Modern-day Groovy Devil Mix

Gone are the days of the devil being portrayed as a winged creature with no people skills. No one can deny that the handsome devil Gavin Rossdale played in Constantine upped the image a couple of notches. Al Pacino's irresistably charming representation of Mephisto in The Devil's Advocate solidified Satan's newfound iconic status even more.

The following playlist contain songs that embody the laid-back but imposing vibe of the modern demon.

Faith no More - Evidence Mike Patton's voice is what the devil would sound like if he was on downers. I never thought a song can sound so loose and tight at the same time. Incubus - Deep Inside Similarly toned vocals, with less suave but a whole lot more intensity. Devastations - Sex and Mayhem If for some strange reason you wonder what Johnny Cash would sound like if someone had slipped a date rape drug in his drink, look no further. Lovage - Anger Management The devil Mike Patton is back and has mistook Johnny Cash's drink for his own. Lovage - Stroker Ace Listen to this song with a toothpick between your teeth to truly know what it is to be  pimpin'. Gone - David Holmes This song is the perfect soundtrack when traversing through a dangerous dark alley looking for the next victim (in other words, a dimly lit hallway en route to the fridge).  Six Underground - Sneaker Pimps  Curiously, my descriptions always end up substance-related. To prevent further self-incrimination, I will refrain from saying anything about this speedball of a song.  Isaac Hayes- Walk on By, from the album Hot Buttered Soul is what should be the entrance song of only the most debonaire of fiends. Raspy. John Lee Hooker -The Healer  Bad men don't let feminine emotions, such as love, into their choice of songs. Santana's passionate guitar-playing on this track is a less obvious alternative. Even raspier. John Campbell - Down in the Hole If this playlist was arranged by the amount of evil in the songs, nothing can come after this. Raspiest.

Your turn.
