This song is biblical af. I love it. The story of the wh**e of babel. The ancient city of Babylon. This is what made me first fall in love with A7X. The songs were always so intricate and intelligent

A lot of people have no clue this song comes from revelations in the Bible.
@jcgmusic162 ай бұрын
Yes and nope. Babylon the great is not the old Babel, it's all the false religions together, also called The Harlot. The beast is where she sits on and it represents the political global organizations. According to Revelations in the Bible, The Harlot (Babylon the great, The religions) will come mounted on The Beast (The Politics), The Beast suddenly would attack her and eat her, meaning that the politic governments around the world will sooner or later attack the "false" religions around the world destroying them forever.

There's a lot of Christian and Hebrew apocalyptic iconography in A7X songs. The main woman in the video is a personification for Babylon the Great, which is referenced in the earlier chorus. Shes also referred to as the Whore of Babylon and the Mother of Harlots and Abominations, hence being called the Harlot and the abominations she turns people into, which also informs the dwelling place for demons line. The Beast being referenced is actually three beings; one is the beast with 7 heads and 10 horns that Babylon sat upon in Revelation as she seduced the Kings of Man, called the Beast of the Sea, which in Revelation is the Anti-Christ. The second Beast being referenced is Beast of the Land, represented by the one band member as he directs the Harlot to corrupting certain individuals, while the lead singer is the Dragon, the one empowering them to corrupt those decided. Another interesting thing to notice is the sins associated with the people turned in the video: the first girl is the only one who looks happy about the contract, most likely because it means money, alluding to the deadly sin of Greed, the man in the bar is behaving erratically and violently, meaning Wrath, the young boy is more on the nose as lust, the dancer near the end is most likely pride due to how confidently she shows her body. Missing a few of the 7 Deadly Sins, but just sometbing i thought of years ago
@martinwhite35592 ай бұрын
Next has to be Bat Country. It's their signature song. Hail to the King, The Stage and MIA are great too. They are not emo but got labled as such due to this video and get a lot of hatred. Vampires and emo are different things. I think this album has themes relating to the book Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas.

It's just biblical imagery made metal, nothing crazy. Even their name, Avenged Sevenfold is from Genesis regarding Cain killing Abel and God saying something to the effect of "Abel will have vengeance sevenfold." (Their song Chapter 4 from Waking The Fallen is exactly about Cain killing Abel and his journey for penance from God for his sin of murder).Their debut album name, Sounding The Seventh Trumpet, is a reference to Exodus and the End Times where trumpets will sound from the heavens and signify the end times. "And All Things Will End", the last song on WTF, is another reference to Exodus.
