Sindrome 2000

Flema's song "Sindrome 2000" offers a stark and dystopian critique of modern society, highlighting the dehumanizing effects of technology and consumerism. The lyrics paint a picture of a world where the rules are already set, and everything revolves around plastic and technology. The line "el hombre no es nada, todo es tecnología" (man is nothing, everything is technology) underscores the idea that human value is diminished in a world dominated by technological advancements and materialism. The imagery of "pequeños robots" (small robots) running in circles to earn money to sustain their lives further emphasizes the mechanical and soulless existence that people are forced into.

The song also delves into the societal pressures and restrictions that stifle individuality and freedom. The repeated refrain "no mires no existas, no hables no existas, no escuches no existas, no pienses no existas" (don't look, don't exist; don't speak, don't exist; don't listen, don't exist; don't think, don't exist) serves as a powerful commentary on how society demands conformity and suppresses critical thinking and self-expression. The addition of "no droga no existas, no sexo no existas, no alcohol no existas" (no drugs, no sex, no alcohol, don't exist) suggests that even personal choices and vices are controlled and judged, leaving individuals with little room for personal freedom.

Furthermore, the song criticizes religious institutions and societal norms, stating that the church no longer holds credibility and that people no longer believe in false prophets and messiahs. The mention of suicides and abortions occurring daily, and the youth consuming pornography, highlights the moral decay and mental atrophy that the band perceives in contemporary society. The urgent call to "tenemos que parar" (we have to stop) is a plea for a radical change to break free from this oppressive and dehumanizing cycle.
