Morbid Angel are one of the pioneering bands in death metal. If you don't know who they are, then you should probably stick to bands like Korn and Slipknot. Of course, they never reached the same level of mainstream success as those bands, but that's what happens when you refuse to let record labels strip your artistic integrity in favor of a broader audience. The breakdown riff towards the beginning of Ball Tongue sounds almost identical to the chorus of Angel of Disease. Again, could be a coincidence, but no-one really cares. Now for some trivia; Faget and Ball Tongue were originally part of the same untitled song, written some time before the first Korn demo was released. It was later split into two separate songs and changed slightly, but this is how the original demo version was going to sound. "Again and again I wonder why You deny me An average life You don't even try Your power doesn't make you immortal Can't you open your mind Try not to be so judgmental Talk to me and you'll see But you won't you just laugh at me I know that you're scared, afraid of me I'm too strange You won't give me a chance, never did Nothing's changed I tried to talk to you But you keep on playing games Thinking you're better than me I guess things never change Here I am alone With no hope of ever having Something to be proud of Something earned without begging Look, I am a person I have feelings too you see Who do you think you are What makes you think you can judge me?" |

There are a few mistakes with these lyrics, though I do like the interpretation. "Make a street round surround her" should be "make a straight round surrender". "Face the round" should be "faces around". "That it'll be" should be "let it be". |

For those who think the second half of the lyrics are accurate, just take a listen to some of their live recordings back when they used to still play this track. There's definitely nothing consistent or coherent there, he's just making up sounds similar to the track "Twist". On a side-note, this track completely steals from the Morbid Angel track, Angel of Disease. It may have been purely accidental, though it seems like too much of a coincidence. |

| KoЯn – Evolution Lyrics | 15 years ago |

I'm not a huge fan of this song, but I'd like to point out some basic information for the uneducated lamen posting here. Evolution has nothing to do with the existence of a "god" and it would still remain an undeniable fact even if there was one. The process which involves "life from non-life" is something completely different called abiogenesis. A theory is not just some unsubstantiated idea someone thought up. First you have to start out with a hypothesis. A hypothesis has to be a specific, testable prediction, which means things like "god did it" and "creationism" don't count. Once the hypothesis has facts, laws and predictions to back it up, it is then promoted to a theory. It is a fact that evolution happens; that biodiversity and complexity does increase, that both occur naturally only by evolutionary means. It is a fact that alleles vary with increasing distinction in reproductive populations and that these are accelerated in genetically isolated groups. It is a fact that natural selection, sexual selection and genetic drift have all been proven to have predictable effect in guiding this variance. It is a fact that significant beneficial mutations do occur and are inherited by descendant groups and that multiple independent sets of biological markers exist to trace these lineages backwards over many generations. It is a fact that birds are a subset of dinosaurs the same way humans are a subset of apes, primates, eutherian mammals and vertebrate deuterostome animals. It is a fact that the collective genome of all animals has been traced to its most basal form and that those forms are also indicated by comparative morphology, physiology and embryological development. It is a fact that everything on earth has definite relatives either living nearby or evident in the fossil record. It is a fact that the fossil record holds hundreds of definitely transitional species even according to it's strictest definition and that both microevolution and macroevolution have been directly-observed. Evolution is a fact. The "theory of evolution" explains why it is a fact. |
