They are designed to look like the solo albums by KISS. King Buzzo looks just Gene Simmons on the cover of his. BTW, Dale Crovers is the best of them. BK ------------------------------ From: Michael J Sharkey Subject: the wheel I saw a TV show the other day that talked about the Buddist concepts of what goes around comes around, and if you live one life like a prick, you will be something shitty in your next life. Any way, I saw this show after listening to Beyond the Wheel, and a great deal of those theories seemed to apply to the song, which I previously did not understand. Further, the Wheel on Badmotorfinger cover seems to relate to the song Beyond the Wheel. Anyone else have any ideas about beyond the wheel, and it's relation to bmf cover art? A cool band name would be Stardog, that's from the lyrics in Hunted Down. I also heard that a movie was being made with the title from a soundgarden song, but I didn't hear what song. Courtney Love is supposed to be in the movie and she said that the proposed name for the movie was, "stupid." I am done with finals!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! My life is like a ticking clock, BERSERKER! Would you like to make some fuck, BERSERKER! See ya next semester, thanks for all the Soundgarden info/commentary!!
