Singer Daniel Wallace said of the new single:
“‘Fist Of God’ is another in the endless stream of anti-religion tirades that I go on and also a sort of sequel to ‘Hand Of God’ from the first record. It’s about evangelicals using the idea of an angry god as some kind of weapon to control people and put fear in them. I guess all this religious shit started with a natural curiosity about the world around us but quickly soured when that was outweighed by the fear of death and what happens after. People started making up stories so they could feel better about dying and some clever leaders saw a powerful means of dividing and controlling populations. The Catholic Church is wealthy beyond belief because of this. Honestly though, I can’t take any religions seriously; it’s not much different than if I was to base a belief system around the movie Poltergeist.”
