1. Disidente is one of the most unlikely success stories of underground mexican rock.
Disidente melt loud and heavy guitars with emotional melodies then Disidente's songs are a mix of punk atitude and sensibility with a sharp sense of rock songwriting.
Fueled by the curiosity of seeing where their ambitions might take them, the band performed a number of live shows in Mexico (2002-2004) before the release of their debut album "...y si tuviera disquera" . The album received critical praise, and got extensive airplay.
Playing alongside a number of great and diverse bands (Cafe tacvba, Molotov, Cuca, Attaque 77, Babasonicos and The Sounds, just to name a few) they showed their ability to excite different crowds from one night to the other. The intention to play "in front of everyone all of the time" proved to be more than talk.

2. Disidente is a hardcore punk band from Barcelona, Spain. They released their first demo on October 2014.

Disidente Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

DISPIERTA SIN AVISAR,
SI ES REAL O ES FICCIÓN
HISTORIAS QUE INVENTAR,
ES UN MONO O ERES TU
TODO SE VE MUY BIEN DESDE AHÍ
NADA SALE MAL
TODO SE VE MUY BIEN DESDE AHÍ
MONITOR, MONITOR

CAMBIANDO SIN TRANSFORMAR
LO QUE EXISTE NO ERES TU
EL CUARTO EMPIEZA A RODAR
ES LA ANTENA O EL CONTROL

MONITOR, MONITOR

ME COMIÓ EL TELEVISOR
OTRA VEZ, OTRA VEZ ME COMIÓ EL TELEVISOR

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Disidente's song "Monitor" speak to the themes of reality, perspective, and individuality. The song starts with the lines "Wake up without warning, whether it's real or fiction. Stories to invent, is it a monkey or is it you?" These lines speak to the idea that reality can often be manipulated and distorted, and it is up to the individual to decide what is real and what is not. This is reinforced in the chorus where it states "Everything looks very good from there, nothing goes wrong, everything looks very good from there, monitor, monitor."

The second verse continues with similar themes, talking about change without transformation and the feeling of being consumed by television or media. The line "the room begins to rotate, is it the antenna or the control?" speaks to the idea that the manipulation of reality may not even be in the hands of the individual, but rather controlled by external forces. The final line "it ate me, the television ate me again" further emphasizes this idea, as if the individual is losing themselves to the distractions and manipulations of media.

Overall, the song highlights the importance of critical thinking and self-awareness in a world where reality can easily be distorted and manipulated. It serves as a warning against blindly accepting what we see and hear, and encourages us to question and investigate the truth for ourselves.
