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.
pleasure heads must burn
The Plot to Blow Up the Eiffel Tower Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Flesh-heads like me just wax and melt
When my tongue touches titty's tongue in turn
Sometimes pleasure heads must burn
Pop! Pop!
I feel a little low
Buried neck-high in British snow
I feel a little low
Kiss me darling, kiss my eyes to blind
Kiss my clubs and witness what my knuckles find
Yeah! Yeah!
The lyrics to "Pleasure Heads Must Burn" by The Plot to Blow Up the Eiffel Tower are quite dark and abrasive, with themes of self-destructive behavior and the consequences that come with it. The first line, "I reckon I'm a bit too close to this one," suggests a feeling of being in over one's head or in a situation that is difficult to control. The next line, "Flesh-heads like me just wax and melt," references the fragility of the human body and how easily it can be destroyed or damaged. The following lines, "When my tongue touches titty's tongue in turn / Sometimes pleasure heads must burn," suggest a reckless and impulsive behavior that can lead to negative consequences.
The chorus of the song, "Pop! Pop! / I feel a little low / Buried neck-high in British snow / I feel a little low / Buried neck-high in British snow / Kiss me darling, kiss my eyes to blind / Kiss my clubs and witness what my knuckles find / Yeah! Yeah!" continues with the themes of self-destructive behavior and the consequences that come with it. The "Pop! Pop!" suggests a popping or bursting sensation, possibly related to getting high on drugs or engaging in dangerous behavior. The reference to being buried in British snow could be a metaphor for feeling trapped or suffocated by one's own actions. The final lines, "Kiss me darling, kiss my eyes to blind / Kiss my clubs and witness what my knuckles find / Yeah! Yeah!", suggest a desire for approval and validation, even in the midst of chaos and destruction.
