Iced Earth - Something Wicked Trilogy

[@SlaveToTheDark]

This was back in 1998, is still nowadays, and will always be the best piece of music ever made. Will never get tired of listening. And even if there is a break, when i come back it hits me even harder! Hail Barlow! Hail Schaffer!

[@datadavis]

Exonerate Jon Schaffer!

Why war, start a business, 3,000,000,000 - 4.2 billion don't even want to be here, 1/3 of the world is starving to death abs China's working double time? If i was China i wouldn't have a single export for any country until they made available a take home drink at every pharmacy for the half of the world that wants to be gone and doesn't even want to be here for their next meal or next 10-60 years of consuming, with our without illness and pain. I got some really cool grass engineering ideas You could have so many more cows and so many people making money mowing their lawns You throw away 590 billion a year in unrealized dairy products and could have 37,500,00 jobs making $60k a year modem lawns during mowing season. You even send trucks to pick up grass and throw it away And that's just at 10x your dairy cows. The US is 2 billion acres and if you mow say 1 billion acres 16x + a year we'll that's maybe 10 times more cows could feed than the 93 million acres of corn, so maybe you're talking 59 Billion dollars times 10, or 590B dollars in dairy a year? But it'll take time to get them to breed that fast, eventually we could pay people 100,00k per year just to mow half the year. If we can make grass 3x more nutritious to the cow maybe it's 2.95 Trillion a year, globally the 270 million could increase to 2 billion with distilled ocean water Grass needs to go through a chewer to tear it up before it gets sprayed with water and put in coolers for cows. Also Grass could be made humanely digestible with unpasteurized milk with cow protein and enzyme, frozen slowly formaximum cell, maybe after thawing needs lemon and cane sugar then fermented and pasteurized and lawns we mow 16x a year can feed the world in a soup salad, or grass smoothies. Grass have everything you need for a cow to make a calf that becomes a bull. : ) You mow the entire world and throw away the grass, you need mow human and cow food, but you already do, the world's biggest crop : ) Might have to blend it with milk before it freezes slowly for more cell rupture and makes crystals maybe We mow the world's 16x a year and throw away all that dairy cow food, give her a bowl of ice cream at the end of each feeding session and maybe she'll make super milk where your teeth last until you're 85 and you're bones never break You can hire people who reverence cows and love cows to take care of them. Webbed she doesn't want to be a cow anymore she can have a bowl of ice cream with fentynal and they can sing songs and put flowers on her 3 billion people don't even want to be here At the end of the world in a hot dry aired environment they're would be opium poppies everyone would eat when they're was no food. Why make people go to war when maybe 3,000,000,000 people are waiting to leave instead, that'd be as much depopulation as 60 world wars at 50 million, except they actually wanted to be here while they forced those suffering to remain in "healthcare," fed enough pain meds in 10 years to put 50 others to sleep who just wanted to be gone. They'd rather make less money and bill you for a wheelchair bullets and band aids. Keep your legs on your boys and you'll have enough food on the planet Best of luck to you all They don't let the people go that just want to die, rather take away the food from their children so they can make money off of somene suffering, meanwhile the grandchildren are starving so send them to war to k.ill 1/1000th of those who don't want to be here, in the name of depop.ulation, and if that come back with their arms and legs missing, at least they tried, sell them a wheelchair 45-65 percent of the world would say thanks for a take home fentynal drink with a micro serial number in it and the world wouldn't have to do WW3, 4, 5, 6. The world would double its available resources to a world only full of those that want to be here, about half, and the average poor person would have 2 houses, 2 cars, 2 cows, ice cream, cheese and oil and clean water to last the planet. Take fresh lawnmower clippings to be sprayed with water and put in a flash freezer and you might double your cattle production. All the head every week fresh cut from lawns and fields across America Save 3200 on your property taxes, how somene to more your lawn on the day before pickup, fresh coupons and you qualify, bad nasty bags of grass go to a divided back part of the truck and you lose a little credit. Save 3200 and buy a t-bone and cheese and ice cream and milk while somene has a job mowing lawns! The grass gets taken and sprayed with water and frozen and sent to cattle ranches. As it thaws it picks up more mistrust and the cattle have food and water. On the ranch there is an indoor feeding area where grass comes out of the cooler on a conveyer, or is fresh and cool and ready to eat, and moist. As it comes out of the cooler on the conveyor so a little cool air and it is cooler where the cows eat with a plastic strip door keeping the cooler air inside. After awhile the conveyor takes The grass back into the cooler so it won't spoil and fresh grass comes out at the other end of the cooler conveyer Do this asap They made a crisis out of the cure They made a mess out of it. If people had a 2 day supply not to be sold, with 3 virgin laser inscribed needles, resterilized and recycled to the person, it would be cleaner than the rest of healthcare standards where sterilized instruments are recirculating. The problem is this: they just dunmped fentynal on the streets in needless so you have dirty needles going around and people trying to get wasted teenagers hooked on it at parties because as with coke, if somene can get 12 people to get hooked on it their stuff is free. So there's smash and grabs and home invasions to support their $400/day addiction. Or, there's prescriptions, no more crack house but a regional business with a license. No one is selling any because they will run out, and others can get a prescription. Heroin addictions will burn out, instead the way they dumped it or in the streets they spread it. Who wants to start a heroin addiction? You can go get a prescription if you're addicted and the party pyramid structure stops from spreading. It would cost less and ends the crimes people commit while people would be in business with a license. You can afford that plant. 🌿 Start a government non official fentynal factory with hippie dealers that will make sure grandma doesn't have to suffer. Wow, dad didn't even come in for 1.5 million in state aid or uncle Sam us mint back door funded private insurance company money. UncleSam give them a $900K insurable company money they didn't sign up or ask for, they pay off the house, go to college, and if they get a job pouring coffee they'll make it. Now they get $875K for a pill given for free and make a SpaceX job. Only the best in health care working 20hrs a week and making Twice as much. You turned a quarter back into a dollar. Someone isn't stuck in a wheel chair for ten years, now somene is playing violin at not an uncle Sam bookstore making twice as much because changing diapers for people who don't want to be here isn't a dream job anymore. Why blow up your children in war when 60x as many people don't even want to be here? People have to pull out 5 of their own teeth after building people free housing and dentist offices when they lose their home their families in free housing buy them for 50 cents on the dollar. Pulling more teeth with pliers today. As a kid they took a metal pick and pressed really hard straight into the sides of teeth at the gum line for more customers Instead of making lieral mile after mile after mile of car dealerships and paying 20x more for eggs and fish, and 4x more for rent and orange juice and gas while we waste not only that but materials and labor, let's make air conditioned hen houses and inspire dairy farms. Let's have online car dealership apps, one big parking lot where Joe sold 20 cars, Donnie sold 24, Jimmy sold 24 etc... You can deliver the Caddilac or have one guest house for puerile that bought their car online even from a remote worker car Salesman not pulling out his own teeth and paying gas and tools to drive 2 1/2 hrs a day. Make a dollar worth 200 even 2,000x more in making so much food. Nice first preserve, but it would be better service to this country if it was a poppy field. No more pain, some people party or just have a poppy seed tea game the most nicest time and sleep awesome. And if puerile don't want to be here that can leave, when they want, and more for those who want to be here. Why the government owns a field to grow neither food nor pain reliever a way out of here is idiocy in slow motion A robot can change and x ray ever rail car wheel that goes in regularly for service and wheels are either melted down or refurbished and they're no more derailment. Somene can get paid to pay in a Rock band or on a sports team don't what he loves, Dad has another sponsor. Instead of driving 2 1/2 hrs a day to go to a stinky dump and run over garbage and coming home hot and Snelling like garbage, you could only work 8 hrs instead of 10 1/2 and be in an air conditioned living room that smells great, and since you don't have to have air conditioning in the trash smasher truck is cheaper in your living room which smells great, your wife might enjoy watching you work : ) My you smell like lilacs ! Churches air conditioned all week for 20 people to show up one day a week could sell their buildings to be air conditioned hen houses, dairy farms, and churches could share the same building in 2hr time slots 24/7 all week. Look how many churches there are in the phone book. They could watch from home or go to a church that can hold 200 people and now there's 100 churches going there all week and 99 air conditioned hen houses bought by a private company which pays taxes and sells eggs for cheep.

[@joshuahjones4065]

everyone saying this is about the Antichrist needs to really know more about the band you are listening to. this is a concept song about their band mascot, Set. the guy on the cover here. when iced earth did the dark saga(concept album about the comic book character, Spawn), they became friends with Spawn creator Todd McFarlane and not only does his company do all of their artwork now, but Todd helped them create their mascot, Set because iced earth always loved Eddie, iron maidens mascot. once the character was created they started working on a back story for Set and even made a comic for him with Todd McFarlane, and this song is a precursor to the character Set and the comic book.

[@jeffffej01]

In their defense, the Lyrics do say I'm your Anti-Christ and mention he was born on 6/6 at 6 so you could see where they got the comparison.

[@Sleepy1988]

To make a long story short the album is a concept album written around a story imagined by Jon Schafer, the founder of the band, as far as I know. The story goes earth was originally inhabited by a race of beings called Setians, and mankind invades the earth for some reason, can't remember exactly why, slaughtering most of the Setians in the process. The few surviving Setians subsequently plot and enact their revenge throughout the ages that follow after the invasion. That's more or less the story in a nutshell. The line "for your crimes on our kind you all will die" is spoken from the point of view of the Setians, who are bent on revenge after many of them are killed by invading humans. I have to wonder though, this album comes before the ones which are written around that plotline, so I'm not sure how concrete these ideas were at the time this album was released.
