Nightstalker Tackle the Crisis of Modernity

Being scholars themselves, Greek trio Nightstalker would obviously be familiar with the philosophical works of Friedrich Nietzsche. Doubtless when they were composing songs for their MeteorCity debut, Superfreak, they did so with the following quote from The Joyful Wisdom in mind:

“God is dead. God remains dead. And we have killed him. How shall we, murderers of all murderers, console ourselves? That which was the holiest and mightiest of all that the world has yet possessed has bled to death under our knives. …Is not the greatness of this deed too great for us? Must we not ourselves become gods simply to be worthy of it? There has never been a greater deed; and whosoever shall be born after us — for the sake of this deed he shall be part of a higher history than all history hitherto.”

Of course, Nightstalker manage to put it more succinctly, as we can see with the title of the song around which their latest video is based, “Baby, God is Dead.” As audience members, we can be sure the speeding roadster and green-screen antics are meant to serve as an allegory for the falsehoods and distractions man inevitably must conquer on his journey toward embodying the ?bermensch. Kudos to the band on their subtlety of presentation.
