Messiah (UK band):
Formed in 1988 during London's acid house craze by college friends Ali Ghani and Mark Davies, Messiah's brand of rave techno encompasses the aggression and volume of punk and the diva vocals of house music. When Ghani and Davies met at an Iggy Pop concert, the two decided to purchase some electronic equipment and make music for fun; when musical chemistry became evident, they began to get into the English techno and rave scene. After the release of 1993's Temple of Dreams, their first full-length U.S. album, 21st Century Jesus, was released one year later. Messiah Meets Progenitor followed in 1998 and saw a fairly dramatic shift in style. The introduction of guitars into the mix pushed their sound more towards that of Jesus Jones, Pop Will Eat Itself or later Prodigy.
Messiah (Swiss metal band):
Messiah is a death/thrash metal band from Switzerland. The band is best known for their first two full-length albums, Hymn to Abramelin and Extreme Cold Weather. Messiah's debut album, Hymn to Abramelin, was released in 1986 through Chainsaw Murder Records. Their sophomore LP, titled Extreme Cold Weather, came out in 1987 and was re-issued on CD three years later by Nuclear Blast. The release also contained the band's debut album. The band then managed to sign to a German major metal label, Noise Records, which released their next album, Choir of Horrors, in 1991. Messiah released two more albums, Rotten Perish and Underground, through Noise, but disbanded in the mid-1990's.
After a long break Messiah reunited, first to perform a few secret shows in 2017, but then decided to write new material in 2018, and released a new album in September 2020. Since 2018 also, they are back on stage and play live again. Their newest album Christus Hypercubus is set to be released on March 1, 2024.
Deformed Creatures
Messiah Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
We converse all the time
Humans born deformed
We avoid all of them
Your body's crippled, your face deformed
Your hand's mutilated, your skin's burnt
My body's well-shaped, my face is striking
I can't see in your eyes
Why don't you look at me?
You don't belong in our society
You belong in a closed sanatorium
I'm shocked by your body
You're angry at our refusal
I'm horrified by your face
You're infurious at our inequity
All dreadful beings are creations of god
God has decided you'll live as a clod
God has decided, ill or healthy
He forgot justice
Was this the life you wished for
Spending your life in a closed sanatorium
The lyrics of Messiah's song "Deformed Creatures" explore society's treatment towards individuals who are born with physical deformities. The song highlights the stark contrast in how society interacts with healthy people versus deformed people. The lyrics suggest that healthy people engage in conversation with one another, while they avoid interacting with deformed individuals. It is seen as if deformed individuals do not belong to society and belong in a "closed sanatorium." The song describes the body parts of both healthy and deformed individuals, with emphasis on the deformities of the latter. The lyrics also suggest that God has created all beings, including the deformed, and society's refusal to accept them is unjust. It concludes by asking the question, "Was this the life you wished for, spending your life in a closed sanatorium?"
The lyrics of the song highlight the issue of discrimination against individuals born with physical deformities. Society has created a hierarchy of human worth, where the physically impaired are deemed inferior to the healthy. The song explores the psychological trauma that individuals with deformities go through due to the constant rejection from society. It also questions the role of religion in the creation of such individuals and whether it is just to accuse a deity of such creations.
