@Kobraproductions THANK YOU, i am so fucking sick of trying to find descent metal, and when i do, i look up the lyrics and they're all satanic and then i'm like I CAN'T LISTEN TO THIS SHIT, ITS FUCKED UP, so finally good music with epic non satanic lyrics
I don't think this song is about an afterlife, I think it's questioning "Is their really an afterlife?" And he talks about how his father is in a grave now. But, I could be saying a bunch of bs
When I first heard this song, I was shedding tears because this song makes me think of my father. He's not dead, but I wouldn't be a metalhead if it wasn't for him. He is a big metalhead as well. I don't cry anymore when I hear this song, but it always makes me think of my father. Chuck has a huge heart. HAIL TESTAMENT
Great song, great lyrics. This song is about love and you guys are just bashing each other. Let's give his old man some respect and "treat mankind with dignity" shall we? I dunno if there's an afterlife, but if there is I know I'll be rocking out with the best of them! Horns up, never growing old, neverending love.
This sure beats killswitch engage, as i ly dying, lamb of god, all that remains and all those other bands. This is true metal, non of this lyrics about loss, redemption, and hate, testement makes music about real shit going on, they dont just babble about satin, and violence
i dont get why you put lamb of god inbetween those metalcore fags, they are groove metal, in my opinion they are kickass and got 50 times more talent then all those metalcore bands combined
@DenOfWhasps: Venom and the freakin Norwegian Black metal bands always babble on about Satan and occultism. Disgusting posers the norwegian black metalheads are with their huge spikes and blood and corpse makeup. Testament makes most bands like that look like untalented sissies.
@JammingJimmie i like testament and black metal, black metal fans babble about satan and all that while testament/thrash metal fans babble on about bands like a7x and all that. just trying to point out how your fuckin hypocrite
@Kobraproductions obviously u dont know what lamb of god sings about i like testament but lamb of god are fucking insane and they dont worship saitan. u fucking retard
Ironically, all the bands you listed are some of the few real "metal" metalcore bands. They're all listed at metal-archives (While Slipknot, Korn, Underoath, etc, are not). They also happen to be quite good bands.
@Kobraproductions Dude, Lamb of God fuckin owns! But I have just been getting into Testament and I freakin love 'em! Alex Skolnick is awesome. (lol @ "babbling about satin", dude its satan, lol)
@Kobraproductions And their music appeals to peoples moods, feelings or just their type of music. When I'm sad I don't want to listen to dragons being slayed, I want some of the redemption and hate stuff.
@Kobraproductions You do know Killswitch Engage and Lamb Of God sing about both current affairs and hope/freedom right? and Btw all those bands are a complete different style, Killswitch is Metalcore and Lamb Of God is Groove Metal, LoG was a huge inspiration on Testament's Death Metal album's btw, not trying to sound like a know it all dick, nor am I trying to force my opinion on yours, but the disrespect towards other entertainers bothers me.
@Kobraproductions You may be right, but in my opinion most of metal has to treat subjects that no one wants to sing, and doing it in a violent way makes ppl listen to it! You know, someone who sings something like "You'll die alone with nothing but pain", maybe that's a way to say "Do something with your life before it's too late"... Sometimes you have to look beyond the lyrics dude!
@Kobraproductions Sure the sense of the lyrics are important but lyrics aren't all, and anyway, what's the problem with 'true metal'? why a kind of metal would be more real? and so that would mean that there is only one kind of metal, wich is actually false.
These lyrics can definitely be converted into a country song.
