The album actually has 15 tracks (if you count track No. 3 with no name, just 11 seconds of storytelling by an elderly lady speaking to a bunch of kids about kaņepu sviests, or hempseed butter). The album starts off with the band’s big hit, “Zilais valis” (The Blue Whale). It has been nominated for best rock song of 2005 at the annual Latvian Music Awards scheduled March 10 in Rīga. In the trail of the whale follows “100g,” a reference to the size of a shot of liquor in Latvia (100 grams is about 3.5 U.S. fluid ounces, or about a triple shot in the United States). It’s a quick ska-tempo drinking song. The fourth track, “Cemme” (Anger), is a witty, angry power guitar Green Day-type song. Then comes a song sung in English, “To Take Breathe.” It probably should be called, “To Take My Breath Away,” as per its lyrics. The song is fairly musically mundane. The lyrics are unfortunately uncomprehensible and the pronounciation poor. “16,” on the other hand is an uptempo modern remake of Olga Rajecka’s repetoire song, “Kad man vairs nebūs 16.” Rajecka even sings solo in the last part of the track. “Ja esi stulbs” (If You’re Stupid) features a moving bass line and some weird chord modulations towards the end of the track, making for a good dancing song. Next is “Krokodils” (The Crocodile). This is my favorite on the album, offering a compact rythmic barrage, with good lead vocals and harmonies, great drumming and nice counterpoint work between the guitars and bass guitar. All memb
