about
'Gordosti' from forthcoming 'Siasya' EP by Ragapop
lyrics
Гордості родять тирана
Пхають до діл неподобних
До безхосенних же діл
Та на найвищу високість
Вибравшись, падають раптом
В темну безодню стрімглав,
Де вже нема під ногами
Грунту твердого
Горе вам, горе, людські покоління
Поки живі, ви мов тінь та марна
Бо чи ж бува кому більшеє щастя
Як коли сам себе чує щасливим
І з тим чуттям умира?
----------------------------------------
Insolence gives birth to tyranny
That insolence which vainly crams itself and overflows with so much stuff
Beyond what's right or beneficial,
That once it's climbed the highest rooftop
It's hurled down by force such a quick fall
There's no safe landing on one's feet
O generations of mortal men
How I count your life as scarcely living
What man is there, what human being, who attains a greater happiness
Than mere appearances, a joy which seems to fade away to nothing?

The gorgeous new dreampop LP from Persica 3 is split into two halves, the first swirling and shoegazey, the latter quieter and moodier. Bandcamp New & Notable Mar 7, 2022
There’s a mighty cinematic sweep in the songs on the latest from Badlands, the big and imposing orchestration with dreamlike vocals. Bandcamp New & Notable Nov 27, 2022
Sweden's Catharina Jaunviksna, aka Badlands, creates gently glowing '80s-inspired pop - think of it as new wave in pastel rather than neon. Bandcamp New & Notable Mar 2, 2021
