BY THE OTHER SIDE Welcome in Zombie Land here everyone is a walking dead man This land is a land of sorrow and pain here people smile in order to hide in this place you repeat the same errors again and again Shall you come by the other side shall you see, how here we hide shall you come and laugh again loud shall you see how bright here the sky! There's no war out of the Zombie World there's no pain far from the Stupid Land You can Fly High By the Other Side you can Fly High By the Other Side Look far there they are everyone there is a walking dead man If you think you're real come up and see if you think you're real by the other side see how fake you are Shall you come by the other side….

The Meaning 05:14
THE MEANING I have read all your books I have heard all your words And I can't understand I have considered all I have seen your idols And I can't understand And I wish, I wish that I could tell what's the Meaning of things And I wish, I wish that I could tell what's the Meaning of things that Humans say… And I can't understand…

about

With this new work, Tarkampa talks again about freedom. By The Other Side is a way to observe the world from a different perspective.
Tarkampa's electronic psychedelic rock is taking us out there and showing how the real world is made of fake appearances, a land mostly populated by zombies, where only some can "see". If you fly high, says the title track, you will see how fake we are.
In the other songs the same ideas take different forms. We meet Hombre Carton, the urban anti-hero who is recovering cardboard on the streets of Barcelona: he is also by the other side, and he survives in zombie land. And then there is The Meaning: a questioning song about language and feelings, asking for a form of communication through love and contact, rather than written words and codes.
