concept album

well, i'm thinking a 7 song EP about roy g biv. one song for each color of the rainbow, with the tone of each song correspondoing to the color of the song.

the story: it would have to be reverse engineered from the final song "parole from rainbow prison", which i think of as emergence from imposed, artificial happiness. the first question is, how did he get into rainbow prison? did he check himself in, or was he committed?! rainbow prison is a maddening labyrinth of happiness, a nightmarish fun house of smiles and frivolous distractions... a self-imposed journey, like an odyssey or Hercules' labors story about a self-imposed punishment for some horrible crime (that may or may not have occurred, or possible was just a psychological hallucination, dreamed up atrocities by a self destructive man looking for a reason to punish&exile himself).

red- brooding, warm, irritated, itchy
"Forced Apology"
"sweat shop kiss"
"Prism Reform"

orange- heats up, sparks fly
"Daddy Was a Miner"
"potted lemon tree theory"
"a simpleton's reprise"

yellow- blinding light, speed
"sinner's palms"
"house of mathemticians"
"tulip autopsy"

green- saturation is reached, monotone intensity,
becomes silence
"Noose of Scallions"
"the correlation between revolving door hesitation and the will to live"

blue- from the stagnancy, deep tones emerge, and swell
like waves, it is an awakening
"Kissing the Square"
"gravedigger's applause"
"a waitress sighs in paradise"

indigo- staggering, now awake - winding your way out
of a strange place, with flashbacks/overtones of
orange/yellow
"aftertaste"
"rescinded prayer"
"cash-back confessions"

violet- "parole from rainbow prison"
