Scott's Metal Track of the Day - Godhead's Lament by Opeth

Today's Metal Track is Godhead's Lament by Opeth. This is off of their 1999 album Still Life. The song starts out pretty brutal. If it's too much for you, at least listen to the part starting at 2:55 before you give up.

The album is about a man who is banished from his home town because he does not have the same faith as the rest of the town. He comes back to rekindle a relationship with a woman in town and things start to go bad.

"Searching my way to perplexion
In crumbling faith I saw her
Bearing her pain in the wilderness
The gleam of her eyes
In that moment she knew"
