Here’s a link to a song i posted relating to what we’ve been talking about in the Book of Revelations. As a fan of Heavy Metal, its not hard at all to find songs such as these. And this one struck me as a page right out of Revelations.
Lyrics:
The time has come, the end is near
A fire storm
The curse is done, my search is over
The altar of souls
Don’t wanna be the one to live in fear
Seven angels getting near
Don’t wanna be the one, get out of here
With moonlight’s calling
The final day the sky will fall down
And we might all drown
And seven seals will break
The final day will end in sorrow
There’s no tomorrow
The seven seals will break
From peace tough death, holy and true
The noise of thunder
The skies of Hell unfell to Earth
Another wonder
Don’t wanna be the one to live in fear
Seven angels getting near
Don’t wanna be the one, get out of here
With moonlight’s calling
The final day the sky will fall down
And we might all drown
If seven seals will break
The final day will end in sorrow
As no tomorrow
If seven seals will break
The final day the sky will fall down
And we might all drown
If seven seals will break
The final day will end in sorrow
There’s no tomorrow
If seven seals will break
The final day the sky will fall down
And we might all drown
If seven seals will break
The final day will end in sorrow
There’s no tomorrow
If seven seals will break
If there’s anything that fires up my Apocalyptic imagination, its Heavy Metal culture. Replete with many many references from the Book of Revelations, or just general notions introduced within apocalyptic beliefs of antiquity. Iron Maiden’s “Number of the Beast” being a very prime example. Also, this particular album art:
This album deals with notions of the Antichrist. As you can see in the image, we have a depiction of the Antichrist (as a warrior) destroying the world.
