There's nothing wrong with religion, nothing wrong with believing in something. Just with those who misconstrue the messages and teachings therein..
basement torment upraw the devils influence devils influence the basement
Simply metal. Heavy metal.
Vocals-Andre Guitar-Jason Bass-Mike Drums-Karl A four-piece metal band that is synonimous with heavy. They write music according to what they feel which, for the most part, is anger and rage, and fill the void with their own experiences and views of the world. Each song is different from the last, always adding more and more of the personality which makes up the quartet.

Story behind the song
A combination of so-called crusades and martyrdom in the name of organised religion, the speed and lack of reluctance of people to hurt each other, and a film in which a heavily religious person punishes his children by locking them in the basement is what inspired the creation of this song.
Lyrics
The Basement V1 When I was just a little boy I looked around and wondered why This seems like normal curiosity But you don’t know, I wondered why I’m living Ever since I was child I remember my daddy went wild Whenever I would question his beliefs He took off his belt and threw me in the basement Chorus Father, I know not the wrong I do, It’s so dark in the basement Why do you do it? I’m just a child, Something’s waiting in the basement Human beings are so fragile, Anything but the basement Pray for me in my time of need, for in the basement I must repent V2 From the day that I was born I wondered why the world was wartorn So much hate and furiosity Are people angry at me, do they hate me? I remember when I was young I asked my daddy, "why doesn’t God come?" He tore me up, I was a mess But at least he didn’t cast me in the basement Chorus Father, why do you just look down, It’s so dark in the basement Why don’t you hear me, am I not your child? Something’s waiting in the basement All my prayers are so futile, Anything but the basement Pray for you, you need it more, for in the basement I will forget Last verse Why do you kill each other in the name of a God that you can’t see? You’re just a human you can’t help but kill your own and push the blame on a deity It’s not like someone or something makes you do this, you do it yourself of your own free will No more excuses, it’s time to stand up and admit your flaw You’re headed for a fall We’re all headed for a fall
