The Thousands

I make a lot of noise about fishing, and why shouldn’t I? It’s the incontestable king of blood sports! Nothing beats blasting out into the salty blue yonder aboard my boat The Baboso Grande, and having it out with that most vicious specimen in Neptune’s hideous menagerie – The Blue Marlin. And while I’m out there killing those big weird bastards I like listening to the most flagrantly satanic record ever made: Coven’s Witchcraft Destroys Minds & Reaps Souls. How satanic, you ask? Well, besides the whole album sounding like Jefferson Airplane with a pitchfork in its butt, there’s a thirteen-minute recording of the band performing an actual black mass.**Here’s a snippet-

"I swear to give my mind, body, and soul unreservedly to the furtherance of the designs of our Lord Satan. If I betray my oath, I do now decree to have my throat cut, my tongue and heart torn out and to be buried in the sand of the ocean that the waves of it may carry me away into an eternity of oblivion." Heavy.

Other cuts on this spooky psych-odyssey include: ‘Choke, Thirst, Die’, ‘Pact with Lucifer’, and ‘Dignitaries of Hell.’ Hail Satan.
