Behind The Tracks: Veil Of The Serpent - Death Cult (Single) (2024)

Veil Of The Serpent singer James about "Death Cult":

 

"Death Cult" is inspired by the horrific happenings in Jonestown on November 18, 1978. The Jonestown Massacre was a traumatic event in United States history. Though it occurred around 50 years ago, the underlying factors that led to their demise are still in present in the world today. Power, greed and megalomania fuel cult leaders and their flock to attempt to transcend being human. We tried to write this song as historically accurate and respectful to the victims as possible. Becoming a victim of a cult is not something people do on purpose. It is our duty as family, friends, and neighbors to save as many victims of cults in the future and those who do not realize they are in one today."
