Since coming together as a band, they cut their teeth playing numerous California dates with groups like Entrance Band, Tyde, Tijuana Panthers, and the Growlers, and have garnered the approval of original UK Psych founding-father Patrick Campbell-Lyons (Nirvana). In the Los Angeles musical community, they gained a reputation as a laid-back, grooving band with strong ties to the authentically LA-centric sounds of bands like the Byrds, Love, and early Captain Beefheart.
The group released their third album, Calico Review, on September 9, 2016. On November 3, 2017, the band released the EP Covers #1. The EP consists of four covers of songs by George Harrison, Television, Kathy Heideman, and Further. In October 2019, the band released the album LAHS.
De Vida Voz
Allah-Las Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I know you've been misbehaving
All the people you've abandoned
Voices carry through the canyon
I know all the games you're playing
I know where your games were made in
All the herds you had your hand in
Voices carry through the canyon
Voices carry through the canyon
Voices carry through the canyon
Voices carry through the canyon
The lyrics to Allah-Las's song De Vida Voz seem to be addressing someone who has been engaging in misbehavior, abandoning people and playing games. The singer seems to be aware of all of this and is calling out the individual for it. The repetition of the line "voices carry through the canyon" seems to suggest that there are consequences to one's actions, even if they may seem hidden or distant. The canyon could symbolize a place where one's voice can echo and reverberate, emphasizing that one's actions have a lasting impact.
By acknowledging the things that the individual has done, the singer is essentially saying that their voice has carried through the canyon and that their actions have not gone unnoticed. The tone of the song is somewhat ominous, suggesting that the individual may face repercussions for their behavior. The use of the word "misbehaving" suggests that they have been doing something wrong intentionally, rather than inadvertently.
Overall, the lyrics to De Vida Voz by Allah-Las seem to be about accountability and the consequences of our actions. The repetition of the phrase "voices carry through the canyon" emphasizes that our actions have an impact, even if we might not see it immediately.
