THE BEAST

"Scientists and Priest", the fifth single from the concept album There is Something Wrong, tackles two seemingly opposite institutions: organized religion and science. The lyrics point out that both are just tools used by those who are truly in power to divide the masses into two factions, thus keeping both ignorant to the truth. Vocalist Kyriakos “Charlie” Tsiolis calls the teachings of these institutions “opiate of the masses”: “People find false comfort in either science or religion. The institutions have been corrupted and are used to divide the masses into two camps. It’s the perfect scam having people argue over what’s the truth." "The truth is that organized religion and science are full of shit and used to deceive us and keep us fighting each other. Institutions are tools of suppression and none are better at it than the ones telling us to worship false idols and blindly believe in fake science.”
