With this formation, they recorded a very political 6-track EP in the local music school of Posada de Llanera, called "Agujero Social". They took to the road and supported known classics as Barón Rojo, Brecha, Transfer, Desorden, Aprieta'l kulo, etc. With the addition of Nano (Drums) and Dani (Bagpipe and Sound Technician), they recorded their second 6-track EP, "Gritando en Silencio" in La Factoria studios in Aviles. This work gave them recognition around the Asturias punk scene and beyond.
Contra el dolor
Desakato Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Contra un muro de hormigón
De aguantar las hostias
Que le daba ese cabrón.
Y escupiendo al frío
Se consigue mas calor
Pero en su nevera
Me voy preguntando
En que basas tu intención
De tirarla al suelo
De intentar ahogar su voz.
Pero tiene intacta
Su libertad de expresión
Y es que las patadas
No duelen a la razón...
Estribillo:
Y contra el dolor
Una constante pelea.
Y en su corazón
Se le pudre la tristeza.
No encuentra razón
Ni sentido a la violencia.
Y hoy pasa a la acción
Para romper sus cadenas.
Me voy preguntando
De que vale esta canción,
Si sigue el maltrato,
Si no ponen solución...
Y escupiendo al frío!
Se consigue mas calor
Pero en su nevera
Ya no hay sitio para dos....
[Estribillo]
The lyrics of Desakato's song Contra el dolor, are about an individual who is broken and battered, against a wall made of concrete, taking a barrage of punches from someone who seems to be a partner or an abusive lover. The individual, however, continues to fight, spitting at the cold, to find warmth and heat from within. Yet, the space in their heart that needs to be filled, cannot be taken up by another person. Lines such as "Me voy preguntando en que basas tu intención / De tirarla al suelo / De intentar ahogar su voz" suggest that the victim wonders why their abuser is trying to put them down and silence their voice, despite their freedom of expression. The chorus then goes on to talk about the constant struggle against pain and the rotting sadness in their heart as a result of the violence. The victim also questions the validity of the song, asking what good it is if abuse and violence continue to go unchecked, and they end by repeating the same lines as before on needing to find warmth within themselves.
