We know that Dylan was a fan of Atari Teenage Riot, because he draw their logo into his schoolplanner as well he wrote down an lyric-excerpt from their song “Atari Teenage Riot”: “Power for those who can fuck it, Freedom for those can find it, Sex for those who can buy it!”. I don’t know, what releases of them he specificially heard and/or bought, but since the song was on their first Album “Delete Yourself”, I assume that he had that one (the song also was released as a single though).
Anyway, another song on this Album is “Into the Death” and I think the lyrics actually do a good job on catching Dylans mindset.
At first the title “Into the Death” represents what Dylan came to crave the most and during the song it is repeteadly shouted, almost like an order or some sort of brainwashing propaganda. 
Also noteworthy is that the lyrics are calling on the listener to revolt and take violent action, while at the same time emphasize the hopelessness of his situation. I think that is something, Dylan definitive could identifiy with: “Terror worldwide! you can’t run away, you can’t hide! I came to get you! get down (…) There’s no escape from where you coming from; we’re going to the top where we belong!” The “we’re going to the top where we belong!” line almost sounds exactly like something I’d imagine Eric might say to Dylan. 
Some more lines that present what I’m talking about: “Maybe we sit down and talk about the revolution and stuff but it doesn’t work like that! You can’t turn back now, there’s no way back! You feel the power to destroy your enemy!”
Quite some motivating lines when you’re planning an attack, eh? 
And there is another line that almost could be the chore-line of how Dylan felt towards his human life on earth: “Life is like a Videogame with no chance to win…”
But the similarities do not even end here. As you will know, Dylan did not only seek death and destruction during the attack, but believed that he would spend the afterlife in a heavenly place with his love. Well, during one point at the song, the female singer Hanin Elias tells us in a quite erotic voice: “And welcome to my Paradise…there’s no good reason to keep you alive, die die die, my darling…”. The “welcome to my paradise”-line sounds like she is telling the listener, that he will enter the named paradise after death, which kinda reminds me of the 72 virgins that are believed to wait for Martyrs in extremist Islam.
