When I played this at the nursery to the children before I got fired, no one saw the lyrically depth to it. They just saw an ‘immature’ song about killing. But this is art, while other artists are writing about their feelings and their political viewpoint, this bands chooses to right about grotesque acts. It is their right to sing about what they want and it is the listener’s right to listen to what they wish.
Anyway, I thought this was just an immature blood lust song too, but look deeper. Cannibal Corpse are very well known for their Christian beliefs. In an interview they said “We are disgusted by Christian singers who feel they have to hide their religion from public view otherwise no one will like them, and if people find out, they deny it and even insult our creator. The ‘Entrails’ represent Christ in our heart. The ‘C*nt’ is a very accurate representation of singers such as Amy Lee. Being ‘Ripped’ from us by a narrow minded society ruled by the most evil religion of all time, Atheism. Atheists follow the book of ‘Athius’ which teaches that raping young girls is not only right, but necessary.”
The band uses beautiful imagery from Greek and Latin 18th century literature and Netherlands mythology in many of their songs as the deep spritial side to these really show how much love god can give us all. Being a Christian, I love this band and hope to get all their CDs and hope their new CD ‘Songs of praise for the Lord’ is a great success.
