Es Solo Punk Rock Pero Nos Gusta

The song 'Es Solo Punk Rock Pero Nos Gusta' by Nihilismo is a raw and unapologetic anthem that captures the essence of punk rock. The lyrics reflect a defiant attitude towards societal expectations and a rejection of conventional success. The opening lines, 'No nacimos para triunfar, ni sikiera kisimos intentar,' translate to 'We were not born to succeed, we didn't even want to try,' setting the tone for a song that celebrates nonconformity and the freedom to be different.

Nihilismo, true to their name, embraces a nihilistic worldview, where traditional values and norms are dismissed. The lyrics 'los opuestos a lo igual, los ke nadie nunca eligira' ('the opposites of the same, the ones no one will ever choose') highlight their pride in being outsiders and rebels. This sentiment is further emphasized in the chorus, 'Es solo punk rock, pero nos gusta' ('It's just punk rock, but we like it'), which serves as a declaration of their love for the genre and its ethos of rebellion and authenticity.

The song also touches on the DIY (Do It Yourself) ethic that is central to punk rock. Lines like 'Cantamos lo ke keremos cantar, tokamos komo podemos tokar' ('We sing what we want to sing, we play how we can play') underscore the importance of self-expression and the rejection of polished, commercialized music. For Nihilismo, punk rock is not just a genre but a way of life that values sincerity and raw energy over technical perfection. This song is a celebration of that spirit, a reminder that sometimes, it's not about fitting in or achieving mainstream success, but about staying true to oneself and one's passions.
