Letlive release If I’m The Devil documentary

Letlive

Letlive have released an online documentary focusing on the background of their latest album If I’m The Devil.

The 30-minute film features interviews with all band members and includes live footage, while frontman Jason Aalon Butler goes into depth about the title of the record of the same name and the inspiration behind it.

He says: “Being the person that writes lyrics for this band, I went through a lot of figuring out who I am in the band and learning that at times throughout my life, I may have been considered the opposite of what I believed I was. One way of representing that would be the devil.

“My question to myself would always be, ‘If I’m this negative thing, what are all these things I’m fighting against?”

Butler previously revealed he’d taken a more deliberate approach to songwriting on the follow-up to 2013’s The Blackest Beautiful.

Letlive are currently on tour across the US.
