it's about the titanic. obviously eveerything was free, it was a rich cruise. "the band plays a hopeful tune" talks about the ands that kept playing, despite sinking. and if you look at the back(?)of the cd/dvd case, there's a boat that had run into a building in the middle of the water that cleary resembles the iceburg.
Well, that describes a lot of parties, sans the iceberg.Even if they did use the titanic as an example, that could have been a reference to life and society. Think, the titanic was a boat that was expected to run beautifully and accommodate all it's guests with the greatest of pleasures. Just like America, and our democratic system is. Of course, the titanic hit an iceberg and several died. We've hit quite the economic dark days, and because of this we have homeless/unemployed people, unjust and untimely death.

Down there, mr. fakeblood has a good idea too. You have to explain "the world that they built". Also, the titanic hit an iceberg, it didn't explode. A7X doesn't just throw in lyrics for the hell of it (except for "yeah" They do that alot) and you didn't have an explanation for the Time bomb stanza up there. A lot of A7X can be related to another story, and they make great use of allusions. I can't count the number of bible stories A7X has made into songs. That doesn't mean that those songs are specifically about them. Bat country references a movie "Fear and Loathing in las vegas" by Hunter S. Thompson, and it has several quotes from it (it's actually sung about the main character). Ever head the quote "We can't stop here, this is bat country"? But like I said, the songs aren't EXACTLY about those allusions, and could simply be trying to reinforce any messages they found in the stories themselves. Good examples
Chapter Four(Story of Cain and abel): Warning against the practice of murder
Bat Country(Fear and loathing in las vegas): Warning against drug abuse
Beast and the Harlot(The fall of babylon): Warning against fornication outside of marriage
