Devil's Road is an album by the American band the Walkabouts, released in 1996.[1][2] The first single was "The Light Will Stay On", which was a hit in many European countries; by 2003, the album had sold around 85,000 copies on the continent.[3][4][5] Devil's Road was regarded as an attempt at a more commercial album in comparison to the Walkabouts' previous work.[6][7] The album was reissued in 2014, with a second disc of live songs and alternate takes.[8]
Produced by Victor Van Vugt, the album was recorded in Cologne, Germany.[9][10] Mark Nichols arranged the string parts, which were performed by the Warsaw National Philharmonic Orchestra.[11][12] The songs were written by Chris Eckman and sung by Eckman and Carla Torgerson.[13][11]
