I thought the atheists in this forum would like this band, they have some interesting religious views and are on the top of my list in fave bands. http://www.darklyrics.com/n/nevermore.html

Some of the lyrics really got to me like

5. Deconstruction

"My perfect reflection swims

through the drowning pool. The sky is gone.

My world is in deconstruction"

The fallen that dreams suicide

Takes the needle, instead of the gun

The victim who self crucifies can't realize

Christ is a weapon that chisels at our lives

Deconstruction

The martyr takes his aim and wounds the holy man

And on the eighth day God made the art of war

And laughing planned the end

Who will tend the garden when the snake swallows the light?

Who will eat the decay when the worms have lost their sight?

Who will rape the weak when there's nothing left to gain?

Who will till the soil of these barren black remains?

Deconstruction, deconstruction

Who will lick my wounds when they take away my speech?

Will you stand in line while the shepherd hunts his sheep?

Could you see tomorrow if I took away your eyes?

Can you crawl from under new age prophecy's despise?

Deconstruction, deconstruction

[acoustic solo J.L.]

Deconstruct my reality and let me slip away, I am the dog

[solo T.C.]

Who will tend the garden when the snake swallows the light?

Who will eat the decay when the worms have lost their sight?

Who will rape the weak when there's nothing left to gain?

Who will till the soil of these barren black remains?

Deconstruction, deconstruction

Deconstruction, deconstruction

Our world is in deconstruction

Our world

Any reflections on this one?

Heres another one:

8. Poison Godmachine

"I know what it wants now...the void

has swallowed the light and the machine

wants my soul"

The media machine knows what to do

It knows how to feed the poison to you

Useless information for your useless little lives

The tv lies and pacifies

Do you believe everything you see?

Children of the void come follow me

Denounce your faith and penance the savior is unseen

I am the new drug, your poison godmachine....poison

Poison godmachine

Poison is a word, God is a word used for fear

[solo J.L.]

[solo T.C.]

In subtlety we obey through ink and broadcast wave

The doubts and fears that shadow media decay

Deprogram this affliction and the cathode ray unclean

I am the last nail, the empty soulless screen.....soulless

Poison godmachine

And we eat the poison, we created the poison godmachine

And who is timothy leary?

7. Timothy Leary

A wise man came across the sea

In search of LSD philosophy

With open heart and open mind

To find the goodness in mankind

Bare your soul and you're saved

Believe the chosen that dreams in rage

Chemicals improve the view

Visions now have bloomed in you

Windowpane is suffered bliss

A psychedelic kiss

Show to me your ideology

Do you perceive or are you sleeping?

Timothy Leary, where are you now

The world needs you, we're going down

In translation they used the key

Altered visions, Tao Teh Ching

Open sky to paint their dreams

And see as did Lao Tzu

Melt away all the hate and pain

Mission is clear, awake the dreaming

Go to sleep child, and dream

When Timothy Leary first started speaking out in the sixties people didn't understand what he was trying to say, some people

didn't want to understand him, the establishment wanted to kill him, they wanted to suppress him, squash him like a bug, we

always want to kill what we do not understand, all he was trying to say was that we need to realize our inner harmony, to see

things in a different way, to truly be free...

Electric religion

I'm sure theirs many more that are interesting but i dont feel its neccesary to post them all.

Nevermore will devour your soul.

You are unworthy to speak of them.

And shut the fuck up, you 'atheists' will like them? I guess 'atheists' will like other bands that say Jesus is t3h sux and God is a Jewish lie.

Nevermore owns.

Atheists don't need an anthem.

Nevermore rule of course, but I also enjoy Saviour Machine. The best christian metal band out there.

I think everyone can enjoy Nevermore, as they are one of the top 30 metal bands out there. I really enjoyed that song about Timothy Leary. The other one was just a generic "fuck Jesus in his bearded ass" song.
