    The fence was an electric fence meant for keeping cattle from escaping. Hence when the first guy peed on it he had these weird expressions when the electric current shocked him. The second guy who drank the gasoline ended up blowing himself up for the same reason. Finnish humour at it's best I suppose.

    There's an old Finnish saying: 'If booze, tar and sauna won't help (you), the disease is fatal.'
    = 'Jos ei viina, terva ja sauna auta, tauti on kuolemaksi'.
    They changed sauna to hauta (grave), and don't really speak of how to help. I mean they mention the word help, but no real advice is given.

    The songs name translates to Boooze, Tar and Grave, and its kinda reference to this old Finnish saying "If it cant be healed with booze, tar (cigarettes) and sauna, the disease is fatal"
    They only changed the sauna to hauta (grave)
    The chorus says:

    ember fades, ashes tarnish, the cold finds its way home like frost to home, ashes thick

    Kouvostoliitto, also known as Kouvola, is a sister Soviet city of a another city known as Chernobyl/Pripyat.
    Just look at their comparison and you will notice, it is hard to tell each other apart.
    Also if you know bit of Finnish, you might notice that Kouvostoliitto is combination of Kouvola and Neuvostoliitto (Soviet Union).

    • @karju4
      @karju4 5 лет назад +1

      Have to add that the transition in video from bikers to "hikers" is because in Kouvostoliitto everything is like anywhere else but a little bit worse. Thats why bikes turn to mopeds and girls turn to men... Band is from Kouvola which came Kouvostoliitto i guess when surrounding "cities" joined to city of Kouvola few years back. I'm not sure about that sistercity theory but they have some similarities. At least they both have areas where normal people wouln't live on...

    There's a really old proverb in Finland: If tar, liquor and sauna does not bring help, the decease is going to kill you. The song's name translates as liquor, tar and tomb and i'm really not even trying to draw some connections with the lyrics and the video. Think they just wanted to make a cool video for the song. The song kinda paints a picture of the Finnish peoples dark mentality and our dark sense of humor too. In my opinion at least it does.
    Think you guys could get a new view on the songs, if you would google up the lyrical translation after watching the video and hearing a song on a foreign language. Could be kinda cool to see you have the first impressions and then see how they differ after seeing whan the song was about.

    • @Spetulhu
      @Spetulhu 5 лет назад

      Aye, you got the literal translation nailed.
      Just as in any other place with stories of Death the scythe is his attribute, so the name of the band is ominous - and while the music might sound kind of upbeat the lyrics are often pretty dark if you stop to think about them. Viina, terva ja hauta - that's almost but not quite an old Finnish saying (hauta should be sauna). "Jos ei viina, terva ja sauna auta tauti on kuolemaksi", my translation "if strong alcohol, tar and sauna doesn't help the sickness will result in death". Old folk medicine, that is. Alcohol is pure, tar was thought to have healing properties and the sauna was both a place for cleaning yourself and the place where you'd practice medicine.

    The fence that he pissed on was a standard electric fence. There is an old Finnish saying "Kuse sähköpaimeneen." or "Kuse muuntajaan." which means, "Go piss on an electric fence/transformer", and if you do that, you will not be having a good time. It's used pretty much the same as "Go fuck yourself." Finnish language is awesome.

    If you want to learn how to pronounce Finnish it is really easy. Once you learn the sounds it is simple. It is pronounced exactly as it is written, because the language is old, but the written language is really young.
    If there are double vocals, it means it is a long vocal, if it is one vocal it is short vocal.
    So Viikate, has to i:s. Therefore the i is long. So not Vikate, but Viiiiiiikate. Long I!

      Doesn't much help. People of other countries would still pronounce the letters differently.
      But yeah, letters are said similarly no matter what other letters are around it... Except in few exceptions (syntactic gemination), when the consonant might get doubled in speech although only one is written - or an extra consonant said in the end of the word, although none is written.

      Funny thing about salmiakki is, I hardly know a Finn who's actually into it. Yet it's always mentioned as if it's our favorite sweet.

      Dude no xD that would sound like wiikeit. Viikate is pronounced more like vee- ca(as in the word car)- te(as in the word temple)

    I need to say that there is so many ”Finnish inside jokes”, that you might not understand everything. Example is that when their motorcycles changed, they drove to ”kouvostoliitto” which is like joking about communism and one finnish town kouvola. Neuvostoliitto=soviet union :)
