Lyrics:
This paradigm
Everyday it’s on my mind
Will we ever find
Anything else but glorified
Sorcerers and saboteurs?
(Sometimes I think)
Sometimes I think about the fear of madness
And the feeling it’s controlling us all
(The feeling it’s controlling us all)
Maybe one day we could conquer the feeling
That we’re living at the bottom of a bottomless hole
(But don’t you know it?)
Don’t you know that you can do what you want to
When you know that you’ve got love in your heart?
(You know that you’ve got love in your heart)
So many people with a struggle inside them
But you know it’s just a play and we’re just playing the part
Of sorcerers and saboteurs
(Can you believe it?)
Can you believe that you invent your own demons
And the demons take control of your mind?
(Oh yes indeed I do believe it)
So don’t you let another person invent them
‘Cause they’re only put together with whatever they find
They’re sorcerers and saboteurs
This paradigm
Is a genuine
Pantomime
In my 40’s this band have given me back that teenage feeling of discovering a new band and being blown away. So happy they are here.
Well put totally agree.
I haven’t had that feeling with a group since a long long long long long time.👍🙂
@Mongol Mcphee - The same here!
Try some King Gizzard and The Lizard Wizard.
If you don't like an album, skip to the next one and it will be super different in tone, but still very much a King Gizz album.
Try Fishing for Fishies or Polygondwanaland first
This is exactly the feeling
Couldn't have said it better myself!
For a band pulled out of time and dropped into the 21st century, I think you folks are adapting quite well. This song is a treasure. Brother Michael, as always, seems to really be enjoying his performance about 10-15% more than should even be possible.
Brilliant description of Brother Michael, that lad has earned a pint if ever I meet him!
Isnt it typical of a worship band Pianist to do so? Just feels right, didn't notice this in any video til you brought it up lol 😂
Bro Michael is the man!
Organ, idnit.
It’s like if Kansas fell down the stairs.
Best comment EVER I almost peed my pants
I can’t stop laughing at this comment
Wow I was just gonna write and say got kansas? Great song
I laughed so hard it hurt, then after thinking about it, I can not say that you are wrong, except that you dont have to fall down a flight of stairs to appreciate the church of the cosmic skull. Or be from the south.
i thought Kansas az well...
Mastodon really took a different approach this time
Lol
Literally made me laugh out loud
this is more metal than Mastodon's last album
Hah!
@@elcreep i didnt like their last few full lengths but they made an ep that is definitely not metal but is one of my favorite mastodon albums . also loved when front man for neurosis played that live set with mastodon and all the songs sounded liek a neurosis take on mastodon . it is quite amazing set ..kerrang set if you wanted to check it out
I'm waiting for the epic rock opera that only this group could produce.
Call down Tina
Yes,1000x, yes.
This band man, I swear, changing my life.
Heard them yesterday for the first time, and I know exactly what you mean.
Definitely reminds ya not to take shit so serious!
I absolutely agree nonstop eye opening moments
Same same, magical. ⚡️⚡️⚡️
They are amazing live as well.
This is the catchiest Non-annoying Song i've ever heard. Masterpiece in his own way
This song lives in my head "rent free" as the kids say
@@madcap1224 They say this track is bussin now.
I'm gonna tell my kids this is the Manson family.
I never found those memes funny. But this one was actually good
Hahah White people need to be stopped
a year later your comment is still making people breathe slightly louder through their nostrils
Hahahahaha
Make it witchy!!
I feel like this is one of the cool cults. Like, they don't want to destroy the world. The just wanna do music and probably smoke a bunch of weed, and that seems rad
Finally a cult I can get behind!
Will there be pizza?
@Wretch Gunk ummmm what kind of pie? This all hinges on the pie.
Except for the weed part, that is
Because all that is rad!!!
There's so many retro bands with cool names and sixties album covers but nothing like Church Of The Cosmic Skull. They're stand alone style has already made them a world-wide phenomenon.
Thank you Mike! x x x
GHOST: ..."we'll take the Minor chords, and you guys can have all the Major chords..deal?"
CHURCH of the COSMIC SKULL: .."ok deal 🤘"
Truly some of the sexiest keyboard playing I have ever seen
I have listemed to the new album 3 times since last night, it gets better with each listen. there is so much love on this album that it makes me sick...in a good way. happy friday!

Something about the lead singer is so intense. It feels like he's looking right into your soul and singing words that were written for you when he looks at the camera. There's a feeling that I can't put my finger on. Powerful
He's like an electric Jesus
@@willbadley4798 🤣💫yes!!!! Am gonna see them in June ....so excited....new dancin boots n everythin😳🥳🥳🥳
I have found my new favorite band! They’re sorcerers and saboteurs!
"Everybody's Going To Die" for sure, but I still want to enjoy this amazing band (cult?) as long as I live. Praised be the Cosmic Skull, sisters and brothers!
Yes, ye have entered the cult... please send all ur possessions to the FanClub address listed above immediately and report to 224 Oak street to commence the "ImBibiNing Ceremony" post-haste. /w\/w\
CotCS are the only band that has ever given me that "feeling" that I felt as a child the first time I hear Queen. That sense of wonder and true newness. It's something special and I'm thankful for it every time I listen to them.
First band a long time that made me feel that way and they are frigging unbelievable live saw them in an old church talk about perfect venue
What great lyrics. 4 years old. In the time we all needed to hear them. Most uplifting lyrics to help our family of humans.
Oh yeah, that’s the stuff.
Joyous Cosmic Friday, everyone!
Really cool to see Aragon from Lord of the Rings play violin.
😁
It’s Space Jeebus!!!
Strider!!
Nah, dude, that's Lucian from Underworld. Now that the war between lycans and vampires is over he can focus on his true passion.
Brothers and Sisters, I'm just disappointed that we have so few members, spread the word.
Spread the Gospel.
@@grindcoreninja6527 Serious these guys are going places
He's an electric Jesus fear not
It took 51 years to find my favorite band and guitarist to listen to. Worth the wait.
Whenever I Feel Low I go to the Church.
It's what kept me going for the last four years.
Thank You, Brothers and Sisters....
Absolutely love everything they put out. I'm obsessed with this band.
It's like Jethro Tull and ELO had a space child and in no way is that a bad thing ! Love this band !
First time I've ever even heard of this band and after watching this I can never not be a fan. I love it.
wow, taking notes. I might have some new poses when i play the piano soon.
I was worried about you guys. It has been a year since you have posted any songs. Glad to see you are back.
The drummer still looks like he doesnt care. I love it.
I am not exactly sure what this is, but I like the music, the people, the video, and the general attitude.
Hands down THE BEST band that has found me in this crazy year of 2020. Up with the seven objects!!! Love all around.
after I discovered this Church I left atheism
Welcome home Brother!
Lmao! 😅😇🙌🙏
Thats a fine trim Brother Laurence!
Please please Pahhhlease Please keep this Project/Band going, I know everyone is involved with other things But you guys are amazing together. I know there has been doubts but people will come to see the love of the family within the Church. 🙏😌
Fear not - we're working on the next release currently! x x x
This makes me reminisce with people I don't know about things that haven't happened
That's a great track. Violin playing in a rock band, gotta love it.
I woke up today singing "sorcerers and saboteurs" in my head. I think the music is fusing with my DNA just fine.🌈🤘🌈
I'm glad I randomly had a song by them in my "recommend" music @ 4:30am today and I clicked on it, these dudes are actually pretty F*kkin GOOD! lol 🤘🏼😎
Nada a declarar, apenas sentir!
opa, tu é br?
Eu quero é a letra .... preciso saber o que ele ta cantando kkkk
🤘
@@godinho.kidjoe só esperando eles lançarem pq tem trechos que acho que nem nativo entende. pecou um pouco na hora de masterizar, acho
Eai galera Stoner tupiniquim!
You guys are thematically the tails to Ghost's heads. Two sides of a coin
Nailed it on the head! That's exactly what I think.
Man I said the same thing!
My thoughts exactly! I'm so damn happy to have found two new (well, basically new) rock bands that I really like. For ages I felt like metal keeps producing fantastic new bands, but rock was just dead. But things are really picking up nowadays!
Truest shit I've heard all day
Exactly!!!
One of the coolest flying v's ever!
If I hadn’t found Church of the Cosmic skull I am not sure how I would be carrying on today. Much love.
Much love to you too Taylor! x x x
Love this new music!!! Come to the U.S. soon!
YES. PLEASE. PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE.
This music is a perfect cure to a bad day.
Why is this so badass?!
Its cosmic perfection
@@willbadley4798 I didn't notice they gave my comment a heart until you commented lol
@@the-engneer I'll give you some of the credit!!!
You finally got one right, RUclips algorithm
I just love this mix of shrooms, Dzogchen & Thelema served as good ol' psychedelic rock!
Ngl was on a light dose very light micro dose when I found these gues
i need this in my life
I feel a new age for rock n roll coming. You guys make part of this.
i may serious get my first tattoo as "Don't you know that you can do what you want to
When you know that you've got love in your heart?" it hits me so hard every time i listen and i want it reminding me of how to live every day
This would most righteous indeed! x x x
Can't express how much I love this band. This band picks me up when I'm down and reassures me when I'm feeling well. I'm building a special place in my house for all your albums. When people come over and say "Who's that?" Then I can say " Glad you ask" .....
Love it, and I'm so pleased you've added Aragorn to the group...
Zakk Wylde's side project is a real departure from his regular sound.
OMG LOL x 1,000,000,000
plus I might've just crapped my pants
Is it Jerry Rafferty, Trevor Horn, Jeff Lynn, Brian May,Asia could go on, brilliant ✌️
@@NorthWoodsWalks Are you the Christopher Keene from Spinäl Tap that plays David St. Hubbins? If so, you just made my decade.
This song is great love it. Take me to church.
A truly joyous cosmic Friday indeed. I remember talking briefly about my hesitation to play in a band especially on my violin. Seeing and hearing especially in this track inspires confidence in me to push further for it. Thank you all very much from the church and much love!
These folks have what it takes.
7 members in the band, 7 pointed star ie. Septagram, 7 colors in a rainbow hince the logo, song titled Seven, 7 songs on the first album, you have the 7 object/paths to follow via your website, and there are 7 distinct notes in a diatonic musical scale. I'm sure I've missed a few things but I will keep searching through the auditory and visual transcendence that is The Church of the Cosmic Skull.
7 for 7 letters in "Joe mama"
7 syllables in Sorcery and sabotage
@@PencilProper letters not syllables.. But I gotcha.
each band member has two buttcheeks. whats the connection?
@@sardonicsisyphus nah, there actually are 7 syllables in the whole title
I'm glad I got to hear this. You are on repeat while i walk to the shops.
You guys must take prayer requests because I'm feeling the spirit!
This is the only church I ever go to. They have the best music.
This band is awesome. I just can't stop listening!
Wow, this is something unique and really cool.
But don't you know that you can do what you want to when you know that you've got love in your heart?
Amazing guitar tone just the right level of overdrive feels good in the ear drums. Love the mix the music the members the videos . . . Awesome !
This is my favorite song of this year
I lihht how they not once broke character!! I would love to see the outtakes.
My new favorite band and cult. Can’t believe I just found them.
Mine ears have heard the light!
More people need to be exposed to the Church! I'm a die hard metal guy that absolutely cannot get enough of this band.
My grandpa used to listen this when he was young. Good to see they're still in active
Best thing I’ve seen the past 10 years.
1 year later. Still amazing.
I AM YOUR 53 YEAR OLD GROUPIE... You Saved Me Tonight. I Love You.
It's absolutely incredible as always.
Each day since november 20, when you started sending the stages to the members of the church, was the best day I could have.
Following each stage, listening to the new songs and in the 5th stage, when the protagonist finally reached the mountain crest and started his metamorphosis into the sorcerer, which led into madness and duality as the protagonist was forgotten, only for him to reappear and hunt down the sorcerer, changing him into the saboteour, until the 10th stage comes and the Cycle of the Sephiroth continues.
This was just perfect for the end of my cycle, as today, november 29 of 2019, I end one more cycle in my life. The last 14 years of my life I spent in the school, and now I'm thrown into the world with few things to comfort me in this unrelenting change, with music being one of them, specially your music, that connects with something deep within me. And faith being another thing, faith in the Cosmic Skull, faith in the 7 objects. I recognize the hallucinatory nature of reality, I investigate all aspects of the reality-hallucination, I recieve all phenomena with equanimity, I celebrate and uphold the freedom of art, science, and thought, I meet mistakes with forgiveness and determination, I do what I want, what is the purest of me, what I think deserves to be done, with love in my heart, and in the end, I maintain focus on the unity of all living beings. The faith and these objects are what helped me go through the hardest moment of my life and they will help me go through this unbearable change in my life, that begins today.
All I can say is.
Thank you.
Are you by chance majoring in the Literature Arts?
@@THRASHMETALFUNRIFFS Not actually, but I do write things like these since I started school
2nd half flows and is all natural first part too many characters and places into sentences of confinement.follow your heart and the mind and body will follow
This is amazing Stefano, thank YOU! x x x
I think I just passed into an alternate time where Brian Wilson joins Kansas and performs a song written by Andrew Gold while on a very nice acid trip. In other words I love it!
I don't remember what brought me here, but I'm digging the style.
Thanks to the universe for gifting us this incredible band🕉️✌️
This is f***ing epic!
I cannot stop listening to the Cosmic Skull and both of Brother Bill's solo albums. All 5 albums in one playlist on repeat for about a month now.
I can't get enough of Church of The Cosmic Skull, keeping me sane Through the current unpleasantness.
If “The Dude” started a band that wasn’t CCR.
Pour me a cup of that Jim Jones and let’s get this party started!
😂😂😂😂😂
best comment ever.
mark sly
That’s what we called that weak ass koolaid they give you in jail and prison because it’s so bad for you.
No bro, those were blacks and commies.
This is swedes and musicians
They're obviously going to overdose together.
@@wood4life damn!! I know too much about that
I like how the guy on the piano is jamming.
Folks, this is just absolutely brilliant. Feels simultaneously brand new and like classic rock. You guys and girls along with Ghost are the absolute peak of rock right now!
It's like a groove rock cult, where do I sing up? Been listening since evil in your eye a few years back and I'm still into this oddly groovy rock you're throwing out there. Props🤘💀
Thanks so much Jaxon! You can sign up here: cosmicskull.org/join x x x
It's gonna be epic.
Classic Rock is alive and well!
this and Purson remind me of listening to classic rock stations
I was wearing a black track suit when I started watching this. By the end of the video I was wearing a white jumpsuit. True story!
We need more retro counter-culture in this age of malaise.
I feel asleep to this and dreamed of petting a kittie.
That is the grooviest paint scheme/flying V guitar I've ever seen. Awesome retro sounding prog rock/pop band!
1:05 that's a damn fine stare down the lens, Brother Bill.
Thanks a million, but Brother Joseph takes gold at 2:33 x x x
Brothers and Sisters are Killin' it!!!
Cheers from Pakistan 🍻🇵🇰
Oh, I see Brother Sam's mental hyposthesia cleared up!
Hahaha it comes in waves x x x
Never under estimate the power of a wicked poly rhythm out chorus. It is the fulfillment of the song. The final magic blend with a long fade...
This was the first song I heard from the Church, and I was most impressed with the "thing" at the end. "Thing" because I'm a self-taught drummer and wouldn't know what a poly rhythm was if my life depended on it. 😂😂
@@frankginocchio8865 Actually, my friend, you are quite versed in poly rhythm. It is simply multiple rhythms at once, which is what you do on the drum set. An advanced version of that is in this out chorus where the drums keep a straight beat..., bass, violin and keys are doing an odd count "over the one" and the guitar comes in with yet an addition odd count. All instruments resolve back together every few measures thus it feels like the song is floating over the root drum part... I find such too sexy and the ultimate way to end a song... It helps if you have an upright piano and a violinist in the mix with everyone wearing white...😉
Another well known version of this is in the song Kashmir from Zeppelin where the drums are in 4/4 and everything else on top in 3/4...
@@Swonder1972 The downside to being self taught. Hahaha. Also like Over The Hills And Far Away coming out of the guitar solo
There’s so much depth and truth in the lyrics of these songs and yet they are also really fun. Sorcery indeed!
Sounds like opening theme from some 70's/80's tv series ,\m/
Rasputin on the violin and stares.
This is one of the best band aesthetics I’ve ever seen! Dig the vibe and music, brothers!
That electric piano must be massive for you all to stand on it like that!
