Well, there is no hint of failure of any kind in this eye-opening debut. This is pretty heady stuff, Brian. Take me along slowly. The name Anger of the Lamb has both individual and cultural significance, expressing strong emotional contrasts. We are all born lambs, a creature often synonymous with innocence, love and purity, represents the positive more serene side of existence.
Anger represents the negative side of the emotional palette.
There is definitely an element of struggle and confusion within the name, similar to the trials and tribulations that each human being, including myself, encounters throughout the course of a lifetime. It also has a biblical reference that I feel best metaphorically represents the events that have defined my life up until now, based on the perceptions I have myself, and the set of eyes I see the world through, of rehashing the past, dealing with it, and letting it go. I felt that Anger of the Lamb was something that exemplified those principles most accurately. More to the point, the name represents a reaction to the end of innocence, the day when you wake up and realize what we are and what damage we have done as a society and a species, and how desensitized and animalistic we have become. That is where the element of Anger comes in.
