are not for the squeamish” - American Songwriter
