This is just too much. Not only is it one of the worst death metal songs in all of history, but the lyrics are word-for-word from Revelation, somehow making it even worse.
Enjoy!

That was God-awful. I couldn’t quite work out what all that noise was in the background, though.
At least “The number of the beast” from Iron Maiden had some melodic/artistic touch.
“The Number of the Beast” is sweet.
Every time I come across Revelation, I wonder what St John was on when he wrote it. I’ve been to Patmos, it would drive a saint mad, but I never found anything there that was THAT trippy.
I can’t see the video at work, who is it??? I went through a death metal phase in the early 90s, some of it is very bad, but some is good.
Imagine the worst of the worst of what you remember. Not even close.
It’s even worse than that.
IMPO, not any worse than most metal. What could be scarier/more hard-core than F’ing Relevation? If you want to be intimidating, that is some scary shit.
Respectfully, Iron Maiden is not a death metal band. Comparitively speaking their lyrics are better than many in pop metal and songs include subjects like the Battle of Britain (Aces High), Charge of the Light Brigade (The Trooper), and Rhyme of the Ancient Mariner (that Coleridge piece).
Agreed. Iron Maiden are awesome. Oddly the song “Number of the Beast” is sort of about the movie “The Omen”, and the dream it caused its author to have. Also, they have an excellent song called “Revelation” which deals with Egyptian themes rather than the bible.
OK, that’s not Death Metal. Not even close, it might not even be metal. I hear harmonica in there for Pete’s sake. This is Death Metal. You can tell because the lyrics are largely unintelligible.

Yes, now that is death metal! With the Jack Owen lineup, Pat is better though. CC rules.
I concur! Whatever that was was not death metal or metal. I think they stole an mp3 (or midi file) from somewhere and read the words using their “big boy” voice. To add insult, they were using a bad mic. :)
My taste of music is fairly wide, including metal of various weights and colors, but that is a sad attempt at anything.
“Cyberband” should do the world a favour and consider NOT reading the instructions on a bottle found in the Inductrial Cleaners isle of the closest hardware shop, and DRINK THE CONTENT!!!
What…?
That’s supposed to be music?
