Mortification - Metal Crusade

[Ferosaur]

does anyone else hear the blatant rip-off of Iron Maiden's "The Trooper"? Please tell me it's an homage

[Marmadukemiles]

BTW...if you dont know ,Jesus was a Jew,and Mary the same.. and prophets,paul..etc..read bible and learn..Israel forever rules..Shalom!

[pavementor]

@Marmadukemiles

Thank God that through Jesus Christ's sacrifice at Calvary the old religious system that Israel used was made obsolete forevermore, and now God's chosen people are all who believe in His son Jesus Christ because in Christ there is neither Gentile or Jew nor slave or free, only in Jesus Christ is the true way of God found.

It's no different for Jews, God only accepts those who have accepted His son's death and resurrection, there is no favourtism at all, Joe.

[orchardhill]

@pavementor Oh Lord, please shutup.

[pavementor]

@orchardhill If you have anything to say then say it, what a ridiculous response!

[pavementor]

Why are they using the sign of the flag of secular Israel? What on earth has that country got to do with the love of Christ? blessings, Joe

[PorterA7X]

Is it called white metal because you all cum all over each other while you listen to it.

[Hisroyaljazzness]

@PorterA7X Bro, that wasn't funny, take your immature comments to the chat rooms, Please, Thank you.

[jakeofdeath]

I have nothing against christian music even though I am an atheist, but these guys are not good. Not even a little bit. An example of good christian metal is Living Sacrifice or Extol.

[sytmatt]

@jakeofdeath

Old extol, lengsel, vengeance rising

[socenta]

good job.

[Dontwannaendupwithu]

Hey OnTheEString, Go back to commenting on Slayer videos, and making your reservations in hell where you belong and leave us all alone.

[pyfsecret]

@Dontwannaendupwithu and how are u better than OnTheEstring? if u are truly following Christ, u should care about this person, telling him that he still can be saved instead of telling him to make his reservations in hell... nobody belongs in hell, everybody should be saved, and its sad that so many people dont want to accept the offer of Christ.

God bless u!

[OnTheEString]

white metal sucks,

religion sucks,

this band sucks...

[otep67]

@OnTheEString and you suck.

[Thrashersxer]

@jpbarbedwire1 777 ;)

[Thrashersxer]

@jpbarbedwire1 this band rules = god rules ;)

[BathorysGraveland]

Terrible lyrics.

[StonehardMetal]

One of our favorite bands !! true oldschool.

Check out our band STONEHARD on our StonehardMetal channel.

Horns high!

[WEISSKRAFT]

don't these fools know that the Hexagramis a satanic symbol, 6 Lines, 6 Points, 6 Triangles = 666, coincedence I think not.

[brandonsallerrules]

@WEISSKRAFT it's the star of david

[XTaSee1993]

@WEISSKRAFT like brandonsallerrules said its the star of david a jewish symbol lol

[neepathius]

@WEISSKRAFT if u counted right then u would have counted the extra 2 large triangles that actually make up the star itself, 1 right side up and the other flipped upside down on top of it and upside down pentagrams resemble a goat head, y a goat? cuz goats are the stubborn of the 2 that shepard's watch over...

[metal4eva16j]

@WEISSKRAFT its the star of david dude!

[holywhitefox]

this is melodic !! great song



[RapidFire813]

are they jews?

[TrafficRiot911]

@RapidFire813 no there christians which is awesome that there not ashamed

[TheBlackend666]

I hate white metal, but this is beast.

[GlauberCantacini]

@TheBlackend666 Try listening also to Horde. Search for "Horde - Silence The Blasphemous Chanting"

[Zardikar94]

@GlauberCantacini horde is great  \m/

[0514chino]

white metal that makes no sense thats like making a genre called "softcore"



[Dioliveson55]

im christian myself and i can say i actually like this. i usually dont like christian metal

[fosponomot]

but zionism is evil

[deamonflesh1]

i think god sucks but i love this band i dont listen to the words dont care to but i do listen to the drums

[Pancrestus]

@deamonflesh1 He loves you more than you can know.

[Dioliveson55]

@deamonflesh1 grow up.

[neepathius]

@deamonflesh1 he sacrificed his life and died on the cross for u,that's how much he loves u, if that doesn't bring meaning to ur life i don't know what will, and he says all u gotta do if u ever decide to is believe in him and trust in him as ur lord and savior and remember u never know what will happen tomorrow so make the right choice now!

[reaperstoker]

@neepathius  Keep your hokey superstitions to yourself.

[Crazasta]

@neepathius What brings meaning to my life is the sentimental value I apply to it, my own achievement and thought. I do not need a book or specific God with little logical foundation to make my life meaningful.

[metalrockheavymetal]

awesome



[COROTHTHEMIGHTY]

that's weird, "xlamentx", i didn't think that they had organs back in those times.

[malicorowe]

God rulz! Great Song

holySong !

[Metlahaed]

this is NOT black metal, and it sucks cause god sucks

[jkats14]

@Metlahaed You're the one watching it.

[drew640]

@jpbarbedwire1 It is pretty much, people just call it white metal cuz the lyrics are christian. which death metal and black metal have nothing to do with lyrics anyways, its the style of music.

I would call it Christian black metal.

[DimensionsOfInsanity]

@drew640 This versioin of Mortification I'd call Christian power/thrash metal not black or death

[Yiorgia]

@DimensionsOfInsanity  You are right! This song is good Christian power/trash in my eyes to. This is newer material. The older material from 1990 until 1994 of Mortification is more experimental death metal. Try Necromanicide for example. In these days they were very original. Personally I like the older material the most.

[Yiorgia]

@DimensionsOfInsanity

[BOUKEBANDSTRA]

@DimensionsOfInsanity

more thrash metal

not power metal xD

[ECWExtremeist]

@drew640 Actually black and death metal do have to do with lyrics, if they didn't most would just be called thrash or extreme.

[RenzXVI]

i hate religion but i still love this band.......

this is just too awesome :D

[TheRavenAzarath]

I like this.

[sneasalmaster]

sounds like power metal music but with extreme metal vocals.

[imakickurazz]

Random fact... Most satanists like the whole 666, Inverted cross thing, when, in fact, the inverted cross is a christian symbol. The first pope was crucified on an inverted cross. They actually wanted to crucify him on an upright cross, but he felt he did not deserve to die in the same manner as Jesus. His last words "I'm more metal than you, satanists!"

[3dd656]

@imakickurazz That's why they do the inverted CRUCIFIX. As a Christian, you should know that cross =/= Crucifix. Im Christian terms anyways.

[nocturnmetal]

lol. wtf is white metal???

[gryffonization]

@nocturnmetal it's black metal with more positive/Christian lyrics

[abraxasIX]

@gryffonization

black metal? .. this??

o.O

anyhow...

[gryffonization]

@abraxasIX No, lulz not this specifically, just white metal vs black metal

[MrDmnhntr777]

@nocturnmetal black mettal with a christian messege. oit was a term coined when the first christian heavy metal bands started coming out

[drew640]

This songs great =)

I love satan.

[MrDmnhntr777]

@drew640 and i love God the one who kicked satan out of heaven. so to quote Disciple.. "my dady can whoop your daddy."

[SwedishMetalchick]

@drew640 Gee mate this is christian Aussie metal and you are crying out about Satan. *ROLLS EYES*

Get ur matla book bible right befiore u even speak!

[drew640]

@SwedishMetalchick

Man i LOVE satan. God told me to love everyone =P

[sk8erfreak25]

@drew640 satans not a person...lol

[BOUKEBANDSTRA]

@sk8erfreak25

no he's a bastard that's gonna pay :D

[IsraeliMetalhead]

I hate white Metal...

[berettaNZ]

Ugh.... he should never have changed his vocal style. I can't bear this!

[alicelynn100]

i like mortifaction but i can't find a certain song by them, peace in the galaxy, its off of en vision evangelene

[shadowsoldier492]

@xlamentx: Ya know, the bible says love all. And Jesus was (and is) a Jew. I love Jews as much as I love my God. And Jews worship the same God we worship. They worship Jahova. They worship Jesus, because Jesus helped the Father create Earth. They just don't know who Jesus is. We need to love on them, and tell them who Jesus is.

[calvarybert]

Awesomeness! I've been looking for this group for a while. A friend let me borrow the Hammer of God Album back in Jr High, and it changed my life. Thanks for posting!

[theStyleWithin]

Glad we got that settled. METAPHORS ARE AWESOME!!!

[theStyleWithin]

The mark of the beast is clearly a metaphor for the microchip! Back then, they had to use metaphors to explain the things they saw in their visions of the future GOD gave them. In fact, I love metaphors they're great for explaining indescribable features.

[theStyleWithin]

@xlamentx: The mark of the beast is the best shot your gonna find in reading the Bible to where it says microchip. Dude, do you know that back in those days they didn't have a lot of words in there language! Clearly because there wasn't enough inventions to fulfill those words. Inventions made up most of our words today.

[xlamentx]

@theStyleWithin Dude, you're 20 years old, so I forgive your naivety.

[theStyleWithin]

YEAH!!! The crusades live on even though the Romans are no longer apart of it.

[Fran616]

The beginning harmony is so awesome!

[SvennePung]

this is fucking heavy metal :P and its good

[armenius28]

come on guys.....i know there are alot of christians who dig mortification.But this album is beyond bad.omg....come on you can't call this metal!!

[Mike9042]

Why not?

[armenius28]

There first 2 albums where good,and i never cared about religion....(though i know much about it)Do you want good lyrics?...go for Arcturus.But musically this album is plain bad srry...IMO.Not trying to offend somebody.

[Mike9042]

Well I was not offended I was just wondering why you thought it wasn't metal.

[GoCrazy6000]

more like glam rock...plus the hexagram that is used in satanic rituals on the cover? Ask a witch, ask a warlock. They can't even do a successful ritual without one. Two pyramids intertwined. Man you guys need to learn your symbols here. This is not the star of David. It originated in Egypt when Solomon gave him self to the god moloch, this was put on the alter. Everyone thinks that the pentagram is used for these rituals, they use the hexagram. It all started in Egypt for real.

[corperalgeroro]

You confuse me. There's a history to witchcraft? Are there warlocks among us? because if there are I totally would wanna be one.

[BOUKEBANDSTRA]

@GoCrazy6000

uuh still it's a david star?

and the star of the flag from israel..

and israel is God's land :)

[corperalgeroro]

It's pretty bland.

[marcoencostarica]

Be so blessed STEVE ROWE!!!....

[shadowviper0010]

Awesome song!

[jota7r]

Great song

[oSAIGONo]

best Christian song ever!

[mellosa17]

I whod say, that dis album is the best of Mortification

Hammer on four god

Hallelujah

[Zdgarurumon]

Favorite song from Mortification :)

[murrapanewa]

I have all albuns.Mortification and god rlz!!!!!!!!!!!!

[SCREANOFREAK]

the guitarr solo is amazing^^

[crapworld1206]

I listened to Mortification for the first time... listened it over and over again and I am loving it

[ElrichIV]

GOD rlz!

[TheLuotutin]

@ElrichIV Ah I thought writing a song like this,but figured it would treated like a Thor song anyways...I can see that most people don't discern...

[linihetfield]

porcon diobus for the love of god

[ChristianGrindcore]

this aint bad, everyone keeps telling me it was shit

[beome]

this album was my first mortification album.i loved every min of it.and still do.

[triumphelf]

Margorium,Crimson Thorn,Horde,Mortificarion,Arch of Thorns...

[superchef78]

good music

[QuietusEternus]

Mortification's first three albums ruled but this is disappointing

[gameboy100894]

they where alwase more thrash with death vocals. now its stright forward thrash.

[ChristianGrindcore]

i keep telling you people

GET THE FIRST 3 ALBUMS!!!!

[lv2drumm62m]

what are the first 3?

[shadowhunter675]

Break the Curse

Mortification

Scrolls of the Megilloth

[Mirrorbeholding]

Yes, ignorance will prevail for at least a couple of centuries more.

[natalia0119]

Amen !!!

[taischici]

rofl

I've never heard worse shit in my life.

And no, i did listen to it because a nub friend did send it to me.

IT SUCKS ASS HAAAARRRDD

[Gerardoformusic]

good song metal 4 peace and love getting brutal sounds !! jesus still living in our mind !!

[000theSPENCER000]

there is no such thing as something that is purely secular or purely religious. metal can have everything and nothing to do with christians. just as the bible can tell a story, so can a song. if your gonna dislike something, try not to be ignorant about it.

[Trinity777guitarist]

Oh yes it does! God is so much more intense than the devil. He made the devil. He made him in a beautiful way but he chose to go against God. Therefore metal for the devil is lame.

[Mirrorbeholding]

god live in your mind, satan whenever you work harder,

SATAN thu unique worshiped

[mastercraftsucks]

huh?

[xlamentx]

Of course it does. If it wasn't for Christianity, what would black/death metal artists have to bitch about? And where would you get the 666 in your profile name if Saint John the Revelator had not written it? 666 is part of the Christian language, not little wanna-be-satanists sitting behind their computers. Christianity is more metal than you!

Praise God with stringed instruments and organs.

Praise God upon the loud cymbals.

Praise God upon the high sounding cymbals.

-Psalm 150

[HumanR0bot]

YEEESSS!!!!! thank you!

[mastercraftsucks]

haha so true

[blblblou23]

They wouldn't have something to talk about but satanic metal or any other religion metal is awesome, it doesnt matter what they talk about man, all that matters is the music

[Fazeloe]

Everything you take in affetcs you

[BOUKEBANDSTRA]

@xlamentx

yeah but 666 is the number of the beast or am i wrong? :$

[xlamentx]

@BOUKEBANDSTRA It's the number of Nero. Read Early Church history of the first 4 centuries and to what the Fathers say. 666 has been turned into something completely foreign in the western Christian world.

[lahmarko]

@xlamentx If you read the whole Book Of Revelation, it speaks clearly about the things that have not happened! Not during the Nero age and not to this day! So think again, what the message is. The Revelation can not be some coded message that warns about Nero and so on. It is clearly about the last days..just before Jesus comes back. So 666 is not the number of the Nero but of the Beast. And the number of the mark of the beast..the microchip. None of this has happened yet.

[xlamentx]

@lahmarko the mark of the beast..the microchip. lol. Find me verse in Revelation that clearly says "microchip." Then I might take it seriously.

[lahmarko]

@xlamentx Nowadays we have microchipped credit cards which can be used as money to buy and sell stuff. Tthe Bible says, the mark of the beast is clearly something with which you can buy and sell stuff. And ONLY if you have the physical mark in your hand or forehead. At least to date the best explanation of the mark of the beast is the microchip.

"And that no man might buy or sell, save he that had the mark, or the name of the beast, or the number of his name."

(Revelation 13:17, King James)

[xlamentx]

@lahmarko No no, i said find the verse that says "microchip", I don't need speculations based on what one of your "pastors" might have taught you. As I said before, read the writings about the book of Revelation from the first 4 centuries in order to have a better grasp of the book.

[lahmarko]

@xlamentx Of course not, because there was no microchips around at that time. I also don't need your speculations about Revelation. So let's just keep the faith we have. Jesus is Lord and that is the main thing! God bless!

[xlamentx]

@lahmarko You are right Jesus is Lord, but I never made any speculations myself about Revelation, just the collective knowledge of the writers of the first 4 centuries. There's quite a lot of hubris when difficult passages and a most misunderstood book is distilled down to things like "microchips," etc. If you want to experience Revelation on a weekly basis, go observe an Orthodox Liturgy. Also, pick up a book titled "A Second Look at the Second Coming" by T.L. Frazier.

[TheMetaleric]

@xlamentx thats an awesome verse dude..

[shadowsoldier492]

@xlamentx This is so true. 666 isn't just a number of Satan, it's a number of warning. We're told in Revelation to watch for the number of the beast.

OH, and Mortification is wicked. I like Impellitteri too. Aparently, Impellitteri isn't a Christian band after all? Chris and one other guy are Christians and the others are jews. Pretty cool how they can sing about God and agree on it. :) I love Jews! haha.

[xlamentx]

@shadowsoldier492 Why do love Jews so much? If they aren't worshiping the Triune God as revealed at Christ's Baptism, and don't understand God as Trinity, then they're just worshiping a God that is a figment of their imagination.

[BOUKEBANDSTRA]

@shadowsoldier492

mjup..

impellitteri himself is christian..well... i guess he is..

and rob rock is a christian..

he sang for impellitteri..

and now has his solo album's and is in a new band : Driver..

check it out ;)

[shadowsoldier492]

@BOUKEBANDSTRA You're right. Rob Rock and Chris Impellitteri are both Christians. But the other members in the band are jewish. I asked them this on myspace after I listened to "The Iceman Cometh" on their "Pedal to the Metal" CD (best CD they have, i think), and I heard the part in the lyrics where it says, "Nows your turn, here's a fucking black rose." I didn't think a Christian band should sing that in their songs, and so I asked them. Chris messaged back and said they aren't a Christian band

[shadowsoldier492]

@xlamentx You're right. Jesus is called the "Rock," the "Rock of Ages." Christianity was meant to be rocked about. And the bible itself is a book of books full of excellent metal lyrics. Christ Bless you, brother.

[Zardikar94]

@shadowsoldier492 ahha lol "full of excellent metal lyrics" lolololol

[IceReverie]

@xlamentx Let everything that has breath praise the Lord! :3

[wadungalungasertotin]

@xlamentx you do are right in the 2nd sentence

[nexpia]

@xlamentx what if u think its all just bullshit? what if everything is just a pigment of ur imagination created by stories u heard as a child? stories that originated from thinkers of the past that tried to capture the concept of life? what if the translation that was lost read 'not to be taken literal. this is my own opinion'? not in english of course. u dont know anything about life until its gone. THEN you can claim the existence of superior beings... otherwise... just shut the fuck up...

[Reflexivo77]

Great song! I love It!

Jesus Is Risen! Metal Crusade!

From Spain.

[GodRulz1]

Great song!!

[LouderThanTheDevil]

Great God, great band, great song! :)

[Mirrorbeholding]

Did the band become christian as they did it?

Or just satirizing.

[canalladfc]

no, really.

[LouderThanTheDevil]

The band IS Christian. :)

One of the best Christian Metal bands. :)

Praise God.

[Seriousity222]

Sorry dude, what are trying to say here? That the lyrics depict a situation to lofty for yourself to imagine and therefore empty words? What's that got to do with the last two hundred years? Please explain, I don't understand the wording of your comment and now I'm curious :)

[Mirrorbeholding]

I, the one who is replying, didn't write it.

[Seriousity222]

Amen! Pretty stoked after reading their lyrics, most so-called Christian metal in my experience has been the proverbial wolves in sheeps clothing; this is more like a sheep clothed as a wolf, or more aptly "wise as serpents, and as humble as doves"

Or so it seems :)

Peace, Christ bless you
