Infernalis

about

This song is about the Monty Hall paradox and the end of the world. It also introduces a fictional character named the Minister of Funk, a randy afroed minister who preaches the virtues of funk and getting down. In this song he foresees the inevitable end of the world brought about through a nuclear apocalypse and believes that the best way to deal with this is to write nonsense rhymes, party and boogie on down.

The song is musically inspired by earth shattering beats of The Prodigy and strangely enough, the Egyptian themed music of Nile, although the song ends up sounding more Latin American than anything else. Electric Six was also a major influence. In the first stages of the album I wanted to introduce rap music into mix having been totally amazed by lyrical dexterity of ICE T's early albums, in particular The Iceberg, so while this song is not directly influenced by his music, it’s an indirect outcome of that early intention.

lyrics

Goats or cars, you could get far

Make the switch and strike it rich

Fight the war, settle the score

Militant moves, nuke the dancefloor

Indoctrinate them to build a new Rome

Rule the world with a microphone

Witness the beauty of a cosmic membrane

Travel to it on a tank of methane

Its the future I see,

See with clarity

So I ask of thee

to get down and get funky!

It is the future that I see

So ask of thee

to get down and get funky yeah!

You desire an empire

Through the dust in madness we trust

Parasites on the political scene

Rely on war to maintain the machine

Party like its 99,

In nuclear bunkers, have a good time

Eat a buritto, with a taco,

Lets set the world on fire yo!

Its the future I see,

See with clarity

So I command thee

to get down and get funky!
