The Swedish band Gaupa was one of the best discoveries of the Berlin Desertfest 2023. For the band, musical boundaries only exist to be torn down, no musical style contradicts the other, but rather complements it. This energetic and anarchistic attitude can be heard in the underlying punk attitude in this song. The lyrics also seem to me to be more of a quite personal sound alphabet filled with existential feelings and expressions, a barely unknown combination in this genre. This compact organic sound is rounded off with a reborn voice from Grace Slik; Hippie-, Stoner-, Punk- and Kraut-heart, what more could you want? And if the new album is even half as outstanding as this song, it is still exceptionally good.
