Pariah is a two-man acoustic duo that dishes out music at the purest level in its rawest form. With nothing else other than clean vocals and a dependable acoustic guitar, songs are written, composed and recorded in less than 30 minutes at a time. The creative process is indeed something really interesting - somehow, the lyrics and the riffs that were made during the session itself seem to mesh well once combined to form the new core of a track. The first album was finished in about 10 sessions done during the late Saturday nights between August 8 and December 5 of last year (2003). Twelve tracks were written and almost 400 minutes worth of music was recorded. Recording and composing for the second album during the 'holy' week of 2004 and three songs have been made so far (Let the Wound Fester being one of them).

Story behind the song
Maat is a member of the Egyptian Family of Dieties. She is often depicted in illustrations as a animal-headed humanoid who holds a large feather. According to myth, the hearts of the recently deceased are weighed against the feather that Maat is holding. Should the heart be heavier than the feather, the soul of the owner of the heart will be damned to the underworld to spend eternity with Osiris. If the opposite happen, the owner of the heart is allowed to board Amon-Ra's ship (the sun) as it sails through the sky all through out the day.
Lyrics
Trying to measure up my line its been a while since I did The feather is heavy on your side atheism is my crime you have more sins than i you just played the liar Your heart is heavier than thine your faults outweigh my crime your faith cant save you when you lie
