The rainbows represent emotions of happiness intertwined with sadness. Darkness and light in one stylised package. The yin and the yan, the impotent and the erect, the country and the western, the sheep and the farmer, the middle east and the oil hungry monkey. You see that artwork works at so many levels its incredible. Much more symbolism and depth than for example the machina artwork or the artwork to Christina Aguilera's new album. Really a technical achievement secondary only to the handwriting style font employed on Judas O to convey that bootlegged, gift to the fans emotion.

The deer was a smokescreen, it bought time while the rainbow grew and blossomed to fruition. The deer has done its job and can now be retired to the cesspit deep in Canada where deers retire to. Right as we type and read, it is choking on some Canadian poison grass. We all know who skullfisher is! Don't we! The idea was fantabulous but must one day be SPENT!! If not, if we perseverate on the old, never plunging forward to the new, what then? The old will stale, and we will be left with nothing but dried up deer jerky, improperly cooked, sitting on porcelain, dreaming of Typhoid. No my friend, me must step forward bravely into the immense world of the impotent rainbow guitar, fear not the dove of peace for it represents above all else, the juxtaposed anger inherent in songs such as Silly Sally and Chicks just get in the Way. Lest we miss these moments, and plunge deep into the media ridden pool of nitwits, searching through their thesaurusees for ways to say Zwan is happier than the Smashing Pumpkins in their reviews without sounding the same as every other review.

Lastly let me remind you all of the crack seen so clearly in the Honestly rainbow. Ponder its meaning my friends, and when you have - I will meet you on the Zboard. Adorned in gay 70s clothes and roman sandles ready to meditate on the majik that is Lettuce.

they did it because they knew it would come as a shock, homophobic tendencies would rear their ugly head, then fanboys would eventually drool all over it simply because bolly can't do anything wrong.

actually, i just got one of the Zwan shirts from a local store here(its the blue one from their online store) and it has the deer image on the back. they changed it to also have dave pajo between the deer and jimmy. so i guess Paz is the deer now.
