Youth vs. The Old Guard: A Call for Change in 'Criaturas al poder'

Eskorbuto's song 'Criaturas al poder' is a powerful critique of the generational divide in power and influence. The lyrics lament the dominance of the older generation in positions of authority and wealth, questioning the absence of youth in these roles. The repeated phrase 'Viejos, siempre viejos' (Old, always old) underscores the frustration with the status quo, where the young are metaphorically placed 'in the coffin,' suggesting that their potential and voices are being stifled by the older generation's grip on power.

The song also touches on the cyclical nature of old mistakes and conflicts, with references to 'viejos intereses, viejos errores' (old interests, old mistakes) and 'vieja es la guerra' (war is old). This highlights the artist's view that the persistence of the same old leaders perpetuates outdated and harmful ideologies. By naming specific figures like Kruchef, Reagan, and the Pope, Eskorbuto emphasizes that this issue spans across different spheres of influence, from politics to religion.

The chorus, 'Criaturas al poder' (Creatures to power), serves as a rallying cry for a new generation to take the reins. The term 'criaturas' (creatures) can be seen as a metaphor for the youth, who are often viewed as inexperienced or naive but are full of potential and new ideas. The song ends on a note of defiance and hope, urging the youth to seize power and bring about change. Eskorbuto, known for their punk rock style, uses this song to channel the rebellious spirit of the genre, advocating for a societal shift that embraces the energy and innovation of the younger generation.
