songs, albums, and artists mentioned by eric and dylan
- “KMFDM is a favorite of mine” he said in his 25 things essay.
- He writes the song title "Kein Mitlied"
- He writes the lyrics to the songs "Son of a Gun", “Waste" and "Stray Bullet”
- Eric quoted Anarchy in Nate Dykeman's yearbook
- He also quoted Dogma in Dylan's yearbook
- Eric wore a black KMFDM shirt for their 1997 album and tour “Symbols”.
A crazy coincidence, the album “Adios” was released on April 20, 1999, the same day as the Columbine massacre. Adios, meaning “goodbye”, is eerily reminiscent of how 15 people died, including the two shooters, who were fans of the band.
- Like with KMFDM there is evidence Eric translated lyrics to the following Rammstein songs: Du Hast Du Riechst So Gut, Engle, Guilty, Herzleid, Kokain, Heirate Mich, Buck Dich, Tier, Bestrafe Mich, Klavier, Wilder Wein, Weises Fleisch.
- Eric also had a Rammstein sticker in the rear window of his car and had a Rammstein T-Shirt on in his Junior year school picture
- Eric referred to the Nine Inch Nails song “Closer” in his journal during a rant about wanting violent sex with a woman, and that it was the "perfect song for me" in November 1998.
- Eric writes in 'You know what I love' rant that he loved The Prodigy
- Eric left the "Fly CD" to Susan in his will during one of the Basement Tapes (Fly - Bombthreat Before She Blows)
- There was a sketch found in one of Eric Harris's notebooks that referenced “Ich Bin Ein Auslander” by Pop Will Eat Itself
- Dylan writes "Chemical Brothers" in his journal. He references "Loops of Fury", a Chemical Brothers EP
- Lyrics to the song "Guilty by Gravity Kills" are printed in his journal.
- Dylan writes "Life is sweet Daft Punk Mix" - Daft Punk remix of Chemical Brothers - Life Is Sweet
- Dylan writes “Chicos Groove – The Chemical Brothers” in his journal.
- Dylan wore a red Chemical Brothers shirt with a rainbow across the chest for their song “Setting Sun.” He also wore a grey Chemical Brothers shirt for their album “Dig Your Own Hole”.
- Dylan writes ‘NIN’ Nine Inch Nails at the bottom of his journal
- He mentions "Downward Spiral", the NIN album, and often draws spirals in his journal and in his school planner
- He mentions the song Hurt
- Dylan is seen wearing a grey NIN shirt for their album “The Downward Spiral” towards the end of the “Eric at Columbine” home video.
- Dylan also references other NIN songs such as "Now I'm Nothing", “Happiness in Slavery”, “Something I can never have", and “Piggy".
- In his planner, Dylan writes “I’m not a trendy asshole don’t give a fuck if its good enuf for you”. These are lyrics from The Offspring song “Smash”
- Dylan quoted the lyrics from “Beautiful” by the Smashing Pumpkins. He also owned their album “Siamese Dream.” (Fun Fact: Eric disliked the Smashing Pumpkin, and jokingly referred to them as the “Ghashing Bumpkins”).
- "Rammstein" is mentioned in Dylans journal. One of the boys purchased "Stripped" CD.
- Dylan writes "KMFDM - Brute" in his journal. He also wore a KMFDM shirt for their album XTORT in his “interview.”
- White Zombie - Black Sunshine: Dylan writes that this song should be played over the "hate" section of his website.
- They Might Be Giants - Particle Man: Dylan wrote for it to be played over the "hacking" section of his webpage
- Alice In Chains - I Stay Away: Dylan wrote that this was to be played over the "other cool mus." section of his webpage.
- 2Pac - Hit 'Em Up - the lyrics are written (incorrectly) in Dylan's school planner.
THE MARILYN MANSON DEBATE
Did Eric and Dylan actually listen to Marilyn Manson? Friends of the two boys have denied that they were fans of his. And while there is no actual evidence to suggest that they did listen to his music, Dylan did have a poster of him in his room.
“Mrs. Klebold indicated that Dylan had a poster of Marilyn Manson and that she asked him about it, and in particular asked him what it meant. Dylan had told her that it didn't mean anything and that he didn't really listen to lyrics of Marilyn Manson music, however, did listen to the music.” (Columbine; Jeff Kass).
Additionally, Eric apparently did sometimes listen to Manson, given that he had written M.M- initials in his journal.
This behaviour seems kind of odd for people who “weren’t fans” of at least SOME of Marilyn Mansons music, but I digress.
