Cover art for New Religion lyrics by Black Label Society

For me, New Religion has always represented an all consuming, new passion for another person. The lyrics portray sexual and emotional fire, lust, and an obsession--even when the targeted person does not reciprocate those same emotions: "Forsake me; Its you that I serve." Perhaps Zakk wrote about a fanatical...fan?
