    If I recall correctly, they did an interview with AP or Metal Hammer back in the 00’s explaining that they weren’t a Christian band, they just liked how brutal the story of Cane and Abel was from the Bible and used it as a framing device.

    Correct me if I’m wrong, though; I haven’t looked them up in over a decade.

      Political conservative victimism is a recurring theme in their lyrics. It’s pretty cringey, but those guitar licks are crazy.
