Avatar are back with a new album. The Swedish metal bands will release their ninth album, "Dance Devil Dance," will hit stores on Feb. 17.

In addition, the guys have posted a graphic, Johan Carlèn-directed video for the title track. Watch it below.

“I woke up to the truth one day,” vocalist Johannes Eckerström said in a statement. “With my heart pounding, and a heavy breath, I knew for sure. I am Satan. The snake and forbidden fruit with a longing for knowledge, freedom and agency. My feet were moving. I thought I was running, but I was dancing. A celebration. Yes, I am the Devil, and I believe that one day you can be the Devil too. It is my hope and ambition that this song will help you find your way there. As such, it’s a celebration of love, lust and democracy.”
