Re: Jim Morrison

Tool covering "Not to Touch the Earth" would be sweet. That song already sounds evil as hell...

Re: Jim Morrison

None of this will ever haoppen. This is just pure speculation.
I'm intrigued though, why not The Offspring?

Re: Jim Morrison

I honestly don't find Breaking Benjamin too terrible, i even have the album "we are not alone" copied to my ps3 (granted i didn't buy a copy, and don't listen to it too often). i'm kinda suspicious of BB being influenced by tool to some tangible degree.

more on topic, I could see the doors having an influence on tool. out of all honesty influence doesn't really imply a requisite for direct similarities, it could be something as simple as motivating them, or promoting similar ideas. the Doors influenced an entire generation of people, not just musicians.

LOL.

As i am sorta collecting metal/punk coversongs of poppy tunes i have to respect Tori Amos for doing quite the opposite by covering Slayer's "Raining Blood" on the "Strange Little Girls" album.

Ah Tori Amos is brilliant. Not awesome like Dream Theatre/Tool/NIN/etc, but still pretty good.

That has gotta be one of the best covers I've ever heard. I love that song.

It was a strange affair. Depraved and decadent.
There was a chocolate fountain, plates of fruits and twinkies, whiskey(although I called it Rye), funny cigarettes, and cases of beer brewed by blind eunichs.
And a monk got drunk.
Good times.

No autopsy was ever performed on him. I would like to know if he actually did snort h instead of coke.

Re: Jim Morrison

I believe his last days were being lived at the extremes, the place where disappointment eats away at our expectations.
A place where we think we bought the original lizard king shirt, and it turns out to be just a Sears Poncho.
To be worn by the Cosmic Jester.
"Uptown girl," they will sing.

I find she keeps people at bay.
Fuck it, for JIm, I'll throw in some Acid.
Chicago, New York, L.A., whatever, she's worldly.
Sidewalk...and so on...
Anyway, think about it.

I may have to visit some dangerous places.
But I don't mind.
I will be a shadow.
Insignificant.
Yet, efficient.

Re: Jim Morrison

I confess.
I got my hands on some money.
So, naturally, I'm back into the grip of the grape.
Yellowtail. Shiraz.
And it has spoken to me.
It says rent the Hulk.
Gobble some 'shrooms.
And create my own experience.
I'll let you know...you know, how it goes.
I'm going shopping.
I will stroll the underground economy.
I see it from here in my tree.
Shit!
This stuff gets on top on you.
It is efficient.
I like the way it crawls up my spine.
How the cortex reaches out to embrace it.
I need to sit down.
But I already am.
Where do we go from here?
