The Devil is involved directly in rock and roll, whether it be grabbing a guitar himself, or giving a musician some form of supernatural assistance.
After all, if rock and roll is a message from Satan, then Satan should rock out harder than anyone else. Ties into the moral panic surrounding rock and roll when it first came on the scene — many self-proclaimed Moral Guardians criticized it as "the Devil's music."
Can cross over with the Evil Diva if the musician who sold their soul to the Devil then proceeds to use their music to lure their fans to do the same.
The trope name is a pun on the song "Rock Me, Amadeus!" by the late Falco, Asmodeus being a Talmudic demon king.
Subtrope to Rotten Rock & Roll. Compare Villain Song, Heavy Mithril. Not to be confused with (though not mutually exclusive to) the demon prince Asmodeus.
This is not about musicians worshiping Satan, being accused of such, or mentioning Satan in their music. This requires the devil to get directly involved with the music.

A Year at the Top is about a band which sold their souls to the son of the Devil for one year of superstardom. It didn't last long enough for anyone to find out what would have happened had the series been renewed for a second year.

CHiPs: In the Season 6 episode "Rock Devil Rock", a goth rock star named Moloch is threatened when he begins hearing messages that "Moloch must die" (and they progressively become more ominous, including "Moloch WILL die!"). Although the moral rage aspect is briefly addressed, Moloch's alter-ego — a twenty-year-old man named Mickey Northagen — and the officers realise the messages being subliminal and understood when Moloch's album is played backwards. Eventually, the cops and Northagen figure out that Moloch's morally corrupt, money-hungry record producer is planning to kill him during the filming of a Music Video so — as a result of what he figures will be a publicity stunt — he can make a huge profit with the sale of unheard of numbers of Moloch's goth rock album, and that the "Moloch must/will die" messages were created, backmasked and edited into the Moloch songs, so that teens can spend all their time listening to the songs and figuring out what it all means.

The Simpsons
In an episode of where Bart goes to Hell in a near-death experience, the Devil amicably advises him, upon leaving, to "lie, cheat, steal, and listen to heavy metal music!"
"Tales from the Public Domain": The "Odyssey" segment uses this for a punchline. Odysseus (Homer) learns that he and his crew must cross the river Styx. They get there and find the hordes of the undead writhing and rocking to (what else!) Styx's "Lady". Odysseus moans:

The Kids in the Hall: In one sketch, a garage band kid battles Satan in a duel of rockers. Whereas the Devil is able to use six arms to play a blistering solo that would leave any guitar hero in tears, the hero is nonetheless able to blow his mind simply by playing the opening riff of "Smoke on the Water". Even though Satan is the frontman of Evil, Bobby had something Satan didn't have — a Wah-Wah pedal!

Expanded on in the sequel, "The Devil Comes Back to Georgia". Features more modern Country Rock from Travis Tritt, and "narration" by the late, great Johnny Cash. Instead of it being clear the devil lost, the musical duel plays out the song with no resolution.

We Sold Our Souls is about a '90s metal band, Dürt Würk, whose frontman Terry Hunt sold his and his bandmates' souls to Satan for success, then launched a far more successful career with a new band called Koffin while leaving the rest of the band to rot. He continues to feed Black Mountain the souls of his fans in exchange for continued success. He has slowly come to realize that Being Evil Sucks, as he knows that he's going to Hell when he dies and that there will never be enough souls to satisfy Black Mountain.

Metalocalypse explored that concept: When Dethklok are forced to sell their souls to the Blues Devil for blues fame, they end up negotiating the contract so that he would only get a $5 gift card for Hot Topic (plus he would even have to give them part of his soul). He understandably does not take the deal. Later, they end up destroying his car during a performance (having summoned a tornado with their music). Of course, the supernatural being who is the most interested in the band's music (and the accompanying weirdness) may be significantly worse than the Devil...

In the sequence where the Lute Hero system was implemented in Dark Waters, you do end up visiting Hell at one point, where you meet a character who claims to be Satan's prepubescent daughter and who is the only divine figure who doesn't complain about how horrible your music is.

Exalted: Music is always being played in Malfeas, the Demon City, mostly as a matter of survival. Malfeas loves music and dance, both as participant and audience, to the point where it's the only thing that can calm his Unstoppable Rage, but it also has the benefit of warding away Adorjan, the Silent Wind, who kills everything she touches but is repelled by noise. Note, however, that Malfeas has very high standards, and anyone who performs poorly can expect to be crushed, incinerated, infected with a horrific illness, or trapped in horrific agony for a thousand years.

Call of Cthulhu:
In several editions, one of the scenarios included in the main book is about a prohibition-era New Orleans jazz musician who's been gifted a strange trumpet by (of course) Nyarlathotep. Said trumpet's music can bring back the dead as violent zombies.
In the adventure "The Evil Stars", the leader of a rock band turns out to be a worshipper of Hastur.
Delta Green has Charnel Dreams, the house band for NYC's Club Apocalypse. The band's lead singer/guitarist is a sorcerer, assassin, and worshiper of Nyarlathotep. The rest of the band either also worships dark gods or is willing to go along for the fame.

Squidbillies: "Mephistopheles Traveled Below to a Southern State Whose Motto is Wisdom, Justice and Moderation" features the Squid Devil teaching Rusty how to play guitar, and this version of Beelzebub can rock pretty hard. He plays a song called "Hoofprints", which features the following line: "As I ram your carcass through an impossibly small hole into a sea of flaming hot human feces, when you can't draw a breath, yet your lungs are filled with that same flaming hot human feces". Rusty and Early also gain incredible guitar playing abilities (Early plays so fast the strings turn white hot), at the cost of sucking the town into hell and both of them turning into horrific demons.

Subverted by an old Weekly World News article, which claimed that the Devil has switched to Gangsta Rap as his personal genre because he felt that rock music nowadays was for pussies.

Rock 'n' Roll Nightmare: Subverted. A heavy metal band goes to practice at a farmhouse where the family that once lived in it died mysteriously years before. The Devil takes an interest, and kills the band off one member at a time... and then the lead singer, John Triton, reveals the truth. He's the Archangel Triton, the band was an illusion (modeled after horror film characters - Satan angrily comments that he should have recognized the bass player), and he's come to avenge the family that was killed. Yes, folks, it's Rock Me, Gabriel!

The Wheel of Time: Asmodean, one of the Forsaken, was a child virtuoso on multiple instruments, although he never really fulfilled that early promise (and turned to the Dark One in hopes that he'd eventually manage it if he were immortal). After Rand captures him, he spends a lot of time pretending to be a traveling entertainer.

While aboard the ship he plays sea chanties but during a brief interlude in which he's trapped on an island of cultists who've confused him for Satan, he composes darker, more rock-inspired music, including his hit song "Bone to be Wild".

Good Omens:
Crowley points out to Aziraphale that Hell has almost all of the good musicians. Oddly, even classical musicians. Including ones, like Bach, who dedicated all their work to God. Heaven has only Elgar and Liszt.
Crowley himself likes The Velvet Underground, and he listens to a lot of Queen, although that one is not entirely by choice.

The Screwtape Letters: Inverted. The forces of Hell are staunchly opposed to any music. That's because music is, above all, fun, and the demons hate fun. Silence is also unacceptable because it lets you think. They prefer good, old-fashioned, irritating noise.

Saturday Night Live: Inverted in a sketch where Garth Brooks sells his soul to the Devil (Will Ferrell) for a hit song, but it turns out the Devil's songwriting and guitar skills both suck. The Prince of Darkness struggles to get his guitar in tune, and the best songs he has to offer are banal novelties like "Fred's Got Slacks", or just Smash Mouth songs with reworked lyrics. Interestingly, though, the Devil's sub-par skills end up inspiring a song, so he wound up helping after all.

Alas, Satan then upstages Dudley by taking the stage of a show, not wholly unlike Top of the Pops, himself. "Drimble Wedge" — Satan as pop star — knocks everyone dead and the girls rush over the unheeded Dudley to get to him.

Good Eats: Alton tells a legend about a blues singer who made a Deal with the Devil that helped him bring his music (and hot tamales) to the Mississippi Delta, in exchange for his soul. Alton then goes on to explain that at least the part about the hot tamales is a myth: that was not the result of a pact with Satan (or any other demonic force), but rather cultural exchange between Mexican and African-American laborers.

Lucifer grants his wish, but on a whim makes Furfur the Demon Prince of Hardcore instead.

Crossroads is built on the legend of Robert Johnson. Ralph Macchio plays a Julliard student whose real love is the blues, and particularly with the music of Willie "Blind Dog Fulton" Brown, played by Joe Seneca. Mr. Brown sold his soul for the ability to play blues harp; after breaking him out of an NYC nursing home and traveling to the Mississippi Delta, to get him out of the deal, Macchio goes double-or-nothing in a guitar duel against the devil's champion (played by Steve Vai). The soundtrack is a lot of awesome music by guitar master Ry Cooder.

More Information Than You Require: John Hodgman notes that Steve Vai traded his soul to the devil for hot licks, then used aforementioned licks to try to kill Ralph Macchio, failing because his eyes were too doleful. It's that kind of book.

The Conduit: Played with by Fang Jorgenson, host of the "Fang Bang Metal" radio show. He starts off as a stereotypical heavy metal DJ, but as the game's Alien Invasion proceeds, he interprets it with unrestrained glee as a demonic uprising.

Rock: It's Your Decision details the story of a Christian boy who is persuaded that rock and roll is Satan's influence on youth through references to drug use, the homosexual lifestyle of some of the artists, and songs like "Dancing with Mr. D", "One of These Nights", and even "You Need a Woman Tonight" by the Captain and Tennille.

The Devil: X-Black (the devil) has a much stronger rock sound to his music than X-White (the angel). Walpurgis Night is, the most of it, even though X-White sings a lot of it, it's X-Black's event.
