Can 悪魔 mean something else other than devilish / demonic?


I am watching this video of a Japanese girl covering a rock song, and she uses
the word 悪魔 in an odd way (at least for me), I think it is being used as a
`の-adjective`.

1st sentence (<https://youtu.be/G--hl5yMBSo?t=7>):

> 悪魔の時間がやってきました。The devil's time has come. (?)

or maybe something like: `The time of truth has come`?

2nd (<https://youtu.be/G--hl5yMBSo?t=47>):

> 悪魔のチューニングをしていきたいと思います。- I would like to do this goddamn tuning.

At this point I feel like 悪魔 would mean something close to "damn" or "damned",
is it correct?




Instead of standard guitar tuning (from lowest string to highest, EADGBE), the
song she is playing ("Chop Suey," by System of a Down) uses a non-standard
tuning (CGCFAD). She is **referring to this non-standard tuning as 悪魔のチューニング,
or "the devil's tuning."**

So when she says

> 悪魔の時間がやってきました

it just means

> "It's time for [that song that uses] the devil ['s tuning]."

And when she says

> 悪魔のチューニングをしていきたいと思います

she's simply announcing that she's going to retune her guitar to put it into
this special tuning.

For what it's worth, in English the tuning she's using here is **not**
commonly called "the devil's tuning," but ["drop C
tuning."](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Drop_C_tuning) When the term "the
devil's tuning" is used in English (as
[here](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NMg7nnz_dvk) and
[here](http://es.gibson.com/News-Lifestyle/Features/en-us/robert-
johnson-0507.aspx)), it generally refers to a tuning that includes at least
one [tritone](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tritone), the so-called "devil's
interval."
