the treaty of versailles ended WWI dude, and was a prime reason for Hitler gaining power in germany to start WWII.
You're right tho, they love playing round with WWII.
Manchuria - is a Chinese country next to Japan, and was more or less the start of the Pacific War.
June - someone made a great annotation of being under bombs being dropped. Ive looked around to find when there were large scale bombings during June, but really couldn’t find anything significant
Tripoli – Apparently someone said this was a very bloody battle, where Italy was mostly involved. They commented that it was possibly the bloodiest battle of WWI…I think this guy forgot about the Battle of the Somme tho lol, that was just a tad more bloodier :p
Seville – Someone made the connection with loss from WWII. The lyric ‘theyre coming to kill us’ gives this theory a little justification.
Byzantine – A link was made as ‘we parachute to kill, for we fear the empire’ or something like that. Yet again WWII.
I think I pulled out most of the songs which relate to the bands fedish with the world wars.
The other themes I notice with Pinback besides WWII, are links to childhood, names of cities throughout Europe, and Drug experiences.
