And the title "My Small Percent Shows Most"  is very similar to an old Pink Floyd song, which I can't think of at the moment.  I think that one Melvins Land website has a few more examples.  

interesting stuff

speaking of old Pink Floyd songs..theirs one they play on the radio "Welcome to the Machine" I think the Melvins song "How --++--"
was inspired by the very end of that song.

I heard the entire Colossus of Destiny was a postmodern reply to the themes and ideas explored in the coming-of-age classic "Cherry Pie" by Warrant.
