There are two versions of the Rhinoceros demo. The original Moon demo has an organ lead, the gish demo has a guitar lead.
The officially released Lull version is shorter than the Gish version, but is essentially the same song otherwise.
Lull is considered the second single/ep from Gish.
Phish has covered this song.
Billy Corgan:
-
"I recorded 17 tracks of feedback for that one. I wanted it to sound like World War I airplanes dive-bombing around
your head. I took three or four guitars and put them through a stereo vibrato; then I took about six guitars through a
Leslie going the other way. I then unblended in some guitars to smooth things out."
Billy Corgan:
-
"We mutate most of our songs sooner or later," Billy says. "'Rhinoceros,' off of Gish, is a five and a half minute song,
which just seems too long, so we've cut about two minutes out. And we like it now. I don't believe in being tied down
to anything."
