2. Mindy Stock (born Feb. 11, 1990) began playing music at a very young age, as her mother, a piano teacher, encouraged her to. She experimented with piano, trumpet, and drums, but did not find her instrumental niche until she picked up a guitar at 16. She record her first album, “Quick, before the rain gets in,” with help from a friend and his basement, under the name the Fragile Army. However, the Polyphonic Spree released their new album under the same title, and she new it was time to find a more suitable name.
Mindy moved into a mangy apartment full of unruly boys when she was just 17, and began to take her music more seriously. “Jelen a Zool,” was recorded in a 2 month period using extremely lo-fi recording equipment, a busted mic, and an allegedly stolen computor. The album has been described as melancholy girl-folk with casio-tone beats, and was only distributed to a local record shop and sold at the few shows that were played that year.
Jelen’s latest album, “Velvet Face,” is to be released in 2009 and has a more exotic, mature feel to it than its predecessor.

Jelen Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
mraky místo ptáků krouží nad Závistí,
kdyby jsi se někdy ke mně chtěla vrátit,
nesměla bys, lásko, moje srdce ztratit.
Zabil jsem v lese jelena,
bez nenávisti, bez jména,
když přišel dolů k řece pít,
Voda teče k moři, po kamenech skáče,
jednou hráze boří, jindy tiše pláče,
někdy mám ten pocit, i když roky plynou,
že vidím tvůj odraz, dole pod hladinou.
Zabil jsem v lese jelena,
bez nenávisti, bez jména,
když přišel dolů k řece pít,
krev teče do vody, v srdci klid.
Na jaře se vrací listí od podzima,
čas se někam ztrácí, brzo bude zima,
svět přikryje ticho, tečka za příběhem,
kdo pozná, čí kosti zapadaly sněhem.
Zabil jsem v lese jelena,
bez nenávisti, bez jména,
když přišel dolů k řece pít,
krev teče do vody, v srdci klid.
Zabil jsem v lese jelena,
bez nenávisti, bez jména,
když přišel dolů k řece pít,
krev teče do vody, v srdci klid.
The song "Jelen" by Jelen is a melancholic reflection on the fleeting nature of time and the inevitable end of all things. The lyrics speak of the changing of seasons, with leaves returning in the spring and clouds replacing birds in the sky. The singer ponders on lost love, expressing regret that their beloved would not be able to return to them without losing their heart.
The chorus speaks of a deer that the singer has killed without anger or hatred, when it came down to the river to drink. The flow of blood into the water brings tranquility to the singer's heart. The metaphorical significance of this is unclear, but it could be interpreted as an acceptance of the cycle of life and death, or perhaps a metaphor for sacrificing something beloved in order to find peace.
The final verse brings the song full circle, again speaking of how the seasons change and time marches on. The world is covered in silence, putting an end to the story. The final lines contemplate whose bones were buried under the snow. This could be interpreted as a metaphor for the futility of trying to hold on to the past or the inevitability of death.
Overall, "Jelen" is a poetic and thought-provoking song that leaves a lot of room for interpretation.

That I see your reflection, down below the surface.

Na prag samo mi hladan vetar dolazi
Da šapne mi da je ljubav nestala
Kažu ljudi on me više ne voli
Da neće mi doći više nikada
Nikada, nikada
Ne lažite me ljudi, sitni, bezdušni
K'o nož, svaka me reč u srce pogodi
Ja znam da je u snegu moj jelen ranjeni
I noćas nek' ne veju snegovi
Ne lažite me ljudi, sitni, bezdušni
K'o nož, svaka me reč u srce pogodi
Ja znam da je u snegu moj jelen ranjeni
I noćas nek' ne veju snegovi
Js sanjam kako ide preko snegova
Da me čuva, da me odbrani od vukova
Kako žuri samo da me zagrli
Da ne budem sama više nikada
Nikada, nikada
Ne lažite me ljudi, sitni, bezdušni
K'o nož, svaka me reč u srce pogodi
Ja znam da je u snegu moj jelen ranjeni
I noćas nek' ne veju snegovi
Ne lažite me ljudi, sitni, bezdušni
K'o nož, svaka me reč u srce pogodi
Ja znam da je u snegu moj jelen ranjeni
I noćas nek' ne veju snegovi
I noćas nek' ne veju snegovi
