With Devils Amongst Us All

After touring in support of their previous album All Hail the Dead (2004), Walls of Jericho spent four or five months writing With Devils Amongst Us All.{{Cite web |last=Gehring |first=Rolf |date=2006 |title=Walls of Jericho im Interview |url=http://www.helldriver-magazine.de/showInterview-ID-194.htm |url-status=live |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20240630125711/https://www.helldriver-magazine.de/showInterview-ID-194.htm |archive-date=June 30, 2024 |access-date=2024-06-30 |website=Helldriver Magazine |language=de}} Vocalist Candace Kucsulain said, that in contrast to All Hail the Dead, which was written and recorded within four months following their 2003 reformation, the band had more time to write, gathering ideas for the album for more than two years. Moreover, the band had a better understanding of each other and the kind of music they wanted to play.{{Cite web |last=Pessina |first=Luca |date=June 2, 2006 |title=Walls of Jericho - The Coming of Chaos |url=https://metalitalia.com/intervista/walls-of-jericho-the-coming-of-chaos/ |url-status=live |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20240630144454/https://metalitalia.com/intervista/walls-of-jericho-the-coming-of-chaos/ |archive-date=June 30, 2024 |access-date=2024-06-30 |website=Metal Italia |language=it-IT}} She also cited the addition of drummer Dustin Schoenhofer who joined in November 2004,{{Cite news |last=Stainbrook |first=Jon |date=September 7, 2006 |title=Ex-Toledoan makes a name in metalcore |url=https://www.toledoblade.com/a-e/music-theater-dance/2006/09/07/Ex-Toledoan-makes-a-name-in-metalcore/stories/200609070072 |url-status=live |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20240806153933/https://www.toledoblade.com/Music-Theater-Dance/2006/09/07/Ex-Toledoan-makes-a-name-in-metalcore.html |archive-date=2024-08-06 |access-date=2024-08-06 |work=The Blade |location=Toledo, Ohio |page=D6 |id={{ProQuest|380246079}} |quote=Schoenhofer got the call to join Walls of Jericho the day before Thanksgiving in 2004.}} as an influence on the band's new songs with his playing style.

With Devils Amongst Us All has been described as metalcore and thrash metal. The album showcases a fast, heavy and aggressive sound and features precise drumming, hardcore breakdowns, and an emphasis on melodic qualities heard most prominently on "The Haunted" and "No Saving Me". The intensity and speed of several tracks drew frequent comparisons to Slayer. Its lyrics are based on personal experiences and address various social issues, whilst bearing a more positive and direct approach compared to Walls of Jericho's previous albums.{{Cite web |last=Throne |first=Josh |date=September 26, 2006 |title=Interview Candace Kucsulain Walls of Jericho |url=http://www.fourteeng.net/wallsofjericho2006.html |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20080513222237/http://www.fourteeng.net/wallsofjericho2006.html |archive-date=2008-05-13 |access-date=2024-07-04 |website=fourteeng.net}} According to Kucsulain, the album is "very much about overcoming obstacles and becoming the person you find deep inside yourself"; she said its title "represents evil in everyday life".

"A Trigger Full of Promises" is about finding the loved one, and overcoming barriers to be with them. According to Decibel, "I Know Hollywood and You Ain't It" showcases crust-punk interpreted "as a dance-y, layered stomp-fest".{{Cite magazine |last=Fury |first=Jeanne |date=November 2006 |title=Walls of Jericho: With Devils Amongst Us All |url=http://www.decibelmagazine.com/reviews/nov2006/wallsofjericho.aspx |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20061020170545/http://www.decibelmagazine.com/reviews/nov2006/wallsofjericho.aspx |archive-date=2006-10-20 |access-date=2024-07-04 |magazine=Decibel |publisher=Red Flag Media, Inc. |issue=25}} "And Hope To Die" is about the suicides of people who were friends with Walls of Jericho. "The Haunted" begins with "eerie, melancholic chanting" and features a melodic chorus; its lyrics are about raising awareness of rape.{{Cite news |last=Czerwinski |first=Christian |date=October 4, 2006 |title=Music: Walls of Jericho |work=Lansing State Journal |page=T7 |id={{ProQuest|439067219}}}} Kucsulain found the song "weird" due to its catchiness, but believed that "if you want people to listen to the message, you have to sugarcoat the package". "No Saving Me" is a power ballad, similar to earlier Walls of Jericho songs "Angel" and "To Be Continued...", about feeling "totally alienated from the real world" on tour.{{refn|{{underline|"No Saving Me"}}

}}With Devils Amongst Us All received generally positive reviews from critics. Con Hongos of Alternative Press believed the album showed Walls of Jericho had reached "the height of their powers [...], and are completely worthy of the world's attention." Jeanne Fury of Decibel considered it the band's "most robust album to date". Kerrang! felt the album represented "brutal hardcore the way it's meant to be" whilst comparing Kucsulain's "authoritative" vocals favorably to Jamey Jasta of Hatebreed. Ox-Fanzine{{'s}} Tobias Ernst and laut.de's Michael Edele both considered the album superior to All Hail the Dead, with the former praising it as "more well-rounded and the consistently high level" and the latter highlighting Kucsulain's improved delivery. Punk Planet reviewer Chay Lawrence was less favorable, praising the album's production and performances but considering its songwriting formularic.{{Cite magazine |last=Lawrence |first=Chay |date=May–June 2007 |title=Music |url=https://archive.org/details/punk_planet_79/page/106/mode/2up?q=%22walls+of+jericho%22+%22devils+amongst+us+all%22 |magazine=Punk Planet |page=107 |via=Internet Archive |issue=79}} Though acknowledging that the album was "not groundbreaking", Adrien Begrand of PopMatters felt that its overall "convincing, sincere approach" made it "likeable enough to warrant an enthusiastic recommendation over the usual crop of cookie-cutter [metal] bands".

The song "No Saving Me", according to AllSchools, "seemed to be a bit controversial" among music reviewers.{{Cite web |last=Janina |date=February 1, 2007 |title=Interview mit Walls of Jericho |url=https://www.allschools.de/article/show/Interview_mit_Walls_of_Jericho_34006 |access-date=2024-07-03 |website=Allschools |language=de |archive-date=July 4, 2024 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20240704221349/https://www.allschools.de/article/show/Interview_mit_Walls_of_Jericho_34006 |url-status=live }} Alternative Press and Kerrang! called the song the album's only bad track; the latter felt its inclusion was "superfluous" when considering the "impressive carnage surrounding it". Mike Kemp of Rock Sound similarly found the song "so far out of character that it sticks out like a penguin in the Sahara." Raziq Rauf of Drowned in Sound was more favorable, stating that it helped break up Kucsulain's "relentless and slightly tiresome [vocal] cacophony" and suggested that it may "be a taster of much more melodic things to come." Begrand praised Kucsulain's range on the song as well as its genuinity, and hoped that Walls of Jericho would "explore this territory more in the future, and not let this song be just a one-off". In a 2007 interview with AllSchools, Kucsulain stated that Walls of Jericho were not "afraid of the controversy ["No Saving Me"] might cause" and told reviewers who did not understand the song to listen to the band's previous two albums, featuring other songs with Kucsulain's singing performances.
