Hello my friends! Who can understand background words/quote from 4-05 to 4-20 of "All Hail The New Flesh" song??? Nobody nows that? And where this quote was taken from? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FfQe1TZOImQ

I've never been able to completely make it out but there is something about a "body of water", it sounds like a news report

^Yep, though at the beginning it mentions floods, the last line saying something like "a whole body of water will swell upon the earth".

Come to think of it, that bit sounds more like some evangelical rant.

Hey, I found something too about it! Well, the actual song title itself, "All hail the new flesh," is a direct quote from a Cult film from the 80s called "Videodrome," starring James Woods and Debbie Harris (aka, 'Blondie,' the frontwoman from Blondie). Godflesh has also used that exact same quote many times too.

So, maybe it's a quote from that movie? Who saw it recently? Or maybe you can find out some script/quots in the web? What do you all think about it?

This song is one of the most SYL popular and we must find the truth! Let me know!

OR, Bookwyrm83 mantioned "sounds like some evangelical rant" and "a whole body of water will swell upon the earth" - So maybe it's a quote from The Holy Bible and Noah's ark? It makes sense, what do you think of it?

HEY, I've got it!!! So, Quote (in the middle) was taken from Plato's record of a dialogue between Timaeus and several others, including (maybe) Socrates. It's a fragment about the destruction of Atlantis: according to Perseus online,

"[But at a later time there occurred] portentous earthquakes and floods, and one grievous day and night befell them, when the whole body of your warriors was swallowed up by the Earth, [and the island of Atlantis in like manner was swallowed up by the sea and vanished; wherefore also the ocean at that spot has now become impassable and unsearchable, being blocked up by the shoal mud which the island created as it settled down.]"

So, in ALL HAIL THE NEW FLESH quote is: "... portentous earthquakes and floods, and one grievous day and night befell them, when the whole body of your warriors was swallowed up by the Earth".

To finish CITY album lyrics we need to find
1. The outro from 3-30 of "Oh my f*** God" (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xnoXJy9mjmE). It sounds like: "Perfect [it's in reverse]
"…............ Strapping Young Lad"

2 ."Japan (bonus track)" (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M3Yc9ZrjSko)
The background lyrics (in R-channel only) from 3-18 to 3-53
It sounds like:".... . ..... And I wanna........I die.......Ouh, yeah, ah!"

Booklet. google don't have it at all!! Please, let me know, if somebody will find out some more of words/quotes/even letters...
