The only thing better than this I've seen was in an old issue of Metal Maniacs in 1994, when a writer named Per Mollach sent a letter to the editor claiming he'd discovered multiple chicken references in Deicide's lyrics. For excample, he pointed out, on the first track of Legion: "Evil thing... A CHI-CKEN!!" Stuff like that. I never paid much attention to the lyrics but now that I do, Jesus Christ man, they ARE a bit hard to unravel, aren't they?Diplo-Metalerohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18259645151939390462noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6645554669355760340.post-14648899893841241882010-11-02T18:20:29.483-07:002010-11-02T18:20:29.483-07:00I think its possible that Glen Benton may have bee...I think its possible that Glen Benton may have been influenced by another magician of the English language: The Ultimate Warrior.

I learned that first verse of Holy Deception when I was 14 and not so English proficient, never considered how decorrect it were. this adds many dimensions to his work, really. all the fuss and shock just gets in the way for what might be a literary genius (in DM proportions i.e.). thanks a gazillionth times for this!<br />(and to Glen for, with id software, shedding light on the poopdemon.)Andreas Derangednoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6645554669355760340.post-88677910635497259672010-02-13T11:47:57.354-08:002010-02-13T11:47:57.354-08:00great dissection(or perhaps in Bentian language Di...great dissection(or perhaps in Bentian language Dissectication?)of Glen's truly unique twist's on the english language.

I pretty much made up my own lyrics for deicide until a couple years ago, but when I finally read Benton's words it was a huge eye-opener.
