Also Led Zeppelin: squeeze my lemon baby, 'till the juice runs down my leg
That was a reference to the Robert Johnson song Traveling Riverside Blues. Apparently Johnson might have himself taken it from a Roosevelt Sykes song.
Is that a metaphor?
Yes, it’s a little known pice of trivia actually, they were making a statement about the war
This is true. During the war the soldiers were suffering with shortages and they had low quality food. Overly filled and poor leaky lemons were rife. A lot of legs were sticky. It was Hell.
It was not a party, let me tell you. Or do a search for the ironically named “lemon party” to get the info straight from the source.
Close, but you were actually one of the lucky divisions to get even rotten lemons. Trench warfare was largely a battle of attrition and rations had to last, hot meals and fresh fruit (especially sources of vitamin c) were a luxury to be supplied with. Scurvy wasn’t uncommon. Here’s a bunch of cool links
Those are some cool links, thanks!
Also Led Zeppelin: Hobbits are pretty dope
Also: what if whales played drums
Ghost: what if satanism was mainstream
GWAR: What if we sprayed people with alien cum?
On a related note, GWAR did an NPR Tiny Desk concert. It’s really… something.
Tiny Desk concerts are a national treasure.
Exocrine : What if I became god?
Everyone should go to a gwar show
It’s pretty high on my bucket list.
I was in charge of the stage lighting in a concert they gave in Cologne, like 25 years ago.
One of my fondest memories.
Slayer: what if we took Christian mythology seriously enough to make them all very angry?
Metallica: how much money can be squeezed out of the keys of Em and Am?
MONEY GOOD!!!
Absolutely incredibly unpopular opinion, but all of these bands are terrible. I guarantee I’m getting downvoted for this comment.
I downvoted you so you can be right about something.
I downvoted you just because of the second sentence in your comment.
I downvoted you because you’re factually wrong.
Did the person who wrote this even listen to any of these bands because those descriptions read like somebody who just browsed the Wikipedia descriptions of them and their albums.
