Their reputation for leaving people cheated or impregnated with obsession has now turned the world on it's ears. For the Plot the payoff is big; "Love in the Fascist Brothel" has that magical quality that drives people on to the stage and into the sweaty dance pit every night. That coupled with critical attention overseas and around the globe has international bands and journalists eagerly interested in all of their 2005 excursions to the UK, Europe, Asia, Australia, and their extensive tour of North America.
Their second-to-last release was an EP titled "INRI", on Art Fag Records.
On September 26th, 2006, The Plot announced via a Myspace bulletin that their then-current U.S tour would be the band's last before disbanding. Their final show was in their hometown of San Diego, and a posthumous release of a seven-song mini-LP entitled "Saviors & Suckers" on Three One G records was in the works, but Three One G has since said they will not be releasing the title.
Some members have formed Crocodiles.
Lawnmower Love
The Plot to Blow Up the Eiffel Tower Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Cuz bodies in the parking lot help you to maintain your figure
Your newsprint is bringing them to new erotic heights
Sweating while they read it undercovers each as every night
All the little girls want your lawnmower love
The lyrics of Lawnmower Love by The Plot to Blow Up the Eiffel Tower are both intriguing and mysterious. The first two lines of the song seem to suggest that the singer may be a hitman who derives pleasure from killing people. The reference to "manly hands on the trigger" implies that the singer is skilled at using guns, while the line "bodies in the parking lot help you to maintain your figure" suggests that he is constantly on the move, killing people and disposing of their bodies to avoid detection. The second verse of the song suggests that the singer is also a writer, possibly a journalist, who writes articles that are both provocative and erotic, causing readers to sweat with anticipation and excitement.
The chorus of the song, "All the little girls want your lawnmower love," is enigmatic and difficult to decipher. One possible interpretation of this line is that the singer is so charismatic and attractive that all women are drawn to him, like moths to a flame. The reference to "lawnmower love" is also puzzling; it could suggest something violent or destructive, like a lawnmower cutting through grass, or it could be a euphemism for something sexual. The song as a whole is open to many interpretations and encourages the listener to engage with the themes and imagery in their own way.
