Youtube Art
Tool's "Prison Sex" was banned from Mtv and radio because of its graphic depiction of child abuse. I think that the small broken doll in the video represents the abused child. It's legeshave been removed so it can't get away. The big dark figure represents the abusing parent. The child tries to climb to its legs in order to run away but the parent catches it before it can get very far. The child then feigns sleep in hopes the parent will leave it alone. This is a very disturbing picture being painted, but it is a point that needs to be raised. Just because it is ugly doesn't mean that it should be ignored.
