D.T.A.L was formed spring… Read Full Bio ↴D.T.A.L abbreviates Dr Tjock & Atomligan.
D.T.A.L was formed spring -83 because we didn’t thought there were any others that played as we wanted it to sound plus that there wasn’t much more to do in a small town like Landskrona. The first setting was: Fredde – vocals, Måe – guitar, Jerry – bass and Nelle – drums, it last to the first EP “Time to die”. After that people have come and go, some have been in for several sets on different instruments (this is to complicated, a book could be written on the subject). The music changed a bit through the years due to member changes and influences, then when the promised LP on C.B.R, it was recorded as late as feb -90, for some unaccountable reason never was released we simple got tired and splitted the band.

I can do all these drugs (But they won't work against you)
No, feeling cutthroat
Make me wanna choke
Don't know where to go
Hit the bottle drink again so I don't think about you
I can do all these drugs (But they won't work against you)
No, feeling cutthroat
Don't know where to go
You think your better than me
I think we're very petty
Go roll one up then forget all the things you tell me
Life is a joke it fucks around and makes you think your crazy
I cannot stand all these voices but they're stronger than me
The sky turns grey my eyes are bright
Red eyes glowing, sleepless nights
I can't tell if your alright, just wanna go home tonight
Close off the tear in my brain
Exhausted from these brain waves
Hit the bottle drink again so I don't think about you
I can do all these drugs (But they won't work against you)
No, feeling cutthroat
Make me wanna choke
Don't know where to go
Hit the bottle drink again so I don't think about you
I can do all these drugs (But they won't work against you)
No, feeling cutthroat
Make me wanna choke
Don't know where to go
The lyrics to D.T.A.L.'s song Fear seem to be a commentary on society's fear of the unknown and the impact it has on our actions and relationships. The first verse describes a charming and intimidating person, possibly a leader, who is able to manipulate and control others. However, the singer is not intimidated and is willing to take a stand against this person's power. This can be interpreted as a metaphor for standing up against those who seek to control and manipulate us, regardless of their perceived power or status.
The chorus poses the question of who is truly afraid, and why? The line "before we knew the Fear" suggests that fear is something that is learned, rather than inherent. The second verse then shifts to a more optimistic tone, celebrating the end of innocence and the birth of new generations. It's possible that the "fear" being referred to here is a fear of change, of growing up, or of facing the reality of the world.
The bridge then repeats the singer's defiance, stating that they will not be afraid of those who have been here before, and those who perpetuate the cycle of fear. Ultimately, the message of the song seems to be one of empowerment and overcoming the fear that holds us back.
Line by Line Meaning
He's charming everyone
He is easily winning the favor and approval of everyone around him
Shining like a sun
He is radiating a strong, bright presence that captures attention and admiration
The darkest moving star of all
Despite being a standout and a leader, he still carries a heaviness or darkness within him that others may not see
The Tallest Man On Earth
He is elevated in status and influence like a giant among men
Just asked me to go forth
He has challenged or encouraged me to step into a new experience or opportunity
And if you think I'll cringe, you're wrong
Contrary to expectations, I will not hesitate or show fear in the face of this challenge
And who is so afraid
What kind of person would be filled with such intense fear
Of getting caught or laid
Of being exposed for some wrongdoing or of having a sexual encounter
By those who have been here
By people who have been in this situation before
Before we knew the Fear?
Before we fully understood the consequences and risks involved
The greatest day has come
A momentous occasion has finally arrived
Our innocence is gone
We have lost our naivety and purity in some significant way
The children we have borne
The things we have created or produced now belong to someone else
Are yours
They are now in your possession and under your control
I'm waiting for your call
I am ready and willing to receive your communication
And standing here unharmed
I am not affected or damaged by any negative consequences or reactions
And I won't be afraid
I will not let fear hold me back or control my actions
Of getting caught or laid
Of being exposed or having a sexual encounter
By those who have been here
By people who are familiar with this situation
Before we knew the Fear
Before we fully grasped the magnitude and implications of our actions
So who is so afraid
Who could possibly be filled with such intense fear
Of getting caught or laid
Of being exposed or having a sexual encounter
By those who have been here
By people who are familiar with this situation
Before we knew what Fear was?
Before we fully understood the power and impact of fear in our lives
