HOW THE ORIGIN RESTED ON THE SEVENTH DAY

"Dialogue on virtue between a metalhead fighter and a wannabe metalhead"

It's been a while since they told me that saying the word "Devourment" without saying the word "cool" within ten seconds is a risk; another ten seconds and you could find yourself expelled from the Register of Metalheads. The only way not to get caught is to be more metalhead than the metalheads: but in that case, you don't understand anything about metal.

More or less hypothetically, I met this guy; a shadow in the world, a name in Metal. We started talking about Origin and suddenly the world appeared different to me; I became Dante and he Virgil. Within a few minutes, we were in the jaws of Lucifer.

We broke the ice talking about the Italian scene; due to some sort of perverse nepotism, all Italian bands are cool. And this is undisputed, just as there is no debate over Devourment: if you have a new band you have to kiss everyone's ass, otherwise, you don't understand a damn thing about music. (Pride does not go well with success). I asked him whose ass he kissed, but he got offended and said that my band sucks; from that day on, no metalhead has ever appreciated my band.

When we became friends again, on the day I said that Cephalotripsy are cool without providing any reasons, the new Origin album had just been released; if you don't love Devourment, you're a poser, but if you don't love Origin, you're a wuss. After pondering my sexual tastes for a long time, I determined that there must be a flaw in the reasoning and went to my Virgil to present him with the problem. He enlightened me; by the time we finished talking, he had managed to convince me with ironclad reasoning that Origin cannot be unloved.

PREMISE

Origin are cool.

Origin are very cool.

Origin rock.

Origin are incredibly fast, therefore they rock.

Origin never slow down, so they are cool.

Liturgy too, but it doesn't matter.

Liturgy are barbarians, Origin are cool.

Origin rock a lot.

Origin are technical; they don't understand a damn thing about music and don't know how to compose, but they have the fastest hands (missing the second term of comparison, it's to be understood as an absolute comparative).

Origin sweep so fast they cannot be anything but cool.

Beneath The Massacre are better than Origin but it doesn't count.

Beneath The Massacre are so fast they become boring: Origin are faster than Beneath The Massacre hence they are not boring.

Day I

On the first day, in 2000, Origin were born; with one album ("Origin") they were already in Olympus; this is obvious, Origin rock.

Day II

On the second day, Origin invented Origin; they realized that true tautology only exists if you do something different, so they composed an Origin album ("Informis Infinitas Inhumanitas"). The beautiful part of their electoral program was the fifth song; miraculously it was the same as the others.

Day III

My teacher stopped to eat bread and salami and listen to a song by Hour Of Penance; after pointing out to me how much knowledge is encompassed in a song by an Italian band, he dove back into Genesis, or Origin, if you prefer. On the third day, Origin released "Echoes Of Decimation".

Origin are very evolved; they have released four identical albums. Their evolution consists of becoming CONSISTENT.

Inhuman Dissiliency are persistent, not consistent!

Day IV

When slam is mentioned, Virgil spits: a bit like when Dante talks about Boniface VIII. Meanwhile, we reached the fourth day; Origin created Technical Brutal.

Origin have taken the technique of sweep to the extreme; piripiripiripiripi.

Origin released in 2008 an album identical to that of 2000, therefore they do not disappoint the fans.

It's not true that Origin is only for microcephalic listeners; they are the proof (!?)

Day VI

By the sixth day, I noticed the fifth was missing; the correct answer is that the guitar has six strings and the bass four, so the fifth doesn't exist. The fifth day Origin were in the rehearsal room, but on the sixth day, Origin defeated Slam.

In 2007, you couldn't not listen to Slam; in 2008, Origin changed metal and if you listen to Slam you'd better give "Antithesis" a try.

In 2008, Origin contributed to the refounding of the Brutal Rainbow: incredibly it is the same as in 2005. A true pact with the citizen.

Day VII

On the seventh day, Origin rested and released "Antithesis"; the guitarist stretched his wrists and the drummer was able to put his knee brace back on.

Origin fans rested by listening to "Antithesis", a shining example of how Brutal knows how to evolve; in my attempt to become an up-to-date metalhead, I listened to "Antithesis" and evolved. Now I am a eunuch.

When the syllogism was over, I was a reborn metalhead; I stopped asking myself questions and, not to make mistakes, I listened to Devourment. When I finished "Butcher The Weak" it was the seventh day and, while resting, I dreamed of being a poser. Then I woke up and ran to the mirror: when I saw that I still had the Origin shirt on, I checked my balls and could go back to sleep.
