English grindcore band Napalm Death addressed the negative side of religion with their 2006 concept album 'Smear Campaign'. Singer Mark 'Barney' Greenway justified the album by accusing religion of being the cause of all the woes in the world, telling The Herald Dispatch: "Going back thousands of years, religion has been a widely used means of controling the population. Our world is governed in the highest echelons by religion, and what I wanted to say was that it is causing all of this grief in the world... We should not look through an ethereal third party that is unsubstantiated. Why not trust ourselves?"
