Single Out Atheist Week: Day One
. "Second to Sun"- The opening sequence in this tune and the riff that follows were written pretty much first on this new album. And they were a bit of an indicator to myself and Steve Flynn of things to come. There was a familiarity, as well as freshness to the riffing and drumming in this tune. One of the most exciting and explosive moments we have ever had a s a band in my opinion is the break in the middle, it's a collective of a strong lyric "And belief split to 4 like a cross on the floor it split front, from back, and side, from side like a cross, they called it God, I say the Sun" coupled with a brutally building guitar part and a reverse drum roll that brings everything into a complete hammer to head aural experience in that moment. Lyrically it is symbolic in some sense of the new style of writing and placing my vocals. This time around I was able to do things knowing I did not have to sing and play it at the same time, and that did lead to me trying to place things a bit differently. Hearing is believing.
