I get that they are a christian band but this song has absolutely NOTHING to do with christianity and more towards oppression and the fight for your right to be free no matter what the cost. If you believe in the marxist/communist ideas and understandings then this music video/song will make ALOT more sense to you then the idea that its about God or jesus or the Bible. Their Biography states that they r all Majors in Sociology/History and have beliefs in Communism ideas.

Hey guys, please take the time to check out our stuff, whilst we appreciate its not perfect, we would love the feedback to help our sound and progress a lot more as a band, we're incredibly passionate about what we do :)
@brandnewbysink They're a rock band that draw a large portion of their lyrics from the bible. I'm a huge fucking athiest, and I've come to terms with the strong under-tones of christianity throughout their songs.
PS: If anyone is wondering, the song that plays before Image of the Invisible is "Like Moths to Flame", which is another track on Vheissu.
Please Cory and 988, stop talking. Your text on this page only takes up space, both in peoples' heads and on this webpage, which is a medium for much better things. I'd also like to dispel rumors that Dustin Kensrue (vox/lyricist) quotes the bible. He paraphrases, and not every member in the band is christian. I'd like to close by saying that I appreciate those of you who have kept your Hippocampusi active while listening to this song, unlike 988, whose 2-month-old comment is total rubbish.
@brandnewbysink the fact that so many people pick up on the obvious bible references throughout Thrice' song lyrics is NOT a coincidence and is clear evidence that our "Hippocampus" (woo! Big word!) is indeed very active. If you weren't such an arrogant douche you would probably realize this, and not speak for the band by telling everyone what it is they did or did not intend their message to be. I've heard them say at their shows that they get a lot of inspiration for their songs from The Bible
Dude, these guys are a lot like Alexisonfire. Changing from screaming to very little screaming over time, etc, etc. I like them. Glad I found out about thrice.
To be fair it has been predicted religion will go extinct in the major west european countries. I believe in science but I believe people should have freedom to believe in what they want whether I disagree with it or not. Unfortunately these religions (mainly catholics and christianity) feel the need to try and convert me. No. Just No.
@PunkxCherub - All the Alchemy Index's of Thrice are mellow except Fire. If you want something more intense with screaming and such check out Artist in the Ambulance for sure and the Fire Alchemy Index! =]
Why is it that everybody always gives christians a hard time. Why dont you go bother some budists or muslims? Or do you not consider them a viable religion, and therefore, not worth wasting your time on?
Were more than carbon and chemicals? ROFL such bull shit WE ARE BIOLOGICAL BEINGS THAT IT.... THER NO MAGIC FAIRY NO DEMONS !!! SO STOP TALKING TO YOURSELF AT NIGHT !!!
@ohcalcutta81 tought guy lol? yea your right people would rather heared about a buch of mystical noneless. How about you suck my dick you useless douche bag.
@sonicfast17 I'm not really sure if it is, but this is what I get from the video. I think it's about Invisible Children. Because once in thier live performance he was wearing a shirt that said "Invisible Children"
Invisible Children are kids who get taken by a group (can't remember the name) of African soldiers that come into small villages in Africa and kill people and steal the kids. They turn the kids into soldiers, force them to kill each other, and put them through horrible brutal stuff.
@AddemRector It's one of their supported causes, but this song is really deep from all aspects. Hell, Dustin got the phrase "Image Of The Invisible" thinking about Splinter-Cell.
Thrice has done their job. They aren't a band that screams for God per se even tho some of their stuff comes str8 out of the Bible. They intentionally quote from CS Lewis about what Lewis called "sneaking around the dragon". Basically writing Biblical ideas in ways that ppl won't jump at immediately and be like "that's out of the Bible" (with whatever judgements may come after that). May the very fact that you think they aren't a Christian band be a seed to brighter days in ur future. God Bless
i didn't even knew they were Christian, if they are, at least now "Stare at the sun" makes more sense to me and it's not like it made any difference on how awesome they are.
they're not a christian rock band. im a athiest and i couldn't care either way good music is good music. its just other medias can quote the bible and not be lumped into a religious sect. but not music for some reason.....
Yea....this is actually a Christian song. As are many of their other songs. Have you listened to Like Moths to Flame, The Messenger, Of Dust of Nations, or The Earth will Shake? There are more I could list, but I'll stop here.
@YassouDylan yeah plus why then at 4:15 would they camera zoom in on cross on his bracelet. I cant think of any other reason that would seem significant
I hate when people are like "it's open to your interpretation" and "you can think whatever you think this song is about" because truth is you can't, and it shouldn't be open for interpretation when a song is so clearly about something. This song is about the children of God, and anyone who says something else is just downright WRONG.
@TSmity2 the flaw in your logic is the fact that you are basically saying that the artists intent for the song has to be the interpretation that everybody takes out of the song, clearly if the music video was able to be about something totally different, then obviously it can have many different meanings. I mean, obviously dustins lyrics were written with that purpose in mind, but that doesn't mean that i can't take it to have a personal meaning of my own, don't be such a close minded asshole.
@MasterDebator809 It's not close minded. I'm not open to other ideas of what it COULD mean, I'm open to what it DOES mean, and it's about the children of God. And the music video actually has everything to do with that.
@MasterDebator809 What you say makes sense. Often the author doesn't even know what he means too. He's inspired to write certain combinations of words to make a point. Often, as is the case with poetry, those words can allude to many things as you aptly pointed out. Metaphorically, those words can be colored with the psychology of the author that even he is unaware. Therefore, if TSmity2 states emphatically that he 'knows' what the song means just proves how unreliable his opinion really is.
Well, perhaps we should stop believing that all philosophy is valid and throw away every concept that we've derived from it? After all, are philosophers not authors of ideas? Why should we give any significance to art if the "author" (artist) has not a clue what it means, he is just making it. One of the reasons art is inherently valuable is because it is one persons tangible interpretation of something that is intangible.
@TSmity2 So, the way you hear the lyrics isn't based upon your own perceptions or interpretation? Your arguement is fallacious. You need to look up the words truth & interpretation. Then determine the validity of your premise. Truth is NOT written in stone. Your reasoning is flawed. Even if the author agrees with you, his words are open to interpretation.
Why? Truths are filtered through the beholder's mind. "The only absolute truth is that there is no such thing as an absolute truth."
@metaspherz Your idea on truth is actually flawed. In some cases, such as in what's the best flavor of ice cream, truth is subjective to the person. But that's not the case in what something is saying or meaning. It should mean nothing else than what the message coming across. This song is talking about the children of God, period. That's the objective truth. There is no "my truth" or "your truth", there is only truth.
...awesome, sorry... just glad to God for someone else who knows how to defend the faith by the knowledge of Truth. God Bless you and stay strong for the faith!
@kmcgill794 dude! i think i high fived you or said something to you when u caught it! was it at the very end of the show? Cause i remember i said something to the person who caught the last pick. But yeah i was right up front and center probably right next to u, lol
@MasterDebator809 hahah it was way funny, i think you did give me a high five. everybody was like who caught it, where did it go and there were like 5 people behind looking all over the ground for it.
Take a deep breath, all you rebellious youth, if you believe that you were created by an invisible being rather than billions of years of evolution then you have the right to be wrong. Simple.
While neither science nor creationism can convince the other beyond a shadow of a doubt I'll pick science because it relies more on evidence & facts than speculation and wishful thinking. More harm than good has been done to humanity in the name of religion. No song despite its intensity can change that.
@penguinomg Jesus appears to me daily. We've conversed for over 50 years. He guides me as I service the needy. He confirms that I'm one of the chosen & that I must follow his wishes despite legal & social conflicts. In HIs name I witness. My congregation says, "Amen," as I quote scripture. I hear their confessions. Many are saved by His blood.
If millions believe in me, whom among you can prove that I'm NOT delusional? Enough believers can change the world! That's how religion works.
even then, just because you've seen something--doesn't make it a fact. I know you aren't defending the view he had, but think about it this way... can someone prove their eyes are working properly? Many people even saw Jesus do miracles--but refused to believe. Just a thought.
Dude, you have no idea how long I've been trying to find this song xD It's been stuck in my head for years, but, thanks to my horrible memory, the band's always escaped me xD
@Margie001kool I say it could be diffrent then it looks from first sight the invisible God could also be a negativ thing in a they rule the world way thats what the video tells me.
@hollywoodraptor0016 I think you have it backwards. He's saying that the group he's with are the image of the invisible, fighting the others. "We are the image of the invisible" not "We're being killed by the invisible"
@alex12123002 I looked for the lyrics he dosent say a word about god and i thought it would be "they are the image of an invinceble god". I was wrong.

just find out about this band a week ago and i must say im really impressed with what ive seen from them :) anyone else here there likes rise against? :) thumbs up if u do :D
But good music is universal, and the spice of life.. you take your own meaning from each song and let it flow. Nonetheless tasty rifts and kick ass vocals = happy ears here. ^_^
Even with Idenity Crisis has Dustin made hints to some form of spirituality, which we saw with A Torch to End All Torches. Through the years and especially with their latest album Beggars has he further... suggested(?)... his belief in a some-what Christian faith with Wood and Wire, The Great Exchange and certainly Beggars. He allows the listener to get their own opinion out of the music though, he doesn't make it blatant. Thus... genious!
yeah... "Deadbolt" is about a proverb, can't remember which one right now.
I spoke with Dustin last week... it's pretty obvious he's a Christian, though I think the rest of the band may not be. We spoke about the connection between the Arsonist take on the Orthodoxy and how it relates to God's work with us and rebuilding us...
Other than that, anyone that's picked up a Bible can know that Dustin pulls much reference from it and understands it
@droptozro Oh totally, that's cool you got to talk to him. I would imagine, at least hope, the rest of the guys are Christian. They have been together for so long and play such amazing music together, I would have to believe that they are all on the same page in regards to the inspiration. Do you notice what is on the kids wrist when playing the piano as well as what is on Dustin's as he hugs the girl? Such evidence makes it undesputable!
its about the curent time and place we find our selfs in and its a msg to wake up and fight for what is right for all and what is right for you and all that needs to be said is what, ingridcanales siad, "remove the cancer, take back your soul"
well the song explains itself really come on you can not be that stupid? the song is about Christians and how they see themselves in this world. in tye image of god, and the video hints the same! :)
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
ive listened to this song for so long. this is the first time ive seent he video. what a load of garbage,poor performance from the director and head of production. haha..that sleeper hold was crap to! i wish to never see this video again. its left a bad taste in my mouth.
I get that they are a christian band but this song has absolutely NOTHING to do with christianity and more towards oppression and the fight for your right to be free no matter what the cost. If you believe in the marxist/communist ideas and understandings then this music video/song will make ALOT more sense to you then the idea that its about God or jesus or the Bible. Their Biography states that they r all Majors in Sociology/History and have beliefs in Communism ideas.

While neither science nor creationism can convince the other beyond a shadow of a doubt I'll pick science because it relies more on evidence & facts than speculation and wishful thinking. More harm than good has been done to humanity in the name of religion. No song despite its intensity can change that.

@metaspherz so you're saying you've seen a monkey turn into a human. cool story

@penguinomg Jesus appears to me daily. We've conversed for over 50 years. He guides me as I service the needy. He confirms that I'm one of the chosen & that I must follow his wishes despite legal & social conflicts. In HIs name I witness. My congregation says, "Amen," as I quote scripture. I hear their confessions. Many are saved by His blood.
If millions believe in me, whom among you can prove that I'm NOT delusional? Enough believers can change the world! That's how religion works.

@penguinomg
even then, just because you've seen something--doesn't make it a fact. I know you aren't defending the view he had, but think about it this way... can someone prove their eyes are working properly? Many people even saw Jesus do miracles--but refused to believe. Just a thought.

@hollywoodraptor0016 I think you have it backwards. He's saying that the group he's with are the image of the invisible, fighting the others. "We are the image of the invisible" not "We're being killed by the invisible"

Even with Idenity Crisis has Dustin made hints to some form of spirituality, which we saw with A Torch to End All Torches. Through the years and especially with their latest album Beggars has he further... suggested(?)... his belief in a some-what Christian faith with Wood and Wire, The Great Exchange and certainly Beggars. He allows the listener to get their own opinion out of the music though, he doesn't make it blatant. Thus... genious!
ZPCosentino 1 year ago 8
@ZPCosentino
yeah... "Deadbolt" is about a proverb, can't remember which one right now.
I spoke with Dustin last week... it's pretty obvious he's a Christian, though I think the rest of the band may not be. We spoke about the connection between the Arsonist take on the Orthodoxy and how it relates to God's work with us and rebuilding us...
Other than that, anyone that's picked up a Bible can know that Dustin pulls much reference from it and understands it
droptozro 1 year ago
@droptozro Oh totally, that's cool you got to talk to him. I would imagine, at least hope, the rest of the guys are Christian. They have been together for so long and play such amazing music together, I would have to believe that they are all on the same page in regards to the inspiration. Do you notice what is on the kids wrist when playing the piano as well as what is on Dustin's as he hugs the girl? Such evidence makes it undesputable!
