Immorality Dictates Lyrics

We scorn the domesticated scholars in their unblemished, halcyon temples, isolated and confined in prisons of theory and vague conjecture.
Tempers violent.
Passions vehement.
Uncaged and unburdened, we now see clearly.
Only amidst the sea of refuse shall we find enlightenment pure.
To be righteous we must be consumed by the most profane.
And so we shall descend into the very bowels of physical consumption.
Desperately searching eyes are blinded by the wild joys of boundless pleasure, writhing in the excrement of unfettered appetite.
We revel in ecstasy of gratification, the union of opposites, the union of sames.
Mask kissing mask, image caressing image, in the sty of self-absorbed enchantment.
We are unruly beasts driven by desire.
And we delight in our filth.
We glory in the visceral, wholly-felt, wholly-witnessed.
We relish unfeeling, all-feeling detachment.
And you know that I love you.
Here and now, not forever.
I can give you the present.
I don't know about the future.

There are at least two bands with the name Thou.

1. Thou is a doom/sludge/drone metal band from Baton Rouge and New Orleans, Louisiana, USA. Their lyrics deal mostly with social decay, death, and general despair. All of their recorded music, after a period of time, is posted for free on their homepage, http://noladiy.org/thou.html.

Despite having only released five full-lengths — "Peasant", "Tyrant", "Summit", "Heathen", and "Magus" — Thou have an extensive and varied discography. The band have released several EPs, including a collection of Black Sabbath covers ("Through the Empires of Eternal Void") and splits with bands such as Kowloon Walled City, Leech, and Hell.

Thou are quite involved in the New Orleans DIY scene, and, as stated above, make all of their music available for free.

2. Another Thou is a Belgian band. Early on, they had an electro sound, but have grown to sound more along the lines of pop rock. It is said that Thou is the most underestimated band in the Belgian music scene because of their already ten year long career and with very little success. They are set to release a bunch of new songs, called "This is Not a Record," available only on the internet (iTunes, eMusic). here
