Mortification - Scrolls of the Megilloth

[coon123coon]

yeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeaaaaa­aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa­aaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh­hhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

[BringBack1776]

Been heavy since 1987, still playin. These are real warriors for Yeshua. Yeah it's weird that people think Christians have to sound a certain way, the majority of REAL believers work with rap/punk/metal/ska etc. It's all about the word. Imagine God's voice, would be a hell of a lot louder/stronger than thunder.

[Mitsyrules]

Lol, that's pretty cool. But I don't see why people are surprised this is Christian metal because of the sound of the music...it's a band's lyrics that would make a band Christian...and you can't understand what the fuck he's saying anyway.

[ElvisBluntman777]

don't know what's christian about this but it is definitely Death fucking Metal!

[MetalAttack1986]

@ElvisBluntman777 the members are Christian and if you look at their lyrics you'll figure out it's all about Christianity

[22CSX23]

@MetalAttack1986 have you seen the video by them called termination damnation

[MetalAttack1986]

@22CSX23 Yes!! That's one of their best songs along with this one! Fuck!! Their both from their best album!

[ElvisBluntman777]

@MetalAttack1986 that's cool I guess...I'm just here for the music...very brutally talented band.

[Darknessio]

Et dire que je m'attendais à quelque chose de plus religieux en pensant que c'était du White Metal xD

[damaged01]

1:40 is so fucking sick

[MrThrasher420]

Daaaaaamn This shit is heavy as fuck i almost broke my neck haha

[darth0bush]

For me it matters, they get extra points over slayer... for being christians

[TheJvli0]

alabado sea dios por esta estupenda musica q traes a nuestros oidos!!!!!!!

[aemmg789]

lo mas triste eske esto lo escuchan mas metaleros hijos del demonio ke los mismos cristianos

[Weltumdreher]

i love this music..

bless

LAPPI

[slayyer000]

Christian,Muslim,Satanist,Athe­ist religion doesn't matter as long as they can make sick music like this!

[Punjabi192]

@slayyer000 You got that fucking down!!

[MrFirefox24]

@slayyer000 Agreed.

[Kendofang]

It's kinda hard to believe, but the singer/bassist Steve is still around and still playing in Mortification- although the new stuff sounds nothing like this... Another interesting fact is that now he is playing in a classic rock/punk band called Wonrowe Vision. Give it a listen- I thought the music was pretty good but I kinda felt like his vocals didn't really fit. (pretty much starting his career as a death vocalist.)

[blackmetalhoward]

FUCKIN AWSOME SONG AND BAND

[maitito2]

god rulez!!

[bendtx]

lol i used to listen to these guys in middle school, we thought it was so metal

[Neurosiisx]

Thank you to all the open-minded people that love this band for the awesome, brutal death metal they put out, and for not caring whether they're Christian or not; that doesn't matter.

[elessar3264]

wow!!!  awesome band!!!

Christian Death Metal!!!

[MrNecropink]

I'm Anti-Christian in my beliefs but i still own an few of their albums purely because they make awesome music and that's all that matters to me.

[bulaga1]

Head Banging all over the World here o K.

[rentia]

apologies to the person that posted this and the band, but seriously - it sucks!! Thank god taste differs

[starlingrock]

wow christian death metal XD

[leonardososa123456]

[cdmontano]

3rd part.

A book of philosophy

Frustration absurdity

Everything has a season

Purposed under Heaven

Ecclesiastes, Solomon's searching

Just like your life.

[2 Tim. 3:16, Prov. 5:15-20, 2:16-20, Ruth 1:16-17 (a picture of a Christian's dedication to Christ), Esther 4:11, 6, Esther 5:2 (a picture of John 15:13), Prov. 3:5-6, Is. 30:15-17, Deut. 21:18-21 (destruction is a logical result of defying God) in contrast to Ps. 34:7, Ps. 27:2-3, Romans 8:20-25]

[cdmontano]

2nd part ... Esther, victory of morals Over conniving racist king Sovereignty and great courage Protection of God's people Taken to captivity A sense of tragedy Jeremiah's Lamentation Grieving for his nation Destruction is a logical result Of defying God

[cdmontano]

Guidance of our intimacy Holy love is what I see Direction from the book of life Song of songs in the Megilloth Existence of admiration Man's part of God's creation Scrolls of the Megilloth Scrolls of the Megilloth David's genealogy A female friend is she Ruth is a book of love To overcome difficulties Boaz, symbolic of Christ Redeeming His holy Church

[mobilesuitZer0]

[Gandalf930]

[mobilesuitZer0]

GANDALF!

[Gandalf930]

YEZ ITZ MEH

[TimeDawg]

LOL. Mortification is a Christian band, bro.

[Giordie666]

Bloooody hell, this is Christian Death Metal!

[mobilesuitZer0]

GANDALF!

[Gen0cideMachinex138]

HAHA thats great

[moretricky]

Thank youfor giving me back my youth. Must have been 87 or 88!

[Deathgrind740]

Holy shit...brutal

[dubya68]

Proof that religion has no bearings on what makes music good or bad.

[TPM4594]

I gotta say this is the best death metal ive ever heard and usually i HATE death metal

[PaulBirdtheDrummer]

God or no God this band is fucking awesome

[Llamanessone]

This is back when Death Metal used to be good.

Now, 80% of Death Metal (along with almost all other types of Metal) are Fail and Aids

[Thepunishingguy]

Fuck,this band is so brutaly-awsome,that i just can't believe they're christians...

[Eggbeater77]

i talked to lead singer at a festival of the christian kind it was called BLAcK STUMP it went for three days held in nsw australia He was a heaps cool person and yes fully christian beliefs and views in life.

[Indigojodi]

I been listen to these guys for years. they did a uk tour. because they are a band with christian value the death metal underground put a death notice out . They did the tour anyway and did better then the other bands in sales and concerts.

[Thepunishingguy]

Christianity has no value...

[DYOLFMOT]

@Thepunishingguy why cant you believe that there is a band that doesn't pretend to be part of a religion like 85% black metal bands do

[andreasmariosetiawan]

@Thepunishingguy is this really2 christian metal? wow this is very cool

[gigiorose]

wonderfull

[maquadago]

this grindcore?

[CrimsonAncelot]

no, this is death metal, classic death metal

[charxphy]

wiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii la mueveee :D

[nailledforme]

amazing stuff...awesomr christian metal!!!

[CondeVladDracul]

Its stupid loving a band only because is christian or satanic, i hate most christian bands cause there are many metalcore and deathcore of bands that are christian, but i cant hate this band, cause is fucking amazing, so i dont really care about if is or not satanic..

Anyways someone have the 1990 demo by mortification, isnt this band, its the one from US, i love this band but im interessed in the other one too, it only haves 1 demo.

Excellent song btw

[Commerterer]

Thank God there's a God.

[Sicenunow]

Christian metal will always be SECOND CLASS to REAL METAL so STOP arguing!

[Cosmoses88888888]

Metal is Metal is Metal

[TohtoriJorma]

well then when you do some Your REAL METAL. Keep in mind that your music must beat this so called Second class ;)

[Sladetator]

sepultura does it better!

[Lorak090]

It's better to be Christian, because if God exists, you could go to Heaven, and if He doesn't exist, nothing will happen.

[kidznextime]

Hiihii :P

[ManfestDestiny1986]

Yeah, nobody cares what you have to say, Good luck being an idiot.

[sarahewright9]

satan will be forced to listen to music like this for all eternity as part of his punishment...and we will enjoy.

i love mortification!

[Sicenunow]

Mortification are from Melbourne,Australia & i have met them at Crossways & CMP in the early 90's.Scrolls kicks arse,everything else SUCKED!!!

[IPWNCOWS]

awesome, im seeing them at the black stump music festival in sydney in OCT, gonna be sweet, HEADBANG FOR JESUS!!!

[wutislulz]

that chick has mad bangs

[WhenxChristxReturnsx]

It's a dude.

[Damnedfaith]

OMfg, this is a disgrace to all metal bands. You say it's about lyrics, but listen to canibal corpse. Sound very similar, oposite lyrics.

And it's disrespectfull to normal christian people.

[MilitantChristian]

Mortification is the best death metal band!!!

Jesus would headbang to this...

[MilitantChristian]

Mortification kicks Satan's ass!

[megaverga6]

MORTIFICATION is christian death metal 4 life

[sifarn]

Mortification is an christian death metal band, so? whats the big deal?

[steelbelt]

Satan himself offered Jesus power over all kingdoms of the Earth- meaning he has power over all the kingdoms of the Earth. Jesus said "Get the fuck away from me"

[aspect000]

Hahaha...

[Clayt95]

If jesus told Satan to get the fuck away from him....he sinner because swearing is a sin.

[CenturionRyan]

Well, there are a few problems with your theory.

1. You've obviously not aware what steelbelt was talking about.

2. The word 'Fuck' wasn't invented back then.

3. They would have spoke in Hebrew anyway.

4. Jesus didn't sin. Like, ever.

[melkatts]

Mortification is a great metal band, Christian or otherwise. I've seen them in concert twice and they were awesome.

[StillDying]

In fact, I think most "Satanic" bands only want to have a 666-image. Best example for this: SlipKnot. I don't say, Slipknot's shitty, I think, their played "666" image is shitty...

[Gioeli76]

never dis slipknot, they r not satanic. now marylin manson is satanic

[ronaldoxxx2]

satan vale callampa el ejercito de Dios VENCIO

God rulz

MORTIFICATION RULZ

[guildwars69x]

Kickass song, Kickass band, god rules, screw satan, end of story.

Try antestor if you like this. :)

[ParasiteEve666]

Drep De Kristne!

[ylfluoS]

Holy fuck....... (Am I even allowed to write that here or am I gonna get flamed for that by either side "debating" here? Meh... whatever) That's one fine piece of metal. Wouldn't quite call it death metal, since death metal defines itself also via lyrics and content, but just from the musical point of view... those dudes kick ass. Actually the first piece of christian metal I've heard so far :)

[iwebber88]

They are classified as Death metal by most metal enthusiansts. I also see them listed as Extreme metal as well.

I like this band... alot. And for those hating them because they are Chrsitian, get over it and quit being bigoted. And Christians listening to this ONLY because it is Christian... well, not that I'm going to bash you, but there are good secular bands as well, don't be so closed-minded.

[iwebber88]

Let me rephrase that, "simple as Extreme metal." It's such a big genre that kinda didn't make sense haha.

[ylfluoS]

Part 2:

Anyway, just going out to all you guys flaming each other:

No serious black metal listener worships Satan

No serious death metal listener is a homicidal psycho

So... yea, you get the point. Fuck that "oooh, they're christian, I can't listen to them, because I'm sooooo fucking badass" or that "ahhh, they pwnz0r b'cuz god pwnz0rs 2!" Allright? Just enjoy the music

[obscurastierras]

Scrolls of the Megilloth Yeeeeeeahhhhhhh!

[therebelrocker87]

Simply.... Brilliant song of a brilliant death metal band. Que Dios nos bendiga con este tipo de grupos. Death Metal don't have to be satanic, afortunately.

[Mortificationrock]

now this is how you fight satanic music!!! With a little taste of christian metal!!! Same BRUTAL riffs Positive message no more SATN rules crap cuz GOD rules Him!! HAHAHA Keep it up Mortification im big fan!!! And long live the king for eternity! Heres a Quote "Hell is truth....seen too Late"

[jovek747]

me too man i hate satanism and it is a lie the only religion thats true is cristianity and nothing else expt for those who belive in god and only god KEEP ROCKin!!! LONG LIVE MORTIFICATION!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! ^^

[TheBeastOfBusco]

Holy crap Jayson had huge hair

[scheffin]

his haircuts have always been awfull :-)

[frostythesasquatch]

Nothing's more metal than playing in the outback.

[Jow45metal]

Death Metal talking about love and Jesus?????

GIVE ME A BREAK!!!!

[GoreBastard]

This song always ruled. People need to get over the fact that they're christians. Who gives a fuck, as long as it's heavy!

[timbo81]

truth, as long as it distorts it's fine with me

Not like you even tell what they are saying anyway.

[saintguy]

Hmm... Megilloth is actually "Scrolls" in Hebrew.

Scrolls of the scrolls. :P

Nice music though.

[maesterhiro]

Whats wrong with people? Cant you just enjoy fucking music and not turn it into Satan vs God.

[pingu53]

im anti-christian but this cant deny this song owns

[patrickhufschmid]

i was a teen when this came out hahahahaha weird to see this back again

[killjojo]

Blast Beats for Jesus!

[upthebikez]

I just find this amusing. No gods and no masters for me. Luckily these dudes definitely are not masters of anything resembling metal. The vocals are attempts at tru e death metal growls and the stupid breakdowns are more at home in metalcore. Try again.

[thathxckid00]

how about you are stupid and you probably know nothing about metal or anything close.  black sabbath on your page. enough said

[Chuloloc]

Christianity in todays world sucks but Morification still rules. Scrolls and Post Momentary Affliction are the best Morification CD's ever.

[DTHTFCuddles]

Woooooo scrolls of the megilloth

Mortification is the best example of how believe in God can be cool.

[FriarTuck98]

all of i like is METAL,nothing else if this evil,i not searched nothing of evil, MORTIFICATION IN MY HEART GOD paradon me but,FUCKKKK ALL people that have hate and anger of mortification

[FriarTuck98]

DEATH METALLL

[vaughn07]

too damn heavy for christian music...but if this is the kind of music they play at church...dude i'd go to church everyday

[Jessewats17]

If wearing black is evil than Christian UnBlack metal bands must be evil according to doctor deedeedee up there....

[fandrez]

EXCELENTE VIDEO, BUEN DEAD METAL

[persecutor666]

Fuck you christians! Satan has arrived,the black flame of Metal belongs to him. Never forgive this!

[Mishu31]

Errrrrm...ok ! whatever you say buddy...Btw, u and satan have a one way ticket to those flames , black or not !

[juggernaut1986]

Dude you are ate up in the head. I'd seriously get some help if you believe in that kind of shit.

[UmbraGrave]

ick, fuck this shit.

[xianfreak]

again if you have such a problem with it watch somthing else don't put yourself through this pain go wtch your morbid angel or somthing....

[obscurastierras]

-l- Yeaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhh -l-

[hurricane330bpm]

brilliant song!!!One of the best ever!!!

[CryingStreetnight]

You know, seeing this clip has made me more acutley aware of how famous this band is. Good music, "christan" or not.

I just met them yesterday ... gotta admit, theyre even better live.

[xianfreak]

lol all these tough satanists and emos crying like babies cause someone that isnt exactly like them and doesnt have the same views and religon "or lack of" as them can play metal i remember wen being in the scene was bout being an indevidual!!! tis very funny to see!!!! most people would just listen to somthing else im sooo sorry that us christians may actuly like/play more than one kind of music!!!!! MORTIFICATION RULES and if you don't like it ermm listen to somthing else duh!!!!!!!!

[ChuckSchuldinerisGod]

OK First of all Im not satanic, I do believe in God, and second Im not an emo like you. I am a very knowledgeable Death Metal fan that can assure you Death Metal that death metal was founded to get away from the sickening social logic of which Christianity is a part, of mainstream culture. Death metal is about passion and spirit; Christianity is about bowing to a spirit, an idea, and a religion which has demonstrated its moronic effects on culture for the last 2,000 years.

[ChuckSchuldinerisGod]

There is a reason why they are wearing black, black represents evil so as their music... lyrical content doesnt make them christian, under all that christian lyrics there is a really dark obscure and evil message hidden... they say all that shit more in a sarcastic way and they dont really mean it trust me!

[Keskimaki]

Black represents evil and all that yadayada... sorry man, but your horrendously hilarious :D

[Mishu31]

You are an idiot my friend, wearing black clothes doesn't make you evil , or singing metal ! it's all about the message , and everything that they do and sing they do it for God , and that's what matters !

[ChuckSchuldinerisGod]

I love Mortification! but unfortunately is Christian Metal!!! Metal was meant to be dark, obscure and evil... whatever they sing or say is a total contradiction and I think is pure horse shit.. The whole christianity stuff is promotional.

[brokenbones3]

And uh...who exactly said that metal was meant to be "dark, obscure and evil"?

[clottoyup]

Lets get this straight, satan is practicly dead wheather you like it or not, Jesus is alive wheather you like it or not and He loves you very much and there is nothing you can do about it! Christian metal will allways be around and dominent wheather you like it or not and so will Jesus!

But don't worry, Jesus isn't only for Christians, He's for everyone, sinners and unbelievers too.

So stop with all the offensive language and abuse because it's getting lame and tiresome.

[brokenbones3]

AMEN!

[pieterjanbosurk]

@DamosAbadon: it isnt nasty christian shit. If the name of Jezus or God is said in another way than to curse you hate it.

You not christian, we are happy to be called a christian whatever you will say.

[DamosAbadon]

Fucking nasty christian shit, FUCK! Christian scumbags FUCK OFF!!!!!

[pieterjanbosurk]

drakgrotta is right, btw how to download this clip?

[xianfreak]

lol its amazing how intolorant some people are of others beliefs so what if they are christian?? go back to the dark ages and put your pointy white hood on cause guess what, hating someone because of their beliefs is just as bad as hating someone cause of their skin colour!! heres an idea if you dont like christian metal dont listenn to it!!!

[drakgrotta]

man you dont know how right you are

[dudaimradio]

lol.

every normal christian and every normal metalhead will tell you that you are pieces of shit.

hail and kill, my brothers of not-fucking-christian-metal

[DamosAbadon]

"He's" DEAD! Fuck Him!

[tek1024]

DamosAbadon, even my Christian friends have said that, with the emphasis on "death" instead of "Christian". Hey, here's an opportunity to broaden your horizons! ;)

One of the best bands ever. He Lives!

[elijahbam]

super cool!!! It reminds me of my childhood

[Mortificada]

maravilhosoooo!

[azraelscross]

ahh. a prime example where a christian band is actually good

[japp08]

Grooaaahhh!!! mortification RULES!!!

[DamosAbadon]

Bleeaaacchhhhhhh!!!!!!!! MortifiGAYtion SUCKS!!!!!!!!!! What the fuck could be more absurd than "christian" Death Metal?! Anyone who likes this shit needs to have their fucking head examined! FUCK THIS SHIT! HAIL SATAN!!!!!

[Malachi01]

GO TO HELL AND LET SATAN FUCK YOU...ASSHOLE!!

[DamosAbadon]

Maybe LORD SATAN can FUCK YOU, faggot!! & Your mother!

[drakgrotta]

your lord satan has lied to you for so long, he have used every way he can think of to keep you from the trouth. The victroy is already wone by Jesus, satan knows that hes doom is near but he tries to take as many he can to the grave, dont follow him! you are blind by bondage from demons but God WILL free you if you return to him, my brother

[metaldeath666]

JAJAJA DAMOSABADON YOU MAKE ME LAUGT WHIT YOUR ASSHOLE ACTITUDE OF "HAIL SATAN" IF HE APEARS TO YOU NOW YOU PROBALY SHIT ONYOU

[LiteracyLabyrinth]

Scrolls is their best CD and this is extremely brutal - one of their fastest - awesome

[onab]

Nuclear blast the "Scrolls video" on their compilation "Death is just the beginning" i remember the excitement i had when i saw that for the first time i havent seen it in years. i was wondering if this was even the same one . i just remember they had a video for it.

[joejumps4fun]

Awesome! I wonder if they have a video for "Nocturnal", "Overseer" or "Martyrs" - would very much like to see! Check out my video... Peace!
