This a song from the Epica concept album. In this scene of the story line we see Ariël (the main character) arriving at the party he got invited to by the Archangel (Mephisto in disguish)

He enjoys himself at the party and eventually Mephisto offers him to help him in his quest in exchange of his soul. And Ariel agrees on that, but only when Mephisto also promises him eternal youth.

And this brings us back to the title of the song.. The fact that Ariel asks Mephisto to not let him age during his journey, means he is found on his looks..

So its both a party for him as it is a feast for other sinners.. A party which is hosted by the devil himself, of course.
