Believer take technical thrash to a whole new level with this 20 minute epic masterpiece! The combination of opera and classical influences and sublime lyrics take it to a level of genius!
An absolute masterwork of music, from the dramatic intro to the hard-hitting and technical riffs to the vocals, which remind me of my husband's before he discovered he can sound like AJFA James Hetfield. He already downpicked everything, even when he had to do eighths and sixteenths in 260bpm. Now he sings like the man and dresses like a cowboy. His dad's name is James too, and his name means "Son of James" (Not hard to figure out, but it's a weird spelling you won't guess, not really doxxing myself here.) I don't think he'd choose a different name because he looks up to both his bio-dad and his metal-dad, both named James, quite a lot. Also, atheists are like "I'm gonna hang out with Marilyn Manson in hell" First of all, if he keeps hanging out with Alice Cooper, I wouldn't be so certain. Second, we get most of Black Sabbath, Slayer (Sabbath is notoriously Catholic and only mentions Satan as a depiction of evil, ex: War Pigs. Everyone worth meeting in Slayer is also Catholic. I'm a non-denominational protestant but I think that as long as you accept Christ and work to deepen your relationship with Him, all denominations have the same eternal address.), some of Megadeth, Believer, Anacrusis (These obscure bands are better than Anthrax imo, and, on a technical level, top the whole Big 4.), Alice Cooper, Johnny Cash, Elvis, half of Iron Maiden, Dio (I know I said Black Sabbath already, but Dio deserves his own mention), at the very least Sean Killian of Vio-Lence (looks like a serial killer, super nice guy. My husband almost gave him a piece of his liver and they spoke at length.), and who knows who else is being private about it? My parents always thought thrash was just about war, death, and negativity, which shows how willfully ignorant they are on it. My father, who happens to be a pee-dough, loved KISS and was trying to promote them to me. I heard it and thought "Ugh, this is just as bad as all of that raunchy sex crap on the radio" (I was sick of sex before I even had it, just because I saw how it warped adults' minds when used incorrectly.), but they judge my music, when Megadeth's Countdown to Extinction, a kind song about the evils of canned hunting, And Metallica's Creeping Death, literally just a "God did a thing and it's metal as heck" song, just in the most mainstream corner of thrash, that argue quite differently. I grow so sick of Boomers, many of whom were all but sx addicts before their equipment powered down, to the relief of every child in the Bible Belt, judging us for loving this when their music is the WAP of their day!

Wonderful! If Genesis and the Old Testament and it's Prophets are true than Jesus Christ is Lord. Praise be to the Lamb of God.
One of my faves, for sure. & they were so young at the time.
A philosophical masterpiece.
Extraordinary music.

[INTRO: THE BIRTH]
[MOVEMENT I: THE LIE]
The fruit from the tree was so pleasing to my eye
The serpent said that I would not die
The serpent shall be cursed, he will crawl about and eat dust
I will put enmity between the woman and you
Man will crush your head, you will strike his heel
The wisdom of the world will be mine if I eat
What can it hurt if I take it and eat?
I will greatly increase the woman's pain
When bearing children all of your days
You will desire man, he will rule over you
Take some, man, gain wisdom, too
Eat from the tree, it's what you must do
The land will be cursed because of man
Producing thorns to make him bleed
By your sweat you will live until death
Dust you are and to dust you will return

[MOVEMENT II: THE TRUTH]
(Then Jesus was lead by the Spirit into
The desert to be tempted by the Devil
After fasting 40 days and 40 nights, he
Was hungry. The Tempter came to him
And said...)
If you're the son of God
Tell these stones to become bread
Man does not live on bread
But by words from the mouth of God
If you're the son of God
Throw yourself to the ground, God will save you
But is written
Do not put your God to the test
All the world I give you
If you bow and worship me
Leave me now and worship
The Lord your God, serve Him only
When Satan left him there
The angels came to him
Temptation lost
[Matthew 4:1-11]
[MOVEMENT III: THE KEY]
Evil scheming, wicked violence
And such is the end of all with ill gotten gain
Hatred, rejection, mocking others
This takes the lives of those with ill gotten gain
Do not walk on paths of the wicked
They are the darkness and they don't understand
The path of the righteous first dawns, gleaming
Shining brighter 'till the full light of day
Do not offer body to sin
Offer yourselves to God as those brought to life
Therefore put on the armor of God
So when that day of evil comes, you can stand your ground
[Pr. 1:19, 4:14-19; Ro. 6:13; Ep. 6:13-14]

Increasing women's pain is a dick move though, tbh.
