1) Dead Fish is a Brazilian hardcore punk band from Vitória, Espírito Santo, Brazil. Formed in 1991, they developed their music with intense vocal, initially sung in English then switched to Portuguese, frantic guitar fretwork, bulldozer-like drumming style and bass picking. The lyrics usually range from political and social criticism to daily personal problems, among others.
Their gigs are known for the energetic performances, frantic mosh-pit and stage dives. Also, there's a well-know catch phrase shout by the crowd at sometime in the show: "Ei, Dead Fish, vai tomar no cu!" which means "Hey, Dead Fish, go fuck your ass off!"
In 2004 they almost broke up but signed up with major label Deckdisc, releasing their first mainstream album, Zero e Um.
Band's current lineup is: Rodrigo (vocals), Philipe - who has left Reffer, Alyand (bass) and Marcos (drums) making Dead Fish's "kitchen".

Dead Fish Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Por muito tempo acreditar e ser assim
Descomunizar o senso comum e se tornar especial
Olhar nos meus olhos e se perceber campeão
Em nome do privado, estatizarei
O estado agora é o Eu e isso inclui você
É tudo muito simples seja racional
Siga essa linha traçada no chão e veja luz do meu farol
A velha nova alternativa não é circular
Dois mais dois são quatro
A nova moral
A flecha no seu alvo
A solução final
Linear
Cante a música
Reto é andar

The lyrics of Linear by Dead Fish convey a message of a false and dangerous ideology that is being spread by the singer of the song. The chorus, "Linear, sing the song, straight is to walk, linear," emphasizes the singer's message of simplicity and rationality being the key to salvation. The first verse, "Give me your hand, I can save you, believe for a long time and be like this, de-communize the common sense and become special, look into my eyes and realize yourself as a champion," is an attempt to lure the listener into trusting and following the singer's ideology. The singer promises to save the listener and make them feel special if they follow their linear thinking.
The second verse, "In the name of privacy, I will nationalize, the state is now me and that includes you," reveals the singer's authoritarian and narcissistic tendencies. They present themselves as the ultimate authority and claim the right to control everything, including the listener. The song continues to push the idea of a new moral code that is simple and easy to understand, but in reality, it is misguided and potentially dangerous.
Overall, the lyrics of Linear are a warning against blindly following charismatic leaders who present themselves as saviors and try to impose their ideas on others. The singer's ideology is presented as a trap that promises salvation but ultimately leads to authoritarianism and conformity.
