about

Praise His Name is a hoedown gospel banger which asks the question, can putting all of your faith in praising a magical psychopathic sky man cure all that ails ya? The answer may surprise you

It's no.

lyrics

Praise His Name

Are you beset by doubt? Are you crippled by guilt?
Is the existential mire giving you the chills?
Are you tired of wandering confused and afraid?
Well child I got the cure for all that ails ya:

Praise his name (Praise his name)
Praise his name (Praise his name)
Praise his name

Wander not into temptation, but deliver thyself from evil
Look not upon the complications of the sinner's vaudeville
For the righteous walk blindfolded in the light of divine love
Turn thy back upon desire, and praise the one above

Chorus

Come now the orphaned, come now the lost
Come now the wretched, and the unwashed
For he is hungry and how his belly aches
Come now and lay your neck upon his plate

Chorus

Get on your knees Praise his name
Lay down in the river Praise his name
Raise up your hands Praise his name
And he will deliver Praise his name
Repent your sins Praise his name
Wash them away Praise his name
Recant your chaos Praise his name
Your magnificent pain Praise his name
And you will be healed Praise his name
You will be saved Praise his name
Your every freedom Praise his name
Will be erased Praise his name
Behold his glory Praise his name
Glory rejoice Praise his name
Lay down your obedience Praise his name
And raise up your voice and Praise his name

Chorus

He don't want your wisdom, he don't want your heart
He don't want your tears, he don't want your laughter
And he's not interested in your beautiful mistakes
He just wants another sycophant at the end of his chain
to praise his name

Chorus

about

Dane Blacklock and the Preacher's Daughter Melbourne, Australia

Dane Blacklock and the Preachers Daughter are an abomination, and their mothers are very upset with them. Hewn from the rusty womb of a Melbourne gutter sometime around 2008, they have delighted and disgusted audiences with their depraved skalwaggery ever since. ... more
