Lyrics (found the translation on this site, which is definitely worth visiting to learn more about the group) are below. I've removed the original Japanese and Romanji transcriptions so that it is easier to read:

Title:
え・い・り・あ・ん
e i ri a n
A - L - I - E - N

Words and lyrics by Maximum the Ryo-kun

Flattering government
Deceiptful presentation
Fabricated details
Danger enterprise

Praise and censure creed
Jumbled up truth
All of Japan deploring
Has nihilism come?

Self-contradiction, loop of complaints
Fall into dilemma, many cases of depression
Swarming around rights, self-important men in suits
Coveting usury, some group or other

Self-interest slave loaded with empty arguments
Money disappears as vain expenses
Embracing distrust, discord arises
Standing idly on the side, discover indignation


Ego? Freedom? LOL. / Fart stench, sinister / “Why don’t you…?” Selfish
Ego? Freedom? LOL. / Fart stench, sinister / “Why don’t you…?” Selfish

Save me!! Treatment is yet to come!! / Throw it away!! Treatment is yet to come!! / Take it off! Treatment is yet to come!!
Save me!! Treatment is yet to come!! / Throw it away!! Treatment is yet to come!! / Take it off! Treatment is yet to come!!

Twenty years old, head to the election!!
The elected official will not be allowed into office!

A judge determintes eligible voters / Discretely and delicately / Straight to the future
Believe in the Force...Jedi
Believe in the Force...Jedi
Believe in the Force! Era!!

“I get it I get it I get it! You idiots!”
“Later Later Later I’ll e-mail you later”
“Your whiny whiny whining is noisy, idiot! Stop going out of your way to be so annoying”

“Chopper, go! Futoshi!”*
*Translator’s note: Futoshi is MTH’s bassist

Brother rescue
Brother let’s go
We are brothers, WE!!
You’re my brother, YOU!!

Booing, at you! A touch of abusive language! Booing! At that! STOP! Conspiracy!
Booing, at you! A touch of abusive language! Booing! At that! Prevent! Conspiracy!

Whose ally??? Whose ally???
Only your way of life cannot be taken by anyone

Vaaaaaaaaaa!!! Vaaaaaaaa!!! GO!!!

Every day meaning scrutiny / Every day meaning scrutiny / Every day meaning scrutiny

Alien, alien, kidnap me like in a movie...
Alien, alien, I am no match for eternity


STOP! STOP WINNY UPLOAD!!
STOP! STOP WINNY UPLOAD!!
*Translator’s note: Winny was a p2p pirating software like napster that was very popular in Japan but isn’t really used anymore. In an interview, Ryo-kun (who does hate when his music is pirated, I think) was asked why he used such an old reference, he mentioned that he wanted to have a catchy “STOP” phrase where other stuff like “STOP NUKES” could be replaced.

STOP! STOP WINNY UPLOAD!!
STOP! STOP WINNY UPLOAD!!

STOP! STOP WINNY UPLOAD!!
STOP! STOP WINNY UPLOAD!! STOP WINNY!

STOP! STOP WINNY UPLOAD!!
STOP! STOP WINNY UPLOAD!!

STOP! STOP! STOP! STOP THE WINNY!
STOP! STOP! STOP! STOP THE WINNY!

STOP! STOP! STOP! STOP THE WINNY!
STOP! STOP! STOP! STOP THE WINNY!

STOP! STOP! STOP! STOP THE WINNY!
STOP! STOP! STOP! STOP THE WINNY!

STOP! STOP! STOP! STOP THE WINNY!
STOP! STOP! STOP! STOP THE WINNY!

STOP! STOP! STOP! STOP THE WINNY!
STOP! STOP! STOP! STOP THE WINNY!

STOP STOP! STOP STOP!
STOP STOP! STOP STOP!
STOP STOP WINNY!

STOP STOP WINNY!

PV spoken ending:

D: We will not forgive use of WINNY under any circumstances! Anything but WINNY!

N: People aren’t even using WINNY these days. And there are plenty of other things we have to say “STOP!” to. So there’s no point in raising your voice like that. All the kids have left.

D: But, we can’t allow any more uploads...

N: No, I know, but look at the one kid left, about to cry.

D: (to kid) You think so too, don’t you?

N: No no no! She definitely has no idea. And now the last kid has left. You hate WINNY too, don’t you? I said, no one uses WINNY anymore.
Look at you, over there looking like Mitsue (Daisuke’s mom)...

D: What?!

N: Get that Mitsue look off your face.

N: It's one thing to talk bad about me...!

End

At first I was like, "he is stealing his pants."

Then I was like, "When did a handie become standard revival technique?"

I guess if they had a ring girl doing the "reviving" everyone would get knocked out right away.
WTF seems like it doesn't convey the oddness fully.
*sexuality

I have played Blood Dragon.....3 times now.


@9547bis 's point still stands. 80's revivalism/nostalgia has been with us before either this or Blood dragon (I'm pretty mad into my "retro synthwave" at the moment)

Blood Dragon has
No Nazis
No Thor
No "Hacking through time"
No Bright red 80' sports cars
No Vakyrie warrior maidens

i.e. basically anything in common other than being inspired by the cheesiest elements of a particular decade.

Plus Blood dragon while also being very very silly had a somewhat more realistic edge to it than this and draws more on war and sci-fi films & games. Rather than the broader action & kung fu film strokes in this trailer.

I'm not saying there can't have been maybe a touch of inspiration/motivation from blood dragon, but the material they have produced so far bears no resemblance to me of a rip off in any way shape or form.


It's like saying The Last Starfighter was a rip off of Starwars.
Last Starfighter may have been motivated by the success of Starwars but the resulting film felt entirely original (well as original as any standard format hero epic).

Yeah. The logo (an 80s cliché), and dinosaurs (another 80s cliché). "Everything" indeed.

Has it occurred to you that two works both based on 80s B-movies, and therefore not original material, will likely share many traits, without having to copy each other (the Kung Fury project was started around a year ago, according to its kickstarter page)?

80s revival did not start 8 months ago. A number of retro music projects, rebooted film franchises, and B-movie parodies have been popping up for the last few years, it was only a matter of time before a mid/maybe-full length movie happened. Who's late-blooming again?

"You Tube comment: Oh Lord, this is as good as sex!"

Yeah....if yer a big fan of the folk revival and hootenannies-schlagen-hit-parade....Beatles without instruments sounds like camp-out sing-a-long, eh?

Up-vote for bros' and track separation(always a big fan)-
WARNING: Digging on entire album like this may melt brain

*dead and soon to be revived....

http://videosift.com/video/Jimmy-Carr-What-You-Can-And-Cannot-Say-On-Stage

Could someone do me the honor of reviving it?

--never mind, have a dupe then

Madness and UB40, The Specials, English Beat, the ska revival and reggae made the 80's way more tolerable than it could have been musically...There was some shitty rock and roll in the 80's, just sayin'....

I'm sayin' fuck Sammy Hagar joining Van Halen is what I'm sayin'!!

I have no clue who managed to revive Cracked and finally beat MAD in the decade long battle but that guy should get a raise.

Do you have a thing for poetry slammage dystop?? I have always voiced my disdain for that dated, revived-and-now-forgotten lyric poetry sheit-
Most is pretentious and only a few have the whole package with which to pull it off-

The yt description explains it a bit:

Seiji is tormented by horrible tsunami-flashback dreams, but one night he wakes up and his beloved grandfather has appeared. With a strum of his grandfather's guitar, Seiji is transported to a colorful, slightly strange, psychedelic world and finally manages to have a good dream.

*kill, to be revived once again

is this how you revive a video?
*backup=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zQ7G79WvTPE

I'm pretty sure it's this dead video. http://videosift.com/video/If-only-I-had-a-gun

It certainly deserves to be revived and promoted now.
