Quina puta ironía
que el bàndol que em diu nazi,
colpista i terrorista
acte seguit no condemni el feixisme,
recolzi actes de grups neonazis
i proposi idees nacionalistes autoritaries
(ENG)
So fucking ironic
That the side that calls me a Nazi,
Coup plotter and a terrorist
Then won't condemn fascism,
Supports acts by neo-Nazi groups
And proposes authoritarian nationalist ideas
Explanation:
Quite obviously about the Spanish Right to Far-right section of the political spectrum.
The title is a bit of wordplay: the word boc means buck/male goat (bocs being plural) and bocs sounds suspiciously similar to a political party i won't name here.

Have you considered what you can bring as a parent?
Can you finantially and emotionally support your child?
Will you actually love them unconditionally?
Will you accept that they’ll grow into actual people?
Are you ready to handle that they might have actual issues?
Are you aware of the impact that bringing a new life can have on the planet?
Hitting and insulting your child are not valid ways to parent
Them having your genes doesn’t make you entitled to anything
You need patience to raise a whole ass human being
None of us ever chose to be alive
Explanation:
About all the people that have children without taking into account if they're ready to be parents who actually care for their children as well as a reminder that we don't choose to be born, so we don't really owe our birth to anyone, it's their job to care for us. We'll be grateful if we are given reasons to do so.
Too many times i've seen people have children either because of social pressure or because of purely selfish reasons.
Those are the types of parents that you can easily see on r/insaneparents, but sadly also on the streets, on your own block and even in your own family. Sometimes we forget that shitty people are everywhere.
The title refers to the "before you decide to abort" slogan i've seen used sometimes by the "pro-life" gang.

Brutally contaminant industry
Profiting off animal suffering
Savage murder to satisfy
The tastebuds of our species
We don’t need it anymore
We don’t have to hunt to live
At this point it’s just an excuse
If you feel bad it’s your own fault
Explanation:
Very obviously about the meat industry, not much to say about it.
The last verse is directed at people who say "vegans make me feel bad for eating meat". If you feel bad it's not because of us, but because you understand our reasoning. If you didn't care about animals or if you thought that they didn't feel pain, you would simply not agree and that's it.
Obviously not everyone can be a vegan (poverty, lack of resources, ACTUAL health issues...), but people who can are the main problem.

Explanation:
Sometimes i want to scream. The world is stressful, exhausting, depressing and irritating.
Also, that vocal sample at the beginning is Lia saying "Mom, I'm sorry" right before we recorded our second layer of guitars and screams.

Militars amb interessos
Restes d’un règim totalitari
Ideòlegs reaccionaris
Amb fòbia a perdre poder
Es renten la cara com si res
Sempre i quan es mantingui l’ordre
Només és frau quan perden ells
Llavors cal agafar control
(Lia)
Detencions, cop d’estat
Estat d’alerta, censura de l’oposició
I et diran que és per defensar la democràcia
(ENG)
Military with interests
Remnants of a totalitarian regime
Reactionary ideologues
With a phobia of losing power
They wash their faces like nothing
As long as order is maintained
It’s only fraud when they lose
Then they need to take control
(Lia)
Arrests, coup
On alert, censorship of the opposition
And they will tell you that it is to defend democracy
Explanation:
Originally about the situation on Myanmar, but i see way too many parallels with other countries with inner conflicts.
The title can be translated to "When bipartisanship breaks" and it refers to the fear that waaay too many governments have to the idea of not being in a bipartisan system, the complexities of which i won't get into here.

Naraka

(ENG)
Something we once did
Must have been pretty fucked up
Maybe it’s all the power hunger
Maybe it’s our greed
The force that drove our species
To the self-destructive spiral whe now inhabit
How long until we can get out
Are we stuck here forever?
Are we digging our pit even deeper
We’re in Hell, we’re in fucking Hell
We’re in Hell, we’re in fucking Hell
Naraka
Explanation:
Naraka (or Neraka in some places) is essentially Buddhist Hell.
The idea is that there you pay for the sins you commited in life until you're pure again with highly personalized punishments.
Taking that concept, i put the idea of Earth being Hell and that, for things to be this bad, we must have been some real fucking garbage people.
Life is purgatory and you leave when you die.
The third, fourth and fifth line refer to an argument i have seen made by religious conservatives claiming that some sins are acceptable in low doses because they have helped humanity grow. Specifically, i'm referring to their argument for greed, because i don't think our economy should be driven by it.

Que cadascú es miri els seus propis genitals i em deixi
Queda’t dins el teu propi compartiment i calla
Que només tinc un motiu per ser aquí no involucra a ningú més que a mi
Deixa’m pixar en pau
No miris a la meva puta vida, a tu què t’importa a qui em follo
No és cosa de ningú mentre sigui capaç de consentir o dir que no
Tinc dret a tenir gustos i tinc dret a tenir fetitxos,
igual que tu tens dret a reprimir-te si vols
Si no t’agrada, ningú t’obliga a mirar
Si no és del teu gust, no tens per què comentar
I si et mola no cal que em diguis res
(ENG)
Everyone look at your own genitals and leave me be
Stay in your own compartment and shut up
I only have one reason to be here and it doesn't involve anyone other than me
Let me pee in peace
Don't look at my fucking life, why do you care about who I fuck
It’s nobody’s bussiness as long as they're able to consent or say no
I have a right to have tastes and I have a right to have fetishes,
Just like you have the right to repress yourself if you want to
If you don't like it, no one is forcing you to look
If it's not to your liking, you don't have to comment
And if you're into it, you don't have to say anything
Explanation:
Another obvious one.
The title kinda means "I can't believe i still have to say these things".
First verse is about all the people that care way too much about where you take a piss or shit (aka. transphobes).
Second verse is about both homphobes and kinkshaming (again, people being intrusive).
Last one is basically me saying that if you have a problem with who i am or the things i like, well it's not your bussiness anyway, so shut up. And also don't fetishize my (or anyone's) orientation and/or gender, it's dehumanizing and gross.

Take-over by fascists
Supposed defenders of the good way
The proper way to make democracy
The one where we’re all silent
When far-right is called center
We should all be afraid
Extremes don’t touch each other
Proof is how much we make each other sick
Radicality’s not the way?
Well it’s not like centrism ever got us anywhere
Silence makes you complicit
Inaction will be the end of us all
It’s only terrorism if they were foreign
Domestic terrorists if they’re left wing
How can you say with a straight face
That militarists are peaceful and pacifists are trying to cause war?
Claims of necessary foreign intervention
Instauration of a different government
Stealing their resources
While selling weapons on both sides of the war
We need a revolution
They deserve violent retribution
I’m tired of their lies and deceit
To rebuild we must first destroy
Explanation:
I guess this is kind of a call to revolution, to overthrow the ruling class.
i mention fascistic ideals sneaking into supposedly democratic systems (always in the name of true democracy, of course), how the idea of "political extremes touching each other" is dumb as hell (yes of course, there's only a tiny difference between an anti-autoritharian, pacifist, class-abolishing, inclusive system and a highly militarized, hierarchical, bigoted one), on how the "center" more often than not ends up being complicit with the rise of the right, how state media portrays violence (essentially, all forces opposing their view point are terrorists), invasive foreign policies (so military force or internatioal pressure by powerful nations on others due to political, economical or other interests) and how we should rise up, revolt and start again, learning from humanity's past mistakes (classic Anarchist concepts).
I'm aware, however, of the impracticality of a direct revolution in this society of ours. Anarchy is a far more complex system than what it seems. Humanity (including myself, i'm not that hypocritical) is still far too stupid, selfish and aggressive to succesfully implement a system that only works if we have to think for ourselves while still looking for collective well-being.
Most of the time, either one of the two gets sacrificed (so sacrifice collective well-being for full individualism or sacrifice any individual freedom for the greater good) or we get inbetweens with more emphasis on one side or the other, depending on the ideology of the ruling class.

After years of trying to play every music genre possible, this project eventually stabilized to try all shades and forms of
Hardcore Punk, no matter how extreme or noisy.
Old releases have been privated, due to them being both garbage, some not even fully legal and essentially a smudge on my conscience.
