More importantly, I'd like to know why Graffiti Bridge received that label if there were no explicit lyrics(and how did the Black Album not get the label). He was, after all, going through this phase when he didn't believe in cussing. I think there's a line in Joy in Repetition when he implies that cussing sounds cool, but it's really stupid.  He says "Four-letter words are seldom heard with such dignity and bite." He's talking about people who are poetic and know how to use language. They're not cussing for the sake of sounding cool, but are so cool that their cussing sounds cool. Is that clear?  The Normal Whores Club | |

How? It's generally considered that it was the PMRC's revenge against FZ for testifying against them in the PMRC congressional hearings. How else could a completely instrumental album, "Jazz From Hell" recieve an explicit LYRICS label? Certainly, the title may raise a few eyebrows, but beyond that, hmm? FZ countered with his own label, which is worth seeking out. Keep your headphones on. | |
