Devil's Dance may refer to:
Reload is the seventh studio album by American heavy metal band Metallica, released on November 18, 1997 by Elektra Records. The album is a follow-up to Load, released the previous year, and Metallica's last studio album to feature longtime bassist Jason Newsted. Reload debuted at number one on the Billboard 200, selling 436,000 copies in its first week. It was certified 4× platinum by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA) for shipping four million copies in the United States.
Reload was recorded at The Plant, a wood-panelled studio in Sausalito, California. The ringmaster for the session was Bob Rock, who produced Metallica's previous two albums. The album artwork displays a photo by Andres Serrano. The original idea was to release Load and Reload as a double album. However, with problems recording so many songs at one time, the band decided that half of the songs were to be released and the band would continue to work on the remaining songs and release them the following year. Speaking about the recording sessions in an interview for Guitar World, guitarist Kirk Hammett stated that "We were gonna do them both as a double album, but we didn't want to spend that long in the studio. Also, if we did a double album, it would have been a lot more material for people to digest, and some of it might have gotten lost in the shuffle." It was the final Metallica studio album to feature bassist Jason Newsted, though it was not his last release with the band.

Come out, come out, wherever you are
I'll be your king now people-
You can call me God
You better bow down cuz I made you all that you are
I beat the devil down myself-
I'm laying down the law
Yeah, I'm dropping plagues from Egypt to Abu Ghraib
Respect is what you'll pay
Now follow me or get out the way
And pray for a quick death cuz I will leave nothing left
Motherfucking right - Just serve, worship, and watch your step
You try buying me out - And I will make you pay
They try smoking me out - And I'll burn 'em away
You cast a shadow of doubt - And I'll bring the pain
