gala_applesI need to stop trying to make concept albums fit together. First the Linkin Park one, which really isn't that bad of a fit, honestly. But then I keep finding KJ references in Dropkick's newest cd. And then last night I had this dream...
(following text cp'd from wiki, but I've loved this cd and it's idea for nearly a decade now)
A substance addicted glam rocker and a gender ambiguous Alien called Omēga who, much like David Bowie's Ziggy Stardust, falls down to earth, is captured, placed with a band called The Mechanical Animals and turned into a rock star product. He has become numb to the world through excessive drug use as a coping mechanism with his life as a product of his corporate masters. The other role is that of Alpha. Acting as Omēga's foil, Alpha's emotions have only begun seeping back. Vulnerable and trying to relearn how to use them properly, he despairs about how little emotion other people feel, observing them to be "mechanical animals". Both are looking to come back into the world - looking among the mechanical animals for the thing they need to make themselves whole. They call it Coma White, unsure if she is real or simply a drug induced hallucination.
It would be so beautiful, Omega and the Mechanical Animals as a BLI sponsored band, but Omega becomes Alpha and runs to the zones trying to find his Coma White just like how Party Poison probably tried to find Doctor Death Defying.
The CD has hidden liner notes. I take them as more proof: We were hardworn, atomatic and as hollow as the 'o' in God/ I reattatched my emotions cellular and narcotic/ From the top of Holywood it looked like space/ Millions of capsules and Mechanical Animals/ A city filled with dead stars and a girl I called Comawhite.
Seriously. Drugs, soulless people, no faith, a ruined city, a little girl he must have faith in. I want this as much as I wanted the Spice Girls one.
