An alter ego of Doors lead singer Jim Morrison, to imitate a Native American shaman. Shamans identified strongly with an animal deity. Jim chose the lizard, which included the ability to shed his skin (leather pants, which he wore chronically). It may also be said he chose a Tyrannosaurus rex for "dinosaur fear" -- the theory that we have a genetic memory from the time when dinosaurs not only ruled the earth, but also snacked on our furry ancestors.
References to the "Lizard King" and his greeting have since appeared in pop culture and entertainment, such as role-playing and computer games, animated cartoons, comics and literature.

Get the Lizardsquad mug.Kickass thrash revival band from Kenosha, Wisconsin. They have a unique sound with their first killer album, The Onslaught, which was released independently in 2007 under the name "Lazarus". Due to a legal dispute, the band was renamed to Lazarus A.D. with the re-release of The Onslaught on Metal Blade Records in March 2009, where they achieved underground success. The band has toured with Testament, Unearth, Woe of Tyrants, and a few others. I suggest "Last Breath", "Absolute Power", "Revolution", "Rebirth", and "Forged In Blood".
