Secretive Finnish black metal outfit Thy Serpent released a hateful, scornful tirade against Christianity with their song 'Christcrusher' (lifted from the album of the same name) in 1998. Not just objectors to religion, it seems their loathing is much more deep rooted than that. They blast: "I can't follow Jesus Christ, The biggest liar of the light, I don't need your fucking bread, Share that with the sheeps... Thousands of heathens were murdered, By Christian hands, And what they have told us, Bastards of Un-divine God, Lies, Lies, Lies."

What about The Stranglers and their 1981 album Themeninblack which had the prefix of The Gospel According to... This album dealt with the concept that God is an extra terrestrial being and that therefore all religons are built on falsehood. The cover featured Da Vinci's The Last Supper as a gatefold sleeve and on it Judas Iscariot had been replaced by a Maninblack.

It seems like RUSH has promoted rational thought and a bent against supernaturalism. They've never said they don't believe, outright; but, they seem very intelligent and rational.

RUSH has said that they don't believe, both in interviews, and most recently and strongly on their album "Snakes and Arrows". Check out the song "Faithless", which, as it promises, is about not believing.
