Blackie Lawless makes some good points in this interview. He is not a bible thumper. I am sure many of us have been where he has been in his thoughts and thinking too. Even heavy metal guys need a foundation!

How Blackie Lawless’s Faith Affected Making Of W.A.S.P.’S “Golgotha”
“When we say ‘religion,’ we kind of use that as a general term, and when people have the resistance that they have to it, they have every reason to feel that way. That’s part of what drove me away — the indoctrination of men that I received; it’s man’s indoctrination. Now, from my perspective, my faith is based on Jesus Christ and the Bible — nothing more, nothing less.
“I don’t want to hear anybody telling me their ideas or their interpretations or interjections of what they’ve put into the Bible, like telling me I can’t eat meat on Friday, or I got to go and worship somebody’s old dead bones somewhere. That’s not in my Bible. There’s a lot of it. Every organized religion has it, every organized faith has it. That’s not where I’m coming from.”

W.A.S.P. Lyric Video For New Song ‘Scream’

I would like to say “hard to believe” but I have to say, isn’t it awesome that Blackie Lawless is still kicking out great music after all this time. I first got turned on to W.AS.P. back in the day when they released songs like “Hellion”, “I wanna Be Somebody”, “Sleeping in the Fire” and “F**k like a Beast”. The metal guitars and Blackie’s vocals cut thru like a knife or as in W.A.S.P.’s logo, a saw blade! It was great music for the angry youth of the day.W.A.S.P. continues to release great music and tours to this day. However Blackie’s heart isn’t so black anymore. His music is still hard hitting and his lyrics are still powerful. W.A.S.P.’s new album is called Golgotha. Make sense? Check out this lyric video and did you get the message.

I am thinking Chris Holmes (formerly of W.A.S.P.) might just be the next David Allen Coe. He isn’t much of a singer but he still has his chops. And killer chops that is for sure. He should find a singer and get out there and make some noise. He is a bad ass guitar player anyway and still has the cool guitars!
