When talking about the Rock Opera Jesus Christ Superstar, I find quite interesting the character of Judas Iscariot and especially the reason for why he betrayed Jesus. As far as I remember, there's no such an explanation in The Bible, except from, I'd say, it was predestinated for Jesus to become something like a martyr.

When Prog Folk is filmed inside a church and comes complete with a church organ, a celestial choir and a vicar in his ecclesiastical robes, that's when you know these guys are serious about their religion. Smile

That is an idea I can imagine better concerning the Jewish than the Christian God, and with the purpose to try the humans, but anyway, it's not like I'm very happy with God, even I much prefer the Christian one over the Jewish.

Milton fan! Paradise Lost has one of the most memorable lines in all of literature.

Agree.  By the way, I first heard it in Star Trek in the "Space Seed" episode with Khan.  It featured real Corinthian leather (oh, that dates me).


Haha! I love TOS (and The Wrath of Khan, of course).

Wovenhand's entire discography. Consider the Birds and Mosaic are my two favorite albums. It's basically all fire and brimstone, and darker than most "satanic bands". That's why I like it.

...Listen
Judgment will not be avoided by your unbelief 
By your lack of fear 
Nor by your prayers to any little idol here 
He owns all those cattle 
He owns all these hills 
Forever round the throne yeah 
Forever round the throne 
Forever round the throne yeah 
Crow eye come see 
Crow eye come see 
The lord will not be mocked 
Not by you or me...



This song is about Jesus. As with many non-english 1970's bands that chose to sing in english, the lyrics are pretty basic. But I just love it as a great, driving heavy prog song

When it comes to rock generally, Satan rules.

John Milton's Paradise Lost has been very inspirational.  And the Omen over the Ten Commandments for me.

When it comes to the "son of God", of course Jesus Christ Superstar is great, as is AD/BC: A Rock Opera.


Maybe we could do a Revelations: Christ vs. Antichrist in Music topic.

Thank you. I've seen people respond to my religion snark with preachy lessons all the time to the point I'm used to reacting that way.


Still, your account at GodBank may be overdrawn. But due to the holiday weekend, the system won't fully update till Monday.
