What if it’s God who’s fed up with religion?
Here God’s troubles with his people begin. He looks down and finds they have invented something called religion. It bears his name and has nothing of him in it: sacred texts and collection plates, crowns of gold and thrones of lies, fear to feed on — and mad things done, supposedly, for his sake. He doesn’t like any of it.
“Fuck Religion” is sung by God, not by some human rebel, and some of the lines show it: where it sings “my,” that “my” is God’s.
Musically it was almost a hundred percent inspired by The Exploited, one of my favorite bands of my late teens, and I really wanted to get across that reckless energy. Wattie Buchan, their singer, would hardly be pleased at the thought that AI songs are being written on his energy.
