I pretty much love everything Jinjer has done. They are not commercial band, they do their own thing, inside or outside the box. You never know what they are going to do next. I have watched a lot of videos on early Jinjer were they are playing private parties and small venues. It is interesting how their music has evolved over the years, they are a fascinating band.

it is about the book by Franz Kafka "The Trial" thanx for your reaction, and this band is > sometimes I'm lost of words................................................ warm greetings from the german musician

Franz Kafka was an author in the early 1900s who died of tuberculosis at the age of 40 . If you have never read Kafka (like myself), then the lyrics are a lot to unpack with this one. Tatiana had this to say about the lyrics, which helped me a lot with context: “Being an artist is sometimes beautiful but most of the time it’s brutal… as our art is dissected word for word and ripped apart note by note, we‘re expected to be on point all-the-time … and when we aren’t, we are scandalized. A true artist is vulnerable but the crowd is most often plagued with vultures who pick at every single move you make. It’s a slippery slope when music means the world to us but how quickly praise turns into prosecution… We are all Kings and Queens for a day but most of the time it feels like a Kafka novel for a lifetime. It‘s exciting but surreal and absurd at the same time …”

Don't tell him, let him work it out for himself 😉

Rather more to the point, he died in 1924 -- this was a centenary tribute.

It's really painful watching someone try to think.
