about

What choices do we have in life? If there’s nothing we can do about war; if TV conditions our thoughts; if social determinism narrows our every decision; if people who are different are necessarily rejected; if we are just products on the market; if everyday is just about making money out of a boring job; do we really have more choices than the mosquito who is doomed to suck as much blood as he can – just like any other mosquito – and then die. Is it in our very nature to make war, be competitive and reject things we do not understand? I guess most of us are just mosquitoes. But I am also convinced that each one of us can decide to live differently. I will not tell you that one man/woman is enough to change the world (many people have tried that, and it didn’t work). But it is absolutely true that everyone can change his own life, his own personal world. Every single one of us can decide to lead an authentic life. Refuse to take the gun. Don’t buy the screen dream. Learn everything you can. Search for changes and differences, don’t avoid them. And never ever sell yourself for anything. Find joy in everything you do: your job, your relationships… everything… or change it. Be an anti-kamikaze. Be free (but not at the cost of others’ freedom). Let the profit-driven psychos fight each other: they will extinguish soon enough. And even if they don’t, you will have no regrets regarding the life you have led. This life is the life we are trying to achieve through music. This text is what we are trying to express through our songs. If it made you think or if it gave you ideas, we hope you will be able to create even more beautiful things than us. And if you have read this far: thank you.

lyrics

all the other insects they hate me
they say I’m weak, I’m not mean, I’m not even angry
all the other insects think I’m a shame
they say I am a corrupted specimen

all the others say I am adopted
they say I should crave blood like babies suck milk
all the other insects think I’m a shame
they say that I should stop thinking by myself

so everyday and every night and every hour
they transmit me a message
and everyday and every night and every hour
the message says, it says:

"the enemy is everyone but your own kin
and now you got to steal, and now you got to kill
for the survival of the race, you got to be a kamikaze"

but I got wings, I can fly away
I got wings, I can do it my own way
I got wings, I don’t have to join the army

the enemy is nobody
the enemy is nobody

the enemy is nobody
you got to be an anti-kamikaze

banish all armies
