Today's Metal Track comes from A Perfect Circle off of their 2003 album 13th Step. This concept album revolves around the various processes of addiction. 13th step is a reference to the 12 step program used in Alcoholics Anonymous.
The songs on the album are sung form different perspectives. Some from the user, some from the drug, and some from outsiders. This song is from the perspective of a heroin user as evident in the line "Jam another dragon down the hole" which is a reference to chasing the dragon or trying to reach that first high experienced from your first dose.
Exploring Heavy Metal and all its glory. Heavy Metal is often misunderstood and thought to be just a bunch of guys banging and screaming when in fact it can be extremely thoughtful, intelligent, and sincere. Expect some throw-down-head-banging, chill mood metal, and gloomy death metal that you're probably not going to hear on the radio. On the weekends we'll mix things up with a Weekend Wildcard and an Easy Like Sunday Morning Track to get you over your hangover!
