|
No, this song doesn't have anything to do with Satan. It is about the Great Old One Cthulhu. Elements that confirm this: 1. The Lord below is *sleeping*, and the cultists wish he could rise from his eternal sleep - Satan, in christian mythology, is not sleeping, he's active 2. He has beeing sleeping for vast *aeons* - a word frequently used by H.P. Lovecraft in his short stories 3. He stains this planet with *visions of murder and hate* - Cthulhu, in the short stories, drive many people all over the world insane through dreams 4. *Sea* soaked perversion - confirms he inhabits the ocean, unlike Satan who inhabits Hell 5. *We pray for the earth to open, free you of your ageless tomb* - this confirms the Lord Below inhabits the Earth *physically*, unlike Satan who, according to christian mythology, is in Hell, which is not a physical place on Earth. Cthulhu lies trapped in his pacific sunken city of R'lyeh 6. And last - *Oh, Great Old One, I scream your return* - Cthulhu *is* a Great Old One, perhaps the most powerful of them, he's a priest of Azathoth. |
