The Rebellious Anthem of Rock & Roll: Gaseosa La Clashera
La Polla Records' song "Gaseosa La Clashera" is a raw and unfiltered anthem that captures the essence of rebellion and defiance through the lens of rock & roll. The lyrics paint a vivid picture of the struggles faced by the working class, the unemployed, and those marginalized by society. The repeated references to rock & roll as the blood of the worker and the music of the condemned highlight its role as a voice for the voiceless, a medium through which the oppressed can express their anger and frustration.
The song's aggressive tone and imagery, such as "rock disparo rock metralla" (rock shot rock shrapnel) and "rock navaja rock de cuero" (rock knife rock of leather), emphasize the dangerous and confrontational nature of this genre. Rock & roll is depicted as a weapon against the establishment, a form of resistance that refuses to conform to societal norms or religious beliefs. The line "rock & roll no cree en dios" (rock & roll doesn't believe in God) further underscores this rejection of traditional authority and the embrace of a more anarchistic worldview.
Moreover, "Gaseosa La Clashera" serves as a declaration of survival and resilience. The repeated phrases "rock & roll sobrevivir" (rock & roll survive) and "rock & roll sin porvenir" (rock & roll without a future) reflect the harsh realities faced by those living on the fringes of society. Despite the bleak outlook, the song's defiant spirit shines through, asserting the importance of speaking out and challenging the status quo. La Polla Records uses rock & roll not just as a musical genre, but as a powerful tool for social commentary and change.
