(in my opinion) but then that's what music is isn't it, our own individual interpretation. The funny thing for me though is this, to mock or hate something.....you must first believe in it. So the people out there who try to say how fake "God" is or whatever first has to belive it in a way otherwise they wouldn't give it a second thought. (again, my opinion).

Since I don't listen to Slipknot I had to hunt down the lyrics to see the context of the lyric.
In the context of the song the
555 means a
poseur/
fake. If you ever watch
films/
tv shows, etc....you will see the
555 prefix used for
fictitious phone numbers.
Pop stars and their fans are poseurs/fake and Slipknot is supposed to be real. The song doesn't have anything to do with
Satan. Even the word
heritic in this context isn't about
Religion.
Can't tell you anything about "the mother" since I have no idea what song that is supposed to be from.
P.S. A lot of
supposed Satanic bands are not. Take for example
Slayer. They're not
Satanic, but used that to get them a lot of attention back in the day.
