To me the stage name and the chords of the songs are related but I am not sure exactly how to talk about it. But coming up Interstate 35 I felt it. In the total dark of the highway in Kansas I could feel the chords in my body. Most of the time when you listen to Morbid Angel it is hard to say whether they feel the rock-and-roll feeling for the music they’re playing because the normal beats and chords and singing aren’t there. Like, you would have a hard time imagining people listening to this music and saying “oh yes those were the good old days.” That is what I mean by the rock and roll feeling. But if you hear Morbid Angel in the right way, then you know they are actually the most rocking band since maybe the Beatles! The song I recommend is “Ageless, Still I Am” which is about some god or something who will never die and he is way out in space I think. Sometimes it is hard to make sense of Morbid Angel’s lyrics but they are always in some way about space or monsters or demons or people who are suffering. When you put that together with the huge chords that don’t sound like chords you know and the four-times-the-rhythm deal of the drummer, then you know that you are hearing something special and what is more you feel it way down in your soul, in a scary but cool way.
