Premise:



Everything seems to be classified as an "ism" these days..each having a certain stigma attached to it..(be it Socialism/Capitalism, etc. etc..)and so one day I thought,"ya know, I dont particularly care for any of these "ism"s, I'll just create my own, based on what I feel encompasses the overall message of Rock music..coupled with my intrigue of history and fantasy...(Bottom --> Up)

pt.VI, 'Mortal Times'

It is the era of Man...the tides of time have swept much life from this earth, yet, mankind plows onward, reigning in the 21st Century as the dominant species, undisputed as far as the mind can wander.
It is at great expense of both earth and animal alike, that we should emerge with such vigor, spawn from such a humble past. But, humble, we are not...At no time in imaginable history has one ecological phenomenon been so destructive, to itself, and to all it encounters.
The legacy of the Homosapien is unfolding into nothing short of a catastrophic mishap. What will be the result of a mere hand full of decades of blatant disregard and abuse of our natural resources? Few have thought to venture into this realm, and a terrible, nightmarish land it is...
Conceivable that the mere thought of the future wasteland that we so indifferently so shamefully develop, may in itself be enough to drive a mortal man insane with grief. Thus, most choose to stand idle, in a time when no such liberty can be afforded...A moment in the infinite ocean of space & time when the most influential being to perhaps ever have known this Galaxy, has the capacity to alter the path of history. Indeed, already has...
Mankind is hardened. A stone fixture on the face of the planet, monumental in stature...flawed in design. With all the vigor of a soldier marching to a beat we have gone into battle without careful consideration of those vital elements of engagement. With pride as solid as rock we hold high our accomplishments, with little regard for the ultimate consequences.
Consequences. For every action, an equal & opposite reaction. "You shouldn't throw stones if you live in a glass house." The effects of the tiny cracks we have made in Earth's outer wall, it's perimeter defenses, if gone unmended, will amount to a weak-spot. If history bares any meaning...if it taught us ALL anything...Even invincible walls can & will crumble, when fallen by men.
With unchecked expansion of Empire, with ill-fated policies near & present, the time is, and can only be now, that the hearts of all women & men beat as one...

pt.V, 'Immortal Words'

"Hate, if you wanna hate...if it makes you safe, if it makes you brave.."

"Pray, if you wanna pray, if you like to kneel, if you like to lay.."

"Cry, if you wanna cry, if it helps you see, if it clears your eyes.."

"Times are gone for honest men..sometimes, far too long for snakes.."

"..Hands are for shaking, not tieing.."

"I'm not a prophet, Im not a martyr, I won't preach to you, but here's a caution...You better understand, that I won't hold your hand...but if it helps you mend then I won't stop it!"  
                                              - All words of; Cornell via Audioslave & Soundgarden, circa 1992-2002ce.

pt.IV, 'A Pledge'

If we are to have faith, any at all, let it be in fellow man,
"All for One, One for All."
Hold your peers in the highest regard, in fact, that of a god...
(that may sound contentious, but no, not at all)
That which u hold, regardless of gold...that what you see, with hatred or glee..not some false prophet, some "Savior of Souls".
Let it be known, 'where Ive been's what I know'. And let all men be free, til' the day that they go...

pt.III, 'The Amendments'

By the grace of knowledge we are granted the wisdom of centuries before us;

1. Thou shall regard all as thy brothers & sisters, as matter of fact.
2. Thou shall respect thy brothers & sisters, else expect equal reaction.
3. Thou shall aspire to conscience. Always question intent before action.
4. Thou shall act collectively on necessary issues which effect all of mankind, and every individual.
5. Thou shall share both wealth & wisdom with all, such is equality.
6. Thou shall NOT act against better conscience. Unacceptable is harm upon others, whether few or many.
7. Thou shall recognize both commonalities and differences among all, and act accordingly.
8. Thou shall be accountable, show dignity & responsibility in all aspects of life.
9. Thou shall have all of these dignities, keeping in mind, every despute can be solved with time & the mind.
10. Thou shall Rock On At All Times!!

pt.II, 'Gods & Men'

Times have given rise to a new breed of mortals, those who devote life to the greatest of causes...Let us immortalize legend...

Cornell of the Sun; bringer of light in the darkest of days.
Groehl of Unity; uniter of great thinkers in common cause.
Hendrix of Creation; innovating and inspiring creativity.
Jagger of Rhythm; that whose movement provokes the masses.
Joplin & Morrison of Health, a constant reminder of the importance of caring.
Lennon of Love, spoke truths, spread the wealth of joy.
Maida of Peace; resurrecting fallen dreams and ushering in new days.
Maynard & Reznor of the Mind; hypnotically delivering truth.
Ozzy of the Moon; an ever-present hope in dark times.
Paige & Plant of Prosperity; enabling growth, change, progress.
Slash of the Soul; pillaging the depths of humanity wielding sword of wood & string.
and finally...
Hammett, Hetfield & Ulrich of Justice; flanked by thunderous legions... reminding all the destruction to ensue should the Brothers of Rock ever fail.

And so we follow these able few in hopes of seeing a future of hope & prosperity, truth & reason, of quality & value...for generations to come. Rock on, brothers & sisters

Roxism...A New Cause

It was forged in a time of great disparity, molded by generations. It sought to smash through the suppression of minds & would ultimately culminate in the unification of the masses. It is a story of triumph, the sweet glory of consciousness over monsterous lies & deceitful villains..
Its leaders were fearless, relentless...mortal gods. Its followers, wills unwavering and strong.
This new religion would become the anti-religion. Its goals to annihilate hatred & greed.. To pierce deeply into the heart of mankind and spew new blood, much brighter than its crimson past...
For a new generation of enlightened warriors has emerged...battles waged by their fathers, their fuel..
They seek not death nor destruction, but to unite their brothers & sisters on common ground...and be rid of the forces that bind the raging beast of truth.
