Sonidos De Guerra

Eskorbuto's song 'Sonidos De Guerra' is a stark and unflinching commentary on the futility and devastation of war. The lyrics open with a critique of the empty promises of disarmament, highlighting the hypocrisy of political leaders who talk about peace but continue to prepare for conflict. This sets the stage for a grim narrative that unfolds throughout the song, painting a vivid picture of a world on the brink of destruction.

The imagery of missiles and nuclear bombs serves as a powerful metaphor for the catastrophic potential of human conflict. The line 'El mundo se va a hacer pedazos' (The world is going to be torn to pieces) encapsulates the sense of impending doom. The song's portrayal of a planet turned into a 'gigantesco ataúd' (gigantic coffin) with 'cuerpos mutilados' (mutilated bodies) underscores the irreversible damage that war inflicts on both the environment and humanity.

Eskorbuto's raw and visceral language drives home the message that the proliferation of weapons will inevitably lead to our downfall. The repetition of 'Armas y más armas' (Weapons and more weapons) emphasizes the relentless cycle of violence and the inevitability of a tragic end. The graphic depiction of death and decay, such as 'Tu cabeza encharcada en un charco de podrida sangre' (Your head soaked in a pool of rotten blood), serves as a chilling reminder of the physical and moral consequences of war. Through 'Sonidos De Guerra,' Eskorbuto delivers a powerful anti-war anthem that resonates with urgency and despair.
