Given that, in France, metal music is not as popular as in other countries, Dagoba often plays concerts and gigs outside France, such as in Germany and the Scandinavian countries, with support slots with such big metal names as Machine Head, In Flames and Sepultura.
Franky Costanza (former Imperial drummer) and Izakar also play in a side-project named Blazing War Machine.

Dagoba Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Violence is a power you' ve denied so much
We're all the same...
I do know why drugs make people rush
The meaning of life discovered in a secondary state
The vicious, boiling, shouting crowd
We're coming from underground
Living down, we're the proud people apart... but
Mind, your own against, once again my own
Mind, your own against, once again my own
I do know why war makes people rush
Destruction is a power we release so much!
We're all the same we're living down
The vicious, boiling, shouting crowd
We're coming from underground
Living down, we're the proud people apart... but
Mind, your own against, once again my own
Mind, your own against, once again my own
Rush!
The lyrics of Dagoba's song "Rush" discuss the phenomenon of people being drawn to things that are intense and exhilarating, even if those things might be harmful or dangerous. The song begins with the lines, "I don't know why blood makes people rush/Violence is a power you've denied so much." Here, the band is acknowledging that people are often attracted to violence and aggression, even if they try to distance themselves from it. The second verse delves into the allure of drugs, noting that people often find a sense of meaning or purpose in these substances.
The third verse looks at the role of war in society, suggesting that we may be drawn to destruction and chaos as a way of releasing pent-up aggression or frustration. Through these verses, Dagoba is exploring the darker side of human nature and the ways in which we can be drawn to things that are harmful or destructive, even if we try to resist them. However, the chorus offers a message of unity, stating that "we're all the same" and highlighting the ways in which we are all connected, regardless of our individual experiences or actions.
Overall, the lyrics of "Rush" invite listeners to reflect on the complex motivations behind our actions and the ways in which we can work to overcome the negative tendencies that can pull us toward violence and chaos.
