Stoner Train's music is a mix of the bearish vocal which makes children cry, the tough harp reminding a gritting of iron in a bloody fight, the shaman percussion which rhythm forces you to up your ass, and the charming guitar making you to drink a couple of bottles of beer and to start on a neverending satanic dance!
Stoner Train originally comes from Moscow, Russia. Founded in 2011 the band started playing Stoner/Blues/Southern and released 2 LP albums that caught the attention of the underground scene in different countries.
In 2013 Serj Gdanian moved to Berlin and met Ivan Mostacci (Italy), with whom the band recorded the third LP album “III”. At the moment the band is playing around Europe and preparing new material for their next studio album.

Stoner Train Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Get away from me.
What you say, oh what you say, what you say,
I'd never like to see.
Oh no, I know.
I know, what'd you got here.
I know...
I know, oh no
See your eyes, I see your eyes, see your eyes,
Looking down at me.
Heavy chains, oh heavy chains, heavy chains,
I'd like to set me free.
Oh no, I know.
I know, what'd you got here.
I know...
I know, oh no
Medusa
The lyrics of Stoner Train's song Medusa depict a person who wants to be free from someone who is weighing them down. The person is telling them to get away and stay away from them because they do not want to hear what they have to say. The heavy chains that the person perceives around them signify that this person is a burden to them and they want to break free from them.
The chorus of the song reiterates that the person saying this knows what this other person has, but they want them to stay away. The reference to Medusa in the title of the song connotes the mythological character that could turn people to stone with just one look. Comparing this person to Medusa may suggest that this person is toxic and dangerous, and they want to escape their grasp before they are paralyzed by their toxicity.
