''This Godless Endeavor'' is the sixth album by Seattle based American progressive metal band Nevermore and was released on July 26, 2005. The album was produced by Andy Sneap and is distributed by Century Media Records. ==Overview== Guitarist Jeff Loomis revealed in an interview that ''This Godless Endeavor'' is not a concept album but a "topic-to-topic" album, with all the songs dealing with "real life issues" that can "allegorically refer to the loss of identity, the system that we roove in, the meaning of life, the denouncement of God as a solution to all the problems that are caused by the conflicts that all the religions have initiated in various parts of the world. It's basically about human beings." One might note that the track "A Future Uncertain" has very similar lyrics and main riff to the track "World Unborn" from their 1992 demos. In the middle of the song "Sentient 6" there is a message played backwards that says "I am the bringer of the end, fear me, I am the beast that is technology." "Sentient 6" refers to a robot or an android that has been programmed to annihilate humankind, but actually envies humanity for their possession of emotion and a soul. The content is paradoxical and written from the perspective of the machine. The song also picks up lyrically where "The Learning" left off in ''The Politics of Ecstasy''. In addition, it seems to have many parallels with the story of V'ger from ''Star Trek: The Motion Picture''. The music video for "Born" premiered on the January 27, 2006 edition of ''Headbangers Ball''. It was shot by acclaimed director Derek Dale, resulting in what the band considers "a thought-provoking conceptual piece."〔(Premiere of "Born" video on Headbanger's Ball this weekend ) Nevermore.com (2006).
