Has anyone noticed that the new album is far druggier and experimental than albums past? Do you think the band experimented with psychedelics at all during the making of this album?

Yeah, those things you just mentioned, plus a lot of the guitar effects and also song structures just scream "psychedelics" to me.

Boom has probably smoked some of the most amazing shit on the face of the planet. I would LOVE to just chill next to Boom on the beach, smoke a fatty, and listen to music with him. :shock:

Well, Ed never specifically mentions acid. What're some other drugs he could be referencing? Peyote?

Doing drugs before writing??? This isn't the doors, the reason they're still around is cause of the lack of drugs!

Shrooms, MDMA, PCP, heroin, cocaine, or meth?

I think Severed Hand is definitely talking about a psychedelic of sorts.

in their late 30's, early 40's, with kids, families and other responsibilities, i don't think these guys indulge that much anymore. i have no reason to say so, but i do remember hearing jeff say they did all that when they were young and that eddie mentioned its difficult to smoke up after roskilde because he can't keep his brain from going to dark places.

based on ed's lyric in Last Exit referencing LSD i would say he's done his share of acid. You don't have to be on a drug to write about

Ed solicited acid from the crowd at the Slim's show in 93.

He asked for it for free. He did say that if they wrote a song while on it and it made the album, they'd give the person who gave it to them credit in the liner notes.
