Abouttimothy sasscer Expertise I can answer question on the first generation of punk (1974-1981), both American (especially Cleveland and NYC) and English, post-punk bands of note from 1981 to present ,
and am quite knowledgable on reggae, especially 1971-1981
Experience 25 years as a musician/producer, avid concertgoer and inastiable reader/researcher on the subject
Publications perfect sound forever (online music zine), contributor to various other sites (Bob Marley, The Fall, Public Image, for example)
Question i know it's a long shot 'cause i'm trying to find a song that i dont know the title/singer. heck, i only remember a line in the lyrics "i am the anti-christ" and that it was sung by a male singer (unsure if it's a band/solo singer). the song was really popular on the radio in the late 90s, i think the singer is american 'cause he pronounced 'anti' as 'an-tye' instead of 'an-tee'.
i've googled before and these are NOT the song im looking for:
slayer - the antichrist
sex pistols - anarchy in the uk
marilyn manson - antichrist superstar
deathstars - synthetic generation
hades almighty - the antichrist inside
atramentous - this night i found out that i am the antichrist
also, i think the second verse has the word 'semi' in it and again, the singer pronounced it as 'seh-my' instead of 'seh-mee'...sorry that i cant remember anything more about the song...it's quite a catchy song and i think it's a little chanting-like at some parts of the song. any help is appreciated...thanks!
Answer Izzie;
I'm sorry, my friend, but I don't know the song, and I would otherwise have done what you've already done...google it, ask around....I'm not a big help on 90's music, so maybe one of the other punk or music experts could help you...
But I've been there, searching the universe for some half-remembered snippet of gold, and if you look long enough, it will eventually surface....keep your eyes and ears peeled, and best of luck...
