“Elimination” was motivated by the scare of the AIDS epidemic. I guess this was ‘89 and we were a touring band. Everything had changed for the human race sexually, because they were getting a handle on what was going on, and nobody was immune to this. When the band had started in the early '80s, AIDS was “the gay cancer.” But by '89, people had a better view of it: it wasn’t a gay disease, it was a human disease. The idea behind “Elimination” was to say, “This is about us, it’s not about you or about you, it’s about us collectively.”
