Well, RATM was always a political band. It's hard to have really have deep, metaphorical lyrics when most of your songs are political rants. Some of Zach's lyrics were pretty clever, and a lot of RATM songs had really catchy choruses that still made good points.

A lot of Kurt's lyrics were just stoned nonsense, but that's kinda what I like about them. They don't make a lot of sense, so they're pretty wide open to interpretation and they're easy to mold into something that you can relate to.

I like Nikki Sixx because he actually writes about his problems that is in a way that doesn't go out to the world and say "I wanna kill the world"!

Steven Tyler writes most of them (The most apparent being the Draw the Line album where most of the lyrics are him bitching about the rest of the band) Perry chips in from time to time.

Actually, I'm female.

One last thing, jibber, before we can get back on topic: Tyler8Durden, I don't think you'd really hate to see my CD collection. From what I know, we share a few favorites.

I'd like to add the older Metallica and Manson, along with Tori Amos, to my list.
