How'd I wind up here.. had this Van Halen - Summer nights song in my head.. check it out. Recalled the album cover. I ask Bing about it. That's Atlas.. the back cover the big globe is cracked and he's under it. You know this type of stuff is the cabal coming up with the album cover ideas. These guys wouldn't be thinking of shit like greek gods, ok.. they're into that, not these types of band guys.
I ask bing AI about this greek story. A lot of this stuff.. Then you get that inferno guy like in those movies there about these guys. Yeah, Hades.. that sounds like hell. This atlas guy though.. wasn't holding up the globe.. he was holding up the sky. How do you even do that. Kinda neat though about this story of medusa.. then this fuckin guy turns to rock and it's mountains now.. like WTF. And then this guy too was involved in Atlantis.. they're all into that shit.
What if all this greek god stuff, they were like other beings, that were real.. back in those days. Wouldn't surprise me. lol.

Remember this was WB label.. so those guys in charge. What kinds of things do you see in this imagery, right. I thought about the "atlas shrugged".. like what's that even about. They're into that shit though, eh.
"Atlas Shrugged is a novel by Ayn Rand, published in 1957. It is her longest and most famous work, and the one she considered her masterpiece. It is a philosophical fiction that explores the themes of reason, individualism, capitalism, and Objectivism, Rand’s own philosophy. The novel depicts a dystopian America where productive people go on strike against a corrupt and oppressive government. The novel has been influential on many libertarian and conservative thinkers, but also controversial and criticized by many others1"
The band wouldn't be using no Atlas shit on their own. That's those guys at the label, I bet.

Searching for: meaning of atlas shrugged
Generating answers for you…
The title Atlas Shrugged is a reference to a Greek myth. Atlas was a Titan who had to hold the world on his shoulders as a punishment. The novel suggests that Atlas should shrug off the world and let it fall. This symbolizes the idea that the productive people of society should stop supporting the parasites who exploit them. The book explores the philosophy of Objectivism, which values reason, individualism, and capitalism12
So what are they trying to say here with this album cover, right. Where, on the back the globe falls on him and cracks.
