A potential title for Living Colour's new album is "The Chair in the Doorway". The band would like fans, non-fans, and photographers of all levels to submit an original image conveying their interpretation of "The Chair in the Doorway".
"The new album will be called The Chair In The Doorway," Vernon revealed. "I did a press junket for CollideØscope with Corey and whenever something was going wrong Corey would always say the chair is in the doorway. It was just one of these things he would say and I looked at him and said 'you know that thing you always say that's going to be the title of our next album.' I don't know what that means but that's it. What I like about The Chair In The Doorway is that it is a concrete image and a very real thing but why is there a chair in the door way, what does it mean? It's completely abstract, while being a contract, physical manifestation of what it is."

My idea for 'Chair in the Doorway'.
Inside a church. A priest, from behind, looking out into a war-devastated city. Behind him, inside the church, cowering children. Outside, in the doorway, swinging from a tangled parachute's ropes, a fighter jet's ejector seat, with the dead pilot still strapped to the chair. You can't see his face because of the anonymity afforded by the helmet. I can't be bothered to draw/ Photoshop all of that...but there's the idea :)
