Comando Mata-hippys

Ultimo Asalto's song 'Comando Mata-hippys' is a raw and aggressive critique of the hippie movement, reflecting a deep-seated disdain for the countercultural ideals that emerged in the 1960s. The lyrics paint a vivid picture of a group, the 'Comando Mata-hippys,' who have taken it upon themselves to rid the streets of what they see as the parasitic and unproductive elements of society. The song's tone is confrontational, emphasizing a stark opposition to the pacifist and communal lifestyle associated with hippies.

The song's narrative is built around the idea that hippies are a nuisance, living in communes without contributing to the working class ('Working Class'). The lyrics criticize their appearance and symbols, such as peace signs, which are seen as repulsive. This disdain is not just for their lifestyle but also for what they represent: a rejection of traditional work ethics and societal norms. The repeated chant 'Comando Matahippys' underscores the group's mission to eradicate these elements from their city.

Culturally, the song taps into a broader sentiment of frustration and anger towards the perceived failures of the hippie movement. The lyrics suggest that pacifism is a mistake and that direct action is the only solution. This reflects a more militant and perhaps nihilistic worldview, where the only way to achieve change is through force. The song's aggressive stance and call to action ('Vuestra hora va a llegar') highlight a desire for a return to order and traditional values, rejecting the countercultural revolution that the hippies symbolize.
