Dominatrix

Track 6 from the 1993 Confession of Faith release
The Sacrament




Dominatrix

As the dead leaves fall
On the pale wet ground
The screaming of the voices
Echoes all around
And the taste of pain
Holds on my tongue
And all who do not kneel
Are brought here and hung
In the red room
With the white walls
Standing here naked
The virgins bring bread
To murder the few that tried
That tainted the red
In the red room
With the white walls
Rape me in this red lit room
My vision of love a diseased womb
Rape me and it feels so good
It feels so good and I know it should
Twist with me in this tainted reign
Among the tears and among the pain
I realize that nothings new
And I’m chained to the wall
Bleeding for you



'Dominatrix' This is very Confession of Faith, dark lighting, the intense aural cascade. This song is from The Sacrament ep. The crowd seems very intense due to the fact that this was performed in the Highschool lunchroom and most of the students probably hadn't seen or heard music like this.



This is Confession of Faith performing to victory at the 1993 Minnesota Highschool Battle of the Bands at the Mirage. COF took sole first place. 2 bands tied for second place and 2 bands tied for third but COF one by themselves. What is amusing is that after COF performed, they immediately left the competition only finding out that they had won while they were returning their gear at home. The prize was free studio recording time. The songs we played were 'Hallowed' and 'Dominatrix'.



This is is an amusing juxtapose of Confession of Faith showing school spirit to help collect food. What makes this funny is how out of place the music is to the environment, from the thanking of the band before us (All the President's Men - the first band I formed) by saying all of their names wrong, to the introduction of the captains of school spirit. Another amusing element are the areas of the performance that are recorded over by news clips. This is a classic COF live performance. Also included are jeers and insults hurled at us the musicians like most of our performances. 'Dominatrix' is the song we played. This is a rather industrial/metal tune of ours.
