Heavy Metal

I grew up listening to Heavy Metal music, but never cared to interpret the lyrics, until now. I'd like to hear what others think about it.

Wayy way. BMTH has some really interesting lyrics in that 2010 album. Oli got deep into astral projection for awhile there.

I'm listening to the album Killers by Iron Maiden.

The legendary doom metal cult hero, Dennis Cornellius of Place of skulls, Revelation, fate far worse, memory driven. Is driving me to the casino right now. He is I would say agnostic. He isn't interested in religon. Lol this is how he was recently described in this magazine. He is a giant teddy bear. A soft heart with woman hands. Just sayin.

Well I have a lot to say. What specifically do you want to know?
Metal is not inherently Satanic. Music is not inherently Satanic. But all music can be manipulated to fit an agendam

;) message me.

I see we're doing this again...
OP, there's thousands of Metal bands out there with a million lines of lyrics. Unless you're implying that every Metal band, and every song is about the same thing then I think you might need to elaborate a little bit.
1 polkadotgirl 2017-09-23
I wasn't. I was implying that a lot of people claim all metal is bad and that's not true.
I really like metal.
I had to give it a chance.

Ozzy is called the Prince of Darkness or w/e, yet most of his popular work like Crazy Train or Children of the Grave are anti-war songs.

crazy babies is a scary video

Can't mention this without mentioning "War Pigs" friend!

METAL!
It's pretty satanic. Sure music has been hijacked by the illuminaties to indeed push their agendas, but I think (heavy) metal is one of the more violent genres that naturally lend to more degenerate and violent messages, without people actually giving a fuck.
1 pumpkinpyre 2017-09-23
Good point. The message is nearly moot. I do like the sound though.
1 megalodon90 2017-09-23
So look into instrumental stuff.
1 IndigoGosRule 2017-09-23
That's Tenacious D. That song is pretty much a parody of metal music.
1 Thinkingfellersunion 2017-09-23
I don't care for mainstream, black, or commercialized metal. Can seem hokey, over produced, or sloppy to the point of lack of rhythmic integrity. But, there is a lot of really good metal out there. Im currently digging on Skyforger, Sonne Hagal, Sleep, At The Gates, etc etc etc.

i grew up listening to metal .
there are 4 things metal bands sing about
sex + drugs + drinking
dungeons and dragons and vikings or warrior related stuff
war = anti war , government stuff
demons and shit
unless its christian metal then its bible stuff .
1 megalodon90 2017-09-23
Wrong.
Environmentalism, whales from Mars, abstract existential stuff. [I will concede that there is a song about dragons on that album.]
Concept album based on Moby Dick.
Sci-fi themes, space travel/exploration, human experimentation
Nature of existence, holofractal reality, interpersonal relationships
Plus sex/drinking, warrior stuff, anti-government themes [to an extent, I'm mainly thinking of Jesus vs. the moneylenders/pharisees] and demons and shit ARE bible stuff.
1 T-D-S 2017-09-23
didnt iron maiden cover all that stuff already tho ?
1 megalodon90 2017-09-23
So you do know that metal bands don't just sing about the 4 things you listed.
1 T-D-S 2017-09-23
let me just edit my post to say there are more than 4 things and add "weird shit and other crap" as a 5th
1 Deadpool_667 2017-09-23
Metal is fucking awesome.

Quality lyrics
1 megalodon90 2017-09-23
That's not metal. I googled those lyrics to listen, that's a hardcore band and they're shitty hardcore at that. You can find bands with shit lyrics in any genre, and you didn't even get the right genre. Come on, dude.
Allow me to retort.
Wake the world out of slumber
From cattle some have raised to redeem memory
All shall come discover the world into eyes of lunacy
Gateways to the unknown, wide open they call
Intuition peeks beyond the veil of lies
Lucid delirium in the eye of enemy
Seemed like a hoax, now yields verity.
We call for disclosure
And the curtain is sooner to fall
It might give a jolt, release all holds
And I swear that this time no one will reel you back in
You'll no longer care about how it was in your life before
Once you'll see that I've seen beyond this crumbling theatre set
That we were domesticated to call reality
Filigrees all across Mercator, outlandish alien shores
Majestic signatures of wisdom lost wait
Their names erased, painted over, forgotten
More and more (of) you come aboard
We are raising anchor to sail far away
Against winds and tides
We yearn to regain what memories have lost
We will walk the Earth with an inner compass steering our way
Partake the crusade, to free those minds in need for the horizon
The veil torn with word of mouth
Absolute weapon lays in all minds
In your heart, in your soul,
Inquisition visibly carried on, only quit burning people
Yet we see the fervor rising, exhilarating
Global hunger for illumination
Alius sum! Alius sum!
A stranger in the eye of the ignorant
