The Snark was formed in late 1996 in Perm-city, by three school friends, as a punk-rock band. At period since 1996-1999 in band played many musicians of the different level and 1998 was a recorded demo under name "For Mirror Dream", sustained in post-punk key. By spring of 1999 we changed the guitar and keys player. In 2000 recording demo from 3 songs in doom/black atmosphere with funereal keys, clear feminine and black male vocals. On length of this time quintet actively acts in Perm and in other cities. In the period since November 2001 till March 2002 we sat in R-Line studio and were recording our first album "…for Demon". From this moment group is renamed on "Act Of God". And in April in the club "Hunter" there was a presentation of an album "…for Demon". The stylistics were changed. Music becomes more rigid and more aggressive. During 1999-2003 there were a lot concerts with such group as "Warhead", "Alkonost", "Atoll Nerat", "Grenouer", "Sinful", "Tintagel", "Miscreant" and many others. In December of 2002 there comes time to part with Dennis "Dan" Chudinov - bass (one of the founders) and have found bass - Alexander Andreev (Groth, Inside Decay, Fermented Corps) and now all vocal perform by Victoria.
The Beast in My Soul
Act of God Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Prepare to death
Evil was settled in my soul
The beast was settled
He requires the blood
And pain and suffering
I am a stinger infernal hive
The wave of the dark ocean
The creed justice promised by devotion
Curse you in your weaknesses
My hate shocks cattle
Destroying everything on its way
Filling heaven with the ash of the battle
My evil is my place in this world
Weak must be destroyed
Contagious die in disgrace
Slave will serve
The lyrics to Act of God's song "The Beast in My Soul" depict a personification of evil as a powerful and destructive force that has taken root in the singer's soul. The metaphor of a "careless herd" preparing for death suggests that the singer sees human beings as passive and vulnerable to evil, and that he has embraced this darkness as a way to assert control and power over others. The repeated use of violent imagery - requiring blood, pain and suffering, cursing weakness, destroying everything in its path - emphasizes the overwhelming and destructive nature of the singer's evil.
The singer seems to revel in his role as a harbinger of death and destruction, celebrating himself as a "stinger infernal hive" that destroys life and unleashes waves of darkness and chaos. He justifies his actions as part of a moral crusade, a "creed justice promised by devotion", but the language of conquest and destruction suggests that his ultimate goal is domination and power. The ideal audience for this song would likely be those people who feel powerless in the face of societal injustices and seek an outlet for their rage and frustration.

Isaiah, I know this was a year ago but I pray God shows you this message . Thank you for choosing God, he loves you and your a holy vessel for the most holy . That video gave me great fright for that boy ! But I looked at all the young people that followed him while he was talking it's scary that all these young people can be deceived. Mass deliverance!!! God said Mass Deliverance you know !! In Jesus mighty name I pray. Amen

What is the benefit of gaining the whole world if you lose your soul people worry about now how about eternity afterwards you're only here for a Moment In Time Eternity is way longer and that's what you should be driving for to make sure that you're in heaven with Jesus Christ the good thing is that you can't sell your soul to saying because your soul is Jesus's and your heavenly father so you could always tell Satan never mind

This is exactly why people are turning to alternatives to religion. There’s never a “let’s help people” without a way of getting money out of them. You ask for the same thing that the people selling their souls are asking for.
The church is equivocally at fault in their complacency for losing people.

@Jason Ryan The soul belongs to God to be judged it’s not ours to sell

And what do you benefit if you gain the whole world but lose your own soul? Is anything worth more than your soul?
