Tab Discussion, Comments, and Critiques


No Picture ALEX Lead Player	#1 by ALEX FOWLER at Jan 5, 1970 at 1:29 PM EST
	Opticon is possibly derived from the Panopticon which was a design for a prison system where by one person could see all the prisoners without being seen and eventually the mere idea of being watched would control them thus negating the need for even one person to watch, its about how fashion or anything like that is a control mechanism we are seeing things and conforming to it without question and for no real decent reason. Fashion is the guard in the tower watching us the prisoners of society and we are willingly being a part of it.

No Picture ben Rhythm Player	#2 by ben kurkul at Sep 18, 1977 at 2:54 AM EST
	opticon is the eye that sees the paranoid

No Picture joel Average	#3 by joel christman at Jan 21, 1989 at 10:04 AM EST
	This song sounds very industrial. It reminds me of the corporate failure Enron (it's monopolization, domination, and eventual bankrupcy)

No Picture foster Average	#4 by foster meng at Apr 16, 1990 at 4:17 PM EST
	Damn. Sorry about the repetition.

No Picture Adrian Lead Player	#5 by Adrian Ortega at Sep 18, 1996 at 5:09 AM EST
	I think it's more about the youth influenced by TV and media. They tell them how to dress, what to do, where to go, etc. "Opticon" will be a word to resume "T.V., radios, magazines, etc". The kids imitate the people they watch on all this stuffs (So quick to change us and imitate us). If the parents don't give kids education, they become like this. And then the parents got scared about his children using piercings and weird haircuts. (Those neon eyes make mom and dad think that we've lost our minds. They're just terrified of all new things). Anyway... AWESOME SONG!!!!!!!!

No Picture Jimmy Rhythm Player	#6 by Jimmy at Jan 3, 2000 at 2:55 PM EST
	Opticon is about the way Orgy dresses, their style and how people might jump to conclusions about how they dress (mainly their sexuality).
