Die Form's songs are erotic and death-obsessed. They have been able to impose years after years a music and an image of the most completed, in the practice of the "multimedia intervention" (music, performance, photography and cinema/video).
Since 1978, besides multiple participations in international projects, about thirty albums, many video clips & films and two art books allow to appreciate their particular universe : industrial and organic electronic, tortured neo-classic and experimental constructions to more accessible compositions (based on rhythms, cuts, sampling, treated voices and sequences). Always motivated by passions, Philippe F. and Eliane P. exhibit the ultimate beauty of love, at the boundary of the interdicts.
"Out-standard constructions where is added a mechanical dimension to the sensuality of the female voices and melodies."
The Supreme Vice
Die Form Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Under the blister of stones, reluctantly, the wave vibrates : walled suns.
The bitter mescal springs like a charm from your distended belly... black hole.
Thirsty earth for amber and glair, draft, chasms of glass, confined stars :
Hidden work, gnawed bone.
Nettle, defiled, does not live.
Taken in reverse by sight, stranded, riddled with anguish, he opens her unavowed flesh.
The impaled girl 's sighs and worse, kinked and possessed :
Stiffened, raped, gives up to dementia.
Sleepy lake, noiselessly passing away, fruitless belly.
Terre assoiffée de sang et de glaires, étoiles cachées, gouffres de fer...
La déchirée crie aux pierres sa douleur d 'ange écorché.
Criblé d 'angoisses, j 'ouvre ses chairs.
Soupirs et pire de l 'empalée, vrillée et possédée :
Violée raidie s'ouvre à la folie.
The lyrics of Die Form's song "The Supreme Vice" depict a scene of intense pain and suffering, both physical and emotional. The opening lines refer to a soul that has been stripped of its adornments, left raw and exposed by the harsh surroundings of burnt shores and stone blisters. The imagery of "walled suns" suggests a sense of entrapment or isolation, perhaps reflective of the emotional state of the singer.
The following lines describe the bitter taste of mescal, a cactus-based alcoholic drink, rising up from the belly like a charm. The mention of a "black hole" adds a sense of foreboding or doom. The third verse speaks of an earth that is parched and thirsting for precious substances like amber and glass, while stars remain hidden in deep chasms of iron. The mention of "hidden work" and "gnawed bone" suggests a sense of futility or despair.
The final lines suggest a scene of sexual violence and mental breakdown, with an "impaled girl" giving in to the "folie" or madness. The overall mood of the song is one of darkness and despair, with a hint of surrealism that intensifies the sense of unease.

I am a Canadian citizen but lived in Jamaica for a few years.
Because of that I got to see alot of Jamaica that other "tourists" don't.
I saw the BEAUTIFUL country most "tourists" don't. And I saw ALOT of CORRUPTION most "tourists " don't.
This man right here is Kingstons "Peter Pan".
He protected the vulnerable, and supplied help to hundreds if not thousands of children throughout the years to obtain their educations.. Many family dont always have the money to send ALL their children to school consistently.
This man provided these children a brighter tomorrow.
Rumor has it this man is also responsible for some not so nice things to.
At the end of the day,
This community (and many others) needs structure.
Unfortunately because of so much CORRUPTION within the Government and the Police
Christopher Dudus was the structure of AUTHORITY that communities need.
The government got caught with their tale between their legs and basically asked for World War THREE.
That's EXACTLY what they got.
Citizens were SLAUGHTERED. Straight up MURDERED.
I'm sorry to say but until Jamaica is NOT run by a CLOWN, this is how it's always gonna be.
The government needs to be SUPER ASHAMED of themselves.
Not to mention the fact his Daddy was killed in a fire at the jail he was in while awaiting extradition to the United States.
How coincidental is that really?
From what I understand the man was on route to the American Embassy in Kingston to turn himself in DIRECTLY to AMERICAN authorities . In fear he'll end up like his daddy.
Speaking of his daddy....
He goes by Jim Brown. And let's just say that Christopher "coke" Dudus had to have learnt that behavior from somewhere and someone. Or more
This man's siblings are NO DIFFERENT than him and their Daddy.
You definitely can't judge a book by its cover because you never ACTUALLY know what might or might not happen. Until its to late maybe even

As an American citizen I'll never stop saying that it is my belief that the war on drugs has been the biggest scam ever perpetrated on all of us.
Ryan
I'm just glad drugs won the war on drugs.
PK Flex
I wouldn't describe it as a scam, more so a gross misunderstanding of basic economics. where there is demand, there will be supply.
the solution is to nationalize the drug market and starve the gangs of income
Ryan
@Stevie J Nothing better than lighting up a J after work. It's like a shower for the mind.

@PK Flex they'll find something else with lucrative profits. legal or not. probably not. that's always been the way. not saying I totally disagree with the solution though.
