Perhaps those are related to the characters in the cellar, it’s not clear. Though, in the end, Father Martin still tells Monsieur Clavier for the irresistible reward.ġ70 and Bris do not follow this storyline. Martin tells Dominique to find a double for Tony, run away, and start a new life. Now, Dominique is in trouble and pleads to the mafia priest Father Martin to help him. Tony decided to play Russian roulette (in Rullett) and died. Kaizer, often meets in Marcello’s cellar for drinks, music, and Russian roulette.īak et Halleluja is about Dominique, whose job was to protect Tony Fusciante. Marcello Conradas is the sailor in the songs Dekk Bord, Bøn fra Helvete, and Ompa til du Dør. The album is not in chronological order, but it roughly follows one storyline. General CommentAll the Kaizers Orchestra song meanings (and translations) you could ever need are right here under the sections: /kaizersinst/… It is about Tony's brother confessing to the preist because he beleives the fact that Tony died from Russian Roulette is his fault. This song is linked with resistansen, rullet, Mr. You may become as most people, or you may become a priestīut never return cos your days here are numbered You may take a handful out of our collection Track him down, set up a contract, give him money I said, Russian roulette's not a good ideaĬos nobody can say no to the amount Monsieur Clavier gaveĪnd only Father martin knows what's behind a hallelujah I'm standing in boots of concrete, Father help me I've broken Monsieur Clavier's regulations All songs written by Janove Ottesen, except where noted.It's my fault that Tony's packed in a car cover Lyrics for all songs are in the Norwegian language. The band has said that the songs are more individual than their older compositions. The lyrics also relate to each other to a lesser extent than Ompa til du dør. A majority of the songs are about torment of the soul, heaven, hell, death and loneliness. However, Evig pint remains one of the albums with most consistency in its overall review score released in Norway to date.Įvig pint has a generally darker atmosphere than its predecessor, both musically and lyrically. Ultimately, the album did not sell as well as Ompa til du dør and disappeared from the charts in Norway considerably faster. In 2004, the album, together with the band's earlier and later releases, was re-released throughout Europe, due to the band having signed a contract with Universal Germany. Lastly, it was re-released as a bundle together with the 2002 EP Mann mot mann. It was also released as a digipak CD and LP. The album was later re-released in other countries, but unlike Ompa til du dør, without changes.

Thus, it was kept as an exclusive live song, and was not released on any album until the band's live album Live at Vega in 2006.
