Society 1 first rose to notoriety in 1999 with their debut album, "Slacker Jesus", earning massive press coverage through such media outlets as MTV, VH1, Billboard, Details, Rolling Stone, Spin, Revolver, and Kerrang!. Adding to the media frenzy was the fact that Matt Zane was an acclaimed porn director, gaining worldwide infamy for his "Backstage Sluts" series, a series of films which matched porn stars with such real-life rockers as Limp Bizkit's Fred Durst, Korn's Jonathan Davis, and Sugar Ray's Mark McGrath.
Society 1's second album, "Exit Through Fear", was released worldwide in the Spring of 2003 on Earache Records. Society 1's first video, "Nothing", (in which Zane performs the first real "suspension" ever done by a singer in a music video), aired regularly on American Tv station Fuse's Uranium, along with a special episode of Uranium devoted entirely to the making-of the "Nothing" video. By the end of 2003, Society 1 had completed more touring than any other Earache band that year, supporting such acts as Dope, Twiztid, and Pissing Razors on marathon coast-to-coast tours.
In March 2004, Matt "The Lord" Zane took his suspension feat to the next level, making himself the first singer to ever sing live while suspended. Drawing over 700 fans to LA's Key Club, The Lord performed three songs live with Society 1 whilst hanging up to 30 feet above the stage, supported only by six meathooks inserted in his flesh. Orgy frontman Jay Gordon made a special guest appearance on vocals.
The "suspension show" marked Society 1's final U.S. show in support of "Exit Through Fear". In May 2004 Society 1 take their brand of rock n roll debauchery to Europe, in support of Godhead, for their first tour outside of the U.S Following the tour, the band will enter the studio to begin recording their third album (their second for Earache). Meanwhile, Society 1's third video, "Hate", was accepted by MTV2's Headbangers Ball and Fuse's Uranium.
Society 1's current line-up features Matt Zane on vocals, Dirst on bass, Atron on guitar and Berzerk Kirk on drums. They are currently working on their next full length album, Sadist Messiah, scheduled to be released in 2008.
Everyone Dies
Society 1 Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
One of the many worshipping cock facade
Did it give the power you believed?
Did your friends confirm all that you need?
Preach it now with such respect
Years later and it's still in effect
Hold it dear close to your soul
Now come closer so my message can be told
Fuck - everyone of them
Touch -everyone of them
Because Everyone Dies
Break - every one of them
Suck - everyone of them
Kill - everyone of them
Because Everyone Dies
It's all a part of the game
You say it proud with no shame
Brag about it all the time
Exception to the rules, so divine
Now it's done it's all you have
The one time in your life that you could grasp
The only thing that ever filled the hole
So fuck on you have no soul
Feel - every one of them
Fuck - everyone of them
Touch -everyone of them
Because Everyone Dies
Break - every one of them
Suck - everyone of them
Kill - everyone of them
Because Everyone Dies
I will take you
Then will break you
Push you into all that I do
Die
It makes me feel so fucking sick
To think of his filthy dick
But it starts to hurt me more
When I think you are a whore
Little girl so loose and wrecked
How many did that man infect?
Could you give him anymore?
Than what you gave you little whore
You're all the same that's what you're for
Kill everyone of them
Fuck - Fuck - Fuck
Because Everyone Dies
Kill - Kill - Kill
Because Everyone Dies
Feel - every one of them
Fuck - everyone of them
Touch -everyone of them
Because Everyone Dies
Break - every one of them
Suck - everyone of them
Kill - everyone of them
Because Everyone Dies
I will take you
Then will break you
Push you into all that I do
The lyrics of Society 1's song "Everyone Dies" are dark and confrontational, with a message that seems to be an indictment of the corrupting influence of power and the dangers inherent in submitting to those who would abuse it. The opening lines, "How did it feel to fuck a god? / One of the many worshipping cock facade," seem to be a reference to those who are willing to exploit their connections and influence in order to gain power and control over others. The subsequent lines question the efficacy of this power: "Did it give the power you believed? / Did your friends confirm all that you need?" The chorus speaks to the ultimate futility of this quest for power: "Feel - every one of them / Fuck - everyone of them / Touch -everyone of them / Because Everyone Dies / Break - every one of them / Suck - everyone of them / Kill - everyone of them / Because Everyone Dies."
The lyrics continue to explore themes of corruption and exploitation, with lines like "It's all a part of the game / You say it proud with no shame / Brag about it all the time / Exception to the rules, so divine." There's a sense of bitterness and despair in these words, as though the singer is resigned to the fact that those who seek power will always manipulate and exploit others in order to maintain their position. The bridge of the song takes on a more personal tone, as the singer seems to be addressing a specific person: "Little girl so loose and wrecked / How many did that man infect? / Could you give him anymore? / Than what you gave you little whore." There's a sense of anger and disgust here, but also a hint of sadness- the idea that this person has been used and discarded by someone who didn't care about her.
Overall, "Everyone Dies" is a bleak and confrontational song that explores the corrupting influence of power and the dangers of submitting to those who would abuse it. The message of the song is a warning against those who would seek to exploit others, and a reminder that ultimately, we all face the same fate.
