Eating the Sun

[minithemoocha]

love it... yeah!!

[MrWax18]

This band is fantastic!!!

[lacvillesk]

I would love to see these guys tour with Down, be their supporting act, open for them, The Greats, who go by the name of Down \m/

[Joshuk1984]

If Alabama Thunderpussy were still going and Phil Anselmo started singing for them, this is the sound they'd have.

[yesitsmecraig]

1 person needs to be thrown into the sun!

[andyc020286]

very good but how the fuck can this be compared to pantera ???? someone please enlighten me !!!!!!!!!

[NEWMESSIAH2000]

from 3:45 to 4:40 sound like HIM

[NEWMESSIAH2000]

breath freezing O_O! sounds s little like HIM too

[jthilton89]

This is fucking awesome. These guys deserve more recognition than they’re given!

[smurftojohn]

Nice!

[joker12115702]

being the son of the bace player adam rankie he is a great pa and is a awsome bace player hail to the south sincerly vinny

[getchapull336100]

that's like saying ripper owens sounds too much like rob halford or the plethora of 60's 70's bands that "ripped off" the blues musicians that came before them. lets just all get over our pretentiousness and enjoy some fucking good music.

[getchapull336100]

to the "knowledgable" ones who think hes TRYING to sound like phil , get real...phil doesn't even sound like phil anymore. you can't TRY to sound like someone and do it this accurately, he just HAPPENS to sound like phil. it's so obvious it's his natural singing voice or at least the only way he can sing..but it's not him just ripping phil off by any means. theres an influence but what sets seth apart from the phil ripoff artists, is he can pull it off. i dont hear ripping off i hear capability.

[Aselea12]

yeeeeeeeeeears away

[Aberrancy4584]

Don't get me wrong. There very talented but they really solitify there own sound. I can here it in the music but they sound a little to much like Pantera and Down at this point. I think they'll grow into there own over time. They are a very good band and I meen no disrespect toward them.

Long live the fucking SOUTH!

[flameboy44]

This band needs to get fucking worldwide

[Percifield40]

more Down than Pantera in my opinion but the vocals sound so much like phil its amazing

[battereye]

@Percifield40 Yep, this one is closer to the Down stuffs, but the rest of the album is more agressive than this song and Weeping Willow.

[Percifield40]

@battereye more aggressive for sure, i cant get enough of this stuff. i replay this song about 15 times a day lol

[Aberrancy4584]

@Percifield40 It's good but the dude is trying way to hard to be Phil.

[photoboy2005]

i got to see them a few months ago. they opened for written in blood, shadows fall and winds of plague. i only got to really hear there last 2 songs because i was dealing poker to some of the members from winds of plague. but the 2 songs i heard where fantastic.. and there guitarist is amazing... there coming back nov. 19 and me and my friends are going to see them... cant wait...

[thepumpmann]

@photoboy2005

My fellow SC metalhead....how was the show on the 19th?

[porizkovabasta]

very interesting music :-))

[fonzysimon1]

still cant get over how good this song is...

[silvermirror26]

does anyone have the lyrics to this, or know where i can get them?

[ACDC666SatrianiVai]

Epic song, I need say no more.

[fonzysimon1]

fucking amazing..

[thepumpmann]

If you don't know who these guys are you can find out more on their myspace page.

Click on music and search for sign of the southern cross under artist name.

They are from the Asheville NC area. Proud to call them friends. Great group of guys. Enjoy seeing them play live whenever I can.

Do yourself a favor and buy this CD. It will be the best money you've spent on music in a while. Order from Best Buy online or through Season Of Mist which is their label. Worth every red cent!

[thepumpmann]

Chorus @ 1:45

"I've touched the sun on high"

"And tore my mind as I fell from the sky"

"I've burned my tongue in thirst of peace"

"Like a horrid bolt from the blue"

"I guild the lily and find nothing in you"

"So I wash my hands so clean of this"

[thepumpmann]

"Demonize - The devil in me"

"By way of wicked men-with their wicked tongues clacking"

"I don't mind-chastise"

"Taste my lips-They burn from the running"

[acerb45666555]

i thought i heard the word "wiccan"? ..naaah, cant be. a line like "Demonize the devil in me", would have no connection with peace loving wiccans! the hippies of pagan world! :)

[acerb45666555]

[wyldeman14]
