In the back of "The Satanic Rituals" it states, "The infant is learning to walk, and by the first Working Year of his age--that is to say 1984--he will have steadied his steps, and by the next--2002--he will have attained maturity, and his reign will be filled with wisdom, reason and delight." You released Mechanical Animals near the end of 1998, with the "I" replaced with a "1" and the "S" replaced with a "5", hence the number "15" which a child born in 1984 would have been 15 in 1999, and now "Golden Age of Grotesque" is being released soon, (2003), and if the child is born on the 19th it would make it their "golden" birthday. Is there any relation to all of this, or is it pure coinceidence? |
