Blinded by Rage - Mirth, Mayhem and a Better Tomorrow is a thrash metal album every metal head will surely enjoy for the years to come. Half of this album has anti-religion songs that go against oppression set out by the righteous. The album has the raw sound you would expect to hear from a metal album. Dark sounds, anti-religion, going against oppression, angst, dealing with your inner emotions, and such. All these songs have a theme of negativity.
Forces of Misery is about how religion prey on weak souls and destroys life altogether. The song itself is very anti-religion.
The twisted minds of religious people who feed on the blood of innocents. They prey on weak souls. Through centuries of oppression, wars, crusades, and inquisitions is how religious people controlled nearly everything and how religion has ruined humankind.
Somewhere along the line is where religion turned into hate. This is explained in the first chorus.
(first chorus)
the blood of Christ is tainted
the tomb of Mohammed - defiled
religion turned into hate
by forces of misery
Somewhere along the line is where religion turned into hate by the forces of misery. The tomb of Mohammed has been defiled and the blood of Christ is tainted by forces of misery.
Human history is rife with holy wars. Romans killed Christians. Christians slaughtered Muslims. Inquisition turned the church into the enemy of the people. Religion turned to tyranny. One example of how religion turned tyranny is bombing of abortion clinics.
Perspectives is a song about how perspectives change when you’re in a hole.
You live life in vain because the past has haunted you. Loss = pain. Latent = intent. Now you lament on your past. Now things couldn’t be worse. You are not event free to roam the Earth. Perspectives change when you’re in a hole.
Absolution is a song about fighting with the devil. Yes, it’s another anti-religion song.
The devil tries to dismount you and emotionally cripple you. He discovered somehow that you are very weak emotionally. You curse him as you pistol whip his face. His teeth are sent flying all over the place. Only his death will set you free. Heather screams for mercy, “Please spare me.”
Absolution is what you crave. You need absolution from all that torments you. Absolution will set you free. Yet a trial begins after you kill the devil.
The judge asks you to plead guilty or innocent of a crime you are being charged with. Suddenly you feel utter betrayal of a fellow being by intention infliction of suffering. The judge charges you guilty as charged. The sentenced is passed. You have to antone for your crime.
I rate this album, 5/5*****!
