The "Spiritual Black Dimensions" album by Dimmu Borgir, cuz I was listening the crap out of that album at that time. It was released 1 march '99. Other than that; Godlike and Son of a Gun by KMFDM.

This is a silly one: "Under Presure" by David Bowie and Freddie Mercury.
A duet about 2 guys, under pressure, whining about love. First imagine Dylan as Bowie and Eric as Freddie. The switch it up and picture Freddie's voice coming out of Dylans mouth. And of course they are singing at mics wearing thier trench coats and backward caps.
I am sure the boys would be mortified at this mental picture, but it does give me a laugh.

KMFDM - sycophant, no real meaning in the lyrics that relate to the massacre its just a song that when its played I think of 4/20/99 the album adios was released that day as well maybe that has something to do with it and Eric mentioning the coincidence of it. But sycophant is my favorite song on the adios album and it was released 4/20/99 so it just fits even though it is a slower hypnotic tune, not something most would relate to a massacre,

Rammstein-Mein herz brennt Somehow makes me think of them whenever i listen tot it. Also Engel, for obvious reasons. I'll go and see Rammstein live next month; i don't want to, but probably can't help thinking about E&D at some point during the show. Probably when they play Engel.

I was playing this for my six-month-old the other day and really HEARD the lyrics for maybe the first time. I mean, it's probably just about a break-up or something banal like that....but really LISTEN.

Also definitely “Torn”by Creed:
Peace is what they tell me Love am I unholy Lies are what they tell me Despise you that control me
The peace is dead in my soul I have blamed the reasons for My intentions poor Yes I'm the one who The only one who Would carry on this far
Torn, I'm filthy Born in my own misery Stole all that you gave me Control you claim you save me
The peace is dead in my soul I have blamed the reasons for My intentions poor Yes I'm the one who The only one who Would carry on this far
Peace in my head Love in my head Lies lies lies lies in my head.
The peace is dead in my soul I have blamed the reasons for My intentions poor Yes I'm the one who The only one who Would carry on this far
The peace is dead in my soul I have blamed the reasons for My intentions poor Yes I'm the one who The only one who Would carry on this far
And although neither boy was religious a few of the lines in “My Own Prison” by Creed are also relatable. Creed was pretty big in the late 90’s, especially on radio. This CD was released in 1997; wonder if either boy heard either song?

Rammstein's "Engel" and "Du Hast" and Marilyn Manson's "The Beautiful People" and "Sweet Dreams", though only because they were in SCMRPG.

Phantom Bride by Deftones. Hearing it like a million times while making my Eric compilation video has associated it permanently with Columbine.

I've posted songs in here before although it's been some time. I normally associate songs from the mid to late 90's with Columbine. My brother was class of 99 [not at Columbine] and I was two years earlier. I feel I can relate to that era being close in age.
At any rate I like to listen to metal covers and one of my favorite is a solo artist named Leo Moracchioli. I came across a cover of the Verve-Bittersweet symphony and it reminded me of E & D.

Radio Dept.'s - A Token of Gratitude It makes me think of all the innocence lost on the occasion almost a feeling of the final night before the madness, the anticipation of the boys & perhaps their private doubts one last night of normalcy for every person caught up in the event before everything changed.

Death by Cop - NegativeXP, even though it has footage of the hollywood shooting, I feel it reminds me of Eric's (sorta) plan to be killed by cops, or that he felt like he would. (who wouldn't?)

For some reason I've been listening to Bones Library Suicide, I don't understand why, I don't even like rap unless its rap rock, maybe its because it makes me think about Columbine and Eric and Dylan after their suicides deeply? Idk, but for some reason I just like it I jsut can't seem to figure out why.

Texas Is The Reason - Back And To The Left
This song really reminds me of Eric and Dylan in general.
Lyrics:
This town was built on miles of hope And I dare you to give one reason to stay And maybe I won't go away
So far you only dared me once And I think we know that's not even close enough Not enough for me to stay
It costs so much I know But I guess I need to know What it would have felt like to be right
But I'm getting tired all over again So hurry up and get here because I'm still waiting... Just like I've always been
I'm getting tired of standing around Just sitting here and waiting to be found Same old shit just a different day
I'll wait around for one more day But I know that's what I will always say Will this ever be O.K.?
Hey now, we'll be around for one more day Hey now, we'll be around for one more day
I will always worry about you I will always stick up for you I will always worry about you I will always stick up for you

Definitely not the type of music Eric and Dylan listened to as far as I'm aware but Van Der Graaf Generator's "Man-Erg" is a brilliant progressive rock song that seems to be about someone similar in nature to the two.
The killer lives inside me: I can feel him move. Sometimes he's lightly sleeping in the quiet of his room, But then his eyes will rise and stare through mine, He'll speak my words and slice my mind inside. The killer lives. The angels live inside me: I can feel them smile, Their presence strokes and soothes the tempest in my mind And their love can heal the wounds that I have wrought. They watch me as I go to fall, well, I know I shall be caught, For the angels live. How can I be free? How can I get help? Am I really me? Am I someone else? But stalking in my cloisters hang the acolytes of gloom And Death's Head throws his cloak onto the corner of my room and I am doomed, But laughing in my courtyard play the pranksters of my youth And solemn, waiting Old Man in the gables of the roof, he tells me truth And I, too, live inside me and very often don't know who I am, I know, I'm not a hero, I hope that I'm not damned I'm just a man, and killers, angels, all are these, Dictators, saviors, refugees In war and peace As long as Man lives I'm just a man, and killers, angels, all are these, Dictators, saviors, refugees

Basically anything off of Symbols, XTORT, Herzeleid & Sehnsucht.. I say this because those were the albums that Eric seemed to primarily listened to.. and I can't blame him cause they're actually really good

Camber - Temporary Thought this stuff would set us up. All this seemed so necessary. Thought this stuff would set us up. Would set us up. We set us up.
All that shit dragged from the past. All that stuff was tertiary. All that stuff just held us down. It held us down.
It left us here reaching out. It left us cold. It left us here broken down. When what we needed was the thing we can't get back. It left us cold. Was the thing we can't get back. No we can't get.
Thought these things could fill us up. All these things were temporary. Thought these things could fill us up. Could fill us up. We set us up.
All the things we thought could last. Fatal fall the corollary. All these things they held us down. They held us down.
It left us here bleeding out. It left us old. It left us here full of doubt. What we conceded was the thing we can't get back. It left us old. Was the thing we can't get back. It left us here with the thing we can't get back.

The Offspring - The Kids Aren't Alright
I was not a big fan of grunge music and sometime in 2000 I was at a girls place and she had this song playing. From the first time I heard it and up until this day, it makes me think of Harris and Klebold.

a lot of glitchy songs remind me of the chaos in E&Ds head as for specific songs mostly nine inch nails hurt or in a warm place (in a warm place reminds me of there suicide and the aftermath of the massacre) and kmfdm reminds me of the rage and violence they felt
