What do you think of this?
There is a person who still enters my first blog through the post in which I compared Matter to the greatest Slovenian poet. It has five likes. I’ve read an article since in which another Slovenian poet is chosen as a comparison. We need to have this straight, who said what when. Great things in store and all that.
Without giving away all the lyrics – let’s just say that there are Armani saddles and Lipizzaner horses as well as Kurosawa, my antitheses (which they fuck), and a brand new word Kamnikfolija in the context “Inside me is Kamnikfolija”. There once used to be a Slovenian song “Inside me is California”, but not only: the word further joins their home-town Kamnik in Slovenia, melancholia, and folija=foil coupled with the junkie in another line (“I’m obsessed with meaning like a junkie, I’m a lie searching for the truth“). I hear Kamnikfolija is the war-cry that brings them back for the encore in the live setting.
Enough explanation. This video is catchy for visual reasons too. Have a look and tell me what you think.
It was shot in a disused chemical factory near their hometown.
In the beginning they return because he left his cap behind.
There is a line “your asshole will freeze, your mommy said to me”.
And if you like it, have a look at Meduze too. There are jellyfish.
I’ve already told them that Toscana would make an excellent next hit title.

These tracks are now amongst my favourite Slovenian rap tracks…certainly in the top 50.
