Danas je tačno 23 godine od Columbine-a. Veoma su obeležili moje odrastanje, i oni i ovaj bend. Dvehiljadite su se direktno naslanjale na ovaj čuveni dogadjaj, ali nažalost u balkanskoj rupčagi usled bombardovanja kod nas se nije primila priča o poduhvatu koji je uzdrmao celu Ameriku i zauvek je promenio (kao i dobar deo sveta). Pored poduhvata Timoti MekVeja i ovaj je dogadjaj ušao u američke istorijske udžbenike (što sam svojim očima video, u poglavlju o široj priči oko pitanja oružja u USA). Sam akt anarho-nihilističkog nasilja u Columbine školi izvršen je na isti dan kad je izašao njihov album simboličnog naziva - Adios. Tad su se kupovali diskovi pa je sve to imalo veliku logiku, veliku poruku, i smisao, jer se nije svodila muzika na klik kursora miša.

KMFDM je moj omiljeni bend, pored Ramštajna, NIN, The Doors i još nekih. To nije slučajno, ali pošto je godišnjica, odlučih da otvorim temu o ovom kultnom underground bendu. Tada su zbog Columbine-a stekli ozloglašenost i mračnu slavu, ali ih je to i ubilo u mejnstrimu, kao i Merilina Mensona i još neke povezane sa muzičkih ukusom gospode u trenchcoat-u. Pa nek ovo bude tema sa njihovim pesmama, tekstovima, poetikom... ako neko nije čuo za ovaj bend preporučio bih da posluša ponešto ako želi. Ko već sluša može da se uključi (ako uopšte ima nekog).

Moja omiljena stvar od njih. Mislim da sam je preslušao deset hiljada puta. I danas kad čujem ritam osetim destruktivnu moć kako me šiba iznutra i ogromnu silu haotične volje.

Raise your head
From the ashes, from the fire

Now is the time
Get on the right side

You'll be godlike
You'll be godlike
You'll be godlike

 
Kakav video!

Komentar sa neta o pesmi:

"I think what attracted the shooters to this song was the meaning that I always got from it. It's a song about being a lone wolf, a mechanism for change in the world. A heroic individual if you will, in the Romantic sense. An individual who is at odds with the society around him, and his greatest struggle is to transcend those boundaries which are made by the moral code. Once these are transcended, the hero also transcends himself and thus is in a way divine. Change throughout history has not come through the consensus of the crowd, but from timeless individuals who sacrifice their personal comfort for a higher calling. Do not confuse higher calling with some dogmatized Christian concept. It doesn't have to be religious at all, but such a thing is very spiritual."

 

Naravno, jako volim industrial, s tim što mi je KMFDM bio i ostao jedan od omiljenih bendova još od srednje kad sam ih patološki slušao. Imali su izlet u komercijalu sa Juke Joint Jezebel, ali ja baš volim što su i dalje na tragu undergrounda, jako mi se to svidja.

Nazad na temu, jedna od mojih omiljenih... malo kontraverzno ali (po meni) idealna za žestoko drogiranje:

 
Evo novih stvari od KMFDM, zvuče jako kao i uvek. Ova traka je baš vrhunska, i tekst i sve. Mislim da to što su u ostali u undergroundu njihovim projektima daje snagu i svežinu.

...enter the arena, laughing all the way through the night, I am... hyena

 
When you peel back my eyes
I see the pain and feel alive
My hatred heaps upon this fire
That burns inside and you blow higher
But I don't need you anymore
You cannot hurt me anymore

Keep it away from the fire
Unless you want it to burn
It burns, wildfire
Give it to me
Wildfire
Don't take it from me
Wildfire
Give it

 
Evo još kidačina od kmfdm, sa slavnog albuma Nihil:

My youth is wasted
I'm evasive and vague
I'm a headless beast
I'm a subtle plague
I'm a cheatin' liar
I am naked terror
I hurt, I wound
I'm a fatal error

[Chorus]
I don't make sense
I got my pride
Don't need no meaning
I feel no shame
I will not believe
I got no choice
I'm out of control
And I love it

 
Between the liquor, the bend and the noise in my head.
Between your mind and my crime
And me int the grime.
Between the gun, the lead and the lies that I said.
Through your sweet breath,
Come the down of my death.
