Reveling in Hedonism: The Anthem of Los Mox!

Los Mox!, a Chilean punk rock band known for their irreverent and humorous lyrics, deliver a raw and unfiltered portrayal of hedonistic lifestyle in their song "Tomo y Obligo." The song opens with the protagonist waking up late in the afternoon, engaging in self-pleasure, and neglecting basic hygiene. This sets the tone for a day driven by indulgence and a lack of responsibility. The lyrics are blunt and unapologetic, reflecting a carefree attitude that is central to the punk rock ethos.

As the day transitions into night, the protagonist eagerly anticipates attending parties without any sense of guilt or remorse. The chorus, "El que no le pone es maricón, el que no es borracho no es un Mox!" (roughly translating to "If you don't get into it, you're a wimp; if you're not a drunk, you're not a Mox!"), reinforces the band's identity and the social pressure to conform to their hedonistic lifestyle. The use of strong language and provocative statements serves to challenge societal norms and celebrate a rebellious spirit.

The song continues with vivid descriptions of party scenes, where alcohol flows freely, and social interactions are driven by intoxication. The protagonist's interactions with others, particularly women, are depicted as opportunistic and driven by immediate gratification. The repeated line, "porque yo cuando tomo obligo" ("because when I drink, I oblige"), underscores a coercive element, highlighting the darker side of peer pressure and the consequences of excessive drinking. Through its raw and unfiltered narrative, "Tomo y Obligo" offers a glimpse into a subculture that revels in defiance and self-indulgence, while also hinting at the underlying emptiness and potential pitfalls of such a lifestyle.
