Don’t Be A Fascist by Tantrum Zentrum



There are two themes, really. The most obvious one is about how destructive extreme political ideologies can be, dividing families, lovers, friends. The less obvious one is about language and my mother’s background. She was born and grew up in Southern Bosnia and the way they speak is very interesting to me. In addition to their dialect of Bosnian, they also incorporate many (mostly corrupted) words borrowed from Italian, French, German, Turkish and Arabic. In our latest song, I mimicked that by mixing Bosnian and German with English.”

Tantrum Zentrum delivers a thought provoking Post-Punk creation that delves into two distinct yet entwined themes.  Using a striking blend of languages while unflinchingly exploring extreme political ideologies “Don’t Be A Fascist” is a clever soundscape that encourages reflection, dialogue and understanding of the world around us.  “Don’t Be A Fascist” has captivating melodies, intoxicating layered vocals and clever intermingling lyrics. A testament to the power of music as a vessel for both meaningful storytelling and authenticity the song has both lyrical depth and musical innovation.
