Excerpt from an interview with Trey Azagthoth of Morbid Angel on http://angemorbide.free.fr/interview24.html :

Smother: Explain the concept of lava to us.

Trey: Lava is just something funny. It's just talking about an abundant flow of energy. A vibrant flow of energy.

Smother: Where did you derive that idea?

Trey: Just because I'm silly. I like to have fun. I believe in being serious and still having fun at the same time.
