Militant political industrial-psychedelic project from Doctor Oscify
Sonic Messiah is an industrial project done by while he attended high school in Fort Collins Colorado. Most of the songs on this site were recorded with a four track tape recorder, a guitar, and an inexpensive microphone, making this a pure DIY industrial pursuit. Although there is a possibility of a Sonic Messiah revival, currently Oscify is working on other projects and is too busy ot resume focus on this truly unique project.

Lyrics
Vanity controls our world, Our teeth are strait, our hair is curled Television and radio Keep progression nice and slow Heroin and coke for rockers The only news we see is shockers Information is the past, Media is fickle and crass Blow jobs for the president, Setting a nice precedent Of reporting shit that doesn’t matter, At the top of every ladder Lies a (white, Christian, presumably heterosexual) man who stepped on heads While consumers lay in bed Apathy and ignorance And greedy scams like insurance Fuck these trends that will not last Fuck the future, fuck the past Fuck these militaristic moves, Fuck hate, fuck chauvinistic views Fuck life and lust and intertwinement to this system Fuck confinement to an existence fraught with peril Fire the bullet, aim the arrow Into the belly of this beast On its innards we shall feast On 400 we shall baste This gruesome creature, try a taste A great feast, but at the cusp, its putridness envelops us Swallow pain that we’ve produced Freedom illusion is induced Knowledge keeps the beast at bay An exit is the only way Convey a message Find an exit Past this pool- this cesspool. 3 miles deep 400 feet wide You can’t fucking hide Find an exit My exit is you. Rebelling through a corporation Yes, this is a shitty nation Clairol hair dye, Nike boots My man Jordan scores, he shoots And I’m not talking about basketball I’m not talking about sports at all Sex is turned into a game With specific scores and time and place Brand new pants all leopard-spotted A punk-rock outfit from “Hot Topic” Image is above all else But not for the well being of the self All these things we’ve built will fall Courtrooms, houses, friendship, malls Girls with the sweetest breath, Cuticles and bones and flesh All of these things deteriorate There is no way to liberate For permanence does not exist Permanence is death and this Can be our ending point, A feeling in your elbow joint Break it off and plant your seed An exit is just what we need (chorus)
