Baila Pogo Sobre Un Nazi

Hachazo's song 'Baila Pogo Sobre Un Nazi' is a powerful and provocative anthem that uses the metaphor of dance to convey a strong anti-fascist message. The song's title, which translates to 'Dance Pogo on a Nazi,' immediately sets the tone for its rebellious and confrontational nature. The lyrics describe a new dance craze, humorously attributed to the popular Spanish singer Georgie Dann, known for his catchy summer hits. However, the dance in question is not a lighthearted summer tune but a call to action against fascism and Nazism.

The repeated chorus, 'Baila pogo sobre un nazi,' emphasizes the act of resistance through the aggressive and chaotic dance style known as pogo, commonly associated with punk rock culture. Pogo dancing involves jumping up and down in a mosh pit, often colliding with others, symbolizing the physical and direct confrontation with oppressive ideologies. The song suggests that this dance should be performed with 'mala ostia' (bad temper) and 'tus botas de montar' (your riding boots), further highlighting the aggressive stance against Nazis.

The lyrics also recommend performing this dance at social gatherings, whether on the coast or in the mountains, indicating that the fight against fascism should be widespread and pervasive. The final verses escalate the message with a direct call to 'mata nazis' (kill Nazis), leaving no room for ambiguity about the band's stance. Hachazo's use of humor, irony, and punk rock aggression creates a compelling and memorable protest song that encourages listeners to stand up against hate and oppression in all its forms.
