To this day, they continue to tour rapidly all over the world, even with Rat splitting his time between them and Discharge. They shared a headlining spot with such acts as Broken Bones, The Adicts, Vice Squad and GBH at the ill-fated British Invasion 2k6 concert festival in San Bernardino, California which ended in mass-rioting and alleged police brutality.
They are currently writing new material for a new album to be released in the near future.
What the Hell Do You Know
The Varukers Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
And you say we don't go with dinner
And you say we can't keep a beat
And you say you can't tap your feet
Oh yea what the hell do you know
Oh yea at least at least at least we're trying
You're always there trying to put me down
You're always there trying to push me around
We'll soon be back to get you
The Varukers's song What the Hell Do You Know is about the band's frustration towards those who are quick to criticize their music without giving them a chance. The lyrics address these critics by sarcastically acknowledging their negative comments but ultimately standing up for themselves and reminding them that they are at least trying.
The line "So you say we sound like a vacuum cleaner" could be interpreted as a criticism of the band's perceived lack of musical talent, but instead of wallowing in self-doubt, they use this as motivation to prove their critics wrong. The line "We'll soon be back to get you" is a warning to their critics that they will continue to make music and improve, despite the negative comments.
Overall, the song encourages listeners to not let the negative opinions of others discourage them from pursuing their passions and to continue trying even in the face of criticism.
