This video featuring the song "Danger: Wildman" is from the Protestant metal band known as The Devil Wears Prada. A source tells me that the band The Devil Wears Prada picked up literature from Death to the World at a Christian music festival, which may be the reason behind the influence. I think its sort of obvious.

It is rather obvious. Sadly, it's impossible to understand a word they're saying.
ReplyDelete'Vanity is a sepulchre.' That sounds like wisdom straight out of the Desert Fathers. DTTW for sure.
ReplyDeleteOne of my favorite bands, by the way. I happen to really like metalcore.
Death to the World is an AWESOME fanzine! First read it in '94 or so, when fanzines were huge in the hardcore scene. I pulled out my boxes of 'zines last year and found four issues of DTTW. I used the internet and found those guys. The new zinsters over there sent me a few newer issues. I still want a couple of their sweet t-shirts! I love the Orthodox religion, I love hardcore & punk, but I hate this terrible Devil Wears Garbage Bags band. Horribly sucky modern rock-noise that is influenced by hardcore, punk, and metal but is neither of these three.
