In 1991 the band was completed by the guitarist Lars Lundevall. The new line-up recorded these albums:
Varme mennesker (Warm People) (1991), Neste sommer (Next summer) (1993), Mere (More) (1994), Sent og tidlig (Late and early) (1995), Stakkars (Miserable) (1997), Kast alle papirene (Throw away all the paper) (1999) and Midt i begynnelsen (In the middle of the beginning) (2002). Their debut LP "Suser avgårde" (1986), is regarded as one of their most popular records. The lyrics are very popular because they are very naïve & philosophic. They released their final record in 2002; "Midt i begynnelsen". In 2005, they released a compilation which is named "Festen er ikke over... det er kake igjen." ("The party ain't over... There's more cake left"). New album out now: "Trist å være glad" 2011.
Utkaster
deLillos Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Han er utkaster
Men er du snill så er'n gem
Han er utkaster
Han kaster dem ut
Han kaster dem ut
Hei på deg utkaster jeg stoler på deg
Jeg stoler på deg du kaster dem ut
Du kaster dem ut
Jorden snurrer rundt og rundt
Men han er utkaster
Bomber faller priser stiger
Men han er utkaster
Han kaster dem ut
Han kaster dem ut
Hei på deg utkaster jeg stoler på deg
Kommer det en iraner med andre vaner
Jeg stoler på deg du kaster dem ut
Du kaster dem ut
Hei på deg utkaster jeg stoler på deg
Kommer det en russer eller andre tusser
Kommer det en iraner med andre vaner
Kommer det en asylsøker med forbudte bøker
Kommer det en pakistaner med norske vaner
Kommer det en danske med slåsshanske
Jeg stoler på deg du kaster dem ut
The song Utkaster by deLillos features a character who is an "utkaster," or bouncer, at a club or venue. The lyrics describe him as "dum," or stupid, and "tykk," or fat, but also as someone who can be trusted to remove anyone deemed undesirable from the establishment. The repeated phrase "Han kaster dem ut" emphasizes his role as a thrower-outer.
Despite the chaotic events happening in the world around him, such as bombs falling and prices rising, the utkaster remains in his position, focused on his job of ejecting unwanted individuals. The lyrics then list off various ethnicities and behaviors that might cause someone to be removed, including "en iraner med andre vaner," or an Iranian with different customs, and "en asylsøker med forbudte bøker," or an asylum seeker with forbidden books.
Overall, the song seems to be making a commentary on the idea of exclusion and discrimination, as well as the societal pressures to fit in and behave in certain ways. The utkaster character serves as a symbol for those who uphold these exclusionary norms, but the lyrics also suggest that his actions are sometimes necessary for maintaining order and safety in a particular environment.
