Dietrich is an Argentine musical-visual project founded in early 2007 by Rodrigo Cursach and Hernán Corera. During a trip to Brazil's coast in January 2007, the idea of creating a unique project in Argentina's music scene emerged, blending visual and musical elements. This concept aimed to be more impactful and important than its performers, encapsulating graphic, musical, and artistic elements. This is when Dietrich was born.
Back in Buenos Aires, inspired by North American beat literature and authors like Kerouac and Burroughs, they created their alter egos. With several compositions finished by mid-2007, they recorded “No Me Vas A Olvidar”, “Primeras Fotografías A Color”, and “Helsinki”.
Their first live show, "70 Seconds Before the Knockout", was a success. In 2009, Miguel Mactas (MACOI) joined Dietrich, leading to a reorganization of the band's structure. The current lineup includes Korok on drums, Macoi on guitars, and Hakinen and Frisco on bass, guitars, keyboards, and music production. In 2009, they performed seven times and planned to release their first album, “Interlaken”. The visual concept of Dietrich was created by Rodrigo Cursach and Hernán Corera, Director & Photographer.

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
The afterlife refers to the idea of an existence beyond death, where one's soul or essence continues to exist in some form. The concept is often associated with a particular religion or belief system, and different cultures have their own beliefs about what happens after death. In the context of D.I.E.T.R.I.C.H.'s song, the afterlife may represent a metaphorical or existential state of being. It could be interpreted as a moment of reflection or realization, where the singer comes to terms with the consequences of their actions.
The line "Welcome to the afterlife" could also be seen as a commentary on the fragility of life and the inevitability of death. The singer may be acknowledging that death is a natural part of the human experience, and that all of us will eventually have to face our own mortality. Overall, the lyrics suggest a sense of acceptance and resignation, as the singer confronts the reality of their situation.

Where nothing is as it seems
The experience is unlike anything you have encountered before and cannot be easily grasped or understood.
You can't tell your possessions from your dreams
The boundaries between what you have and what you desire have blurred or become indistinguishable, leaving you uncertain of what is truly important or valuable.
And you're floating down the stream
You are carried along by the current of this new reality, unable to easily control or navigate your surroundings.
Everything has lost its meaning
The value or significance of things you once knew or cared about has been altered or diminished beyond recognition.
But you're not alone
Despite the disorienting nature of the afterlife, there are others who share this experience with you and can provide support and guidance.
You've been shown the ropes
Some of those who have been here longer have shared their knowledge and understanding of this new reality with you, in order to help you adapt and survive.
And you're learning the rules
You are slowly acquiring knowledge of the new norms and expectations that govern behavior in this afterlife, in order to better navigate and interact with others.
So just close your eyes and let the current take control
Surrender yourself to this new reality and allow yourself to be carried along by the current or flow of events, without trying to resist or impose your will upon them.
Let it capture your soul
Allow yourself to become fully immersed in this afterlife experience, to the point where it affects your very being and essence.
Just open up your heart and let your spirit unfold
Allow your deepest emotions and innermost self to manifest, unencumbered by the constraints of your previous physical existence.
Welcome to the afterlife
You have once again arrived in this new realm of existence, with all its strange and wondrous possibilities.
