"You are so completely stuck in place that you can no longer see the shackles, the chains in which you dangle" hit me HARD holy shit what a good lyric even in English

I know, right, I love that line.

FUN FACT that I meant to put in the translation post but forgot, so the fact you happened to bring up this line is a perfect opportunity to do so:

This was one of those lovely lines that translate very directly into English - in particular, “the shackles, the chains, in which you dangle” is literally word-for-word. (In Icelandic the definite article, equivalent of ‘the’, gets stuck onto the word itself as a suffix - hlekki becomes hlekkina, keðjur becomes keðjurnar - and “í hverjum þú danglar” are literally “in which you dangle”, in that order.)

However, in Icelandic, we don’t actually usually use this grammatical construct! The usual way would be to write “hlekkina, keðjurnar, sem þú danglar í” (“the shackles, the chains, that you dangle in”). In English there’s this whole (pretty dubious, originating with pretentious people a few hundred years ago who wanted English to be more like Latin) thing about ending sentences in prepositions not being proper grammar, and the “in which...” sort of construction is commonly used in an effort to avoid that - but it’s completely accepted in Icelandic that sometimes sentences end in prepositions, and this “í hverjum...” construction is almost unheard of - you hear it sometimes, and it’s perfectly understandable, but it definitely sounds kind of quirky and unusual. Hatari are using it anyway there, but it’s not the normal way to say this. In some hard-to-explain way, I think it actually adds punch to the line.

Don't worry dude! The point of the bdsm thing is for it to be normalized imo. BDSM is a taboo subject and I have friends who practise it, and it's nothing to be ashamed of. I think this is what Hatari are doing. There's also apparently a big BDSM culture in Iceland and they wanna bring light to the fact that the main thing in BDSM is consent. So they also shed light on that. I certainly don't think you have to sexualise them to be a fan of theirs (c)

In fact I think a lot of people go overboard and sexualise them too much. Their music is mainly about politics anyway. I don't think that they want to be very sexualised in any way tbh. Like I think all of them are hot as FUCK but that's as far as it should go imo. So don't feel bad for being ace and a fan, sex is not the main thing about Hatari and you're not less valid ♡

Thank you for the insight @barrnes <3 The fact that Klemens is our thot boy and then says stuff like “it doesn’t always have to be sexual” makes me think you are right, maybe they don’t want to be sexualised, because normalising BDSM would teach people that just because they are into it doesn’t mean they want to do it with everyone XD (Or that there’s even a sexual element in the first place, I mean Matthías and Klemens are related ffs). It doesn’t give fans the right to be creepy, just because they dress up like they do and step on each other a little bit does not mean they consent to anyone else doing anything to them. Kinda like how nudity is no big deal in say, Finland, for example, but in the US, nudity is so sexualised that it’s scandalous to be naked and that anyone who exposes too much is “asking for it”. That said, I agree they are all very attractive in their own way and I understand why people fantasise over these things :’D There’s nothing wrong with that, so long as it doesn’t cross that line. Heck I have a bit of a fixation with Matthías, he’s quite traditionally handsome and his features remind me of a Roman statue. But I deal with that through drawing, not stalking. :/ Thank you for saying I’m not less valid omc T__T <3 I guess I just get insecure occasionally, you’d be surprised how much people patronise asexuals, sometimes without even realising. I was scared Hatari fans would do that to me because I don’t have the slightest interest in BDSM past the aesthetics and well, understanding what makes people tick. I was scared of losing this fandom (for lack of a better word) because it’s really been such a blast discovering this band and all the fellow crazy and hilarious people who’ve fallen under the same spell. But I know now I shouldn’t worry or overthink this... I think the real reason we all adore them so deeply anyway is because they’re precious cinnamon rolls <3

Oh yeah true. U can do “to us” because it’s their last line in the show; or “i get to love you” for the song from their wedding 💙

OMG I didn’t even think of “To Us”. That would be so simple but encompass them in such a fantastic way. I love that, thank you!

I know how you feel Laura, I've been like that all summer. It really sucks but I'm sure we will get back on our feet. Don't be hard on yourself, you can do this <3

It happens. Just do whatever helps you feel a bit of relief and happiness, and don't feel guilty, it'll pass eventually *hug*��

Thanks to the two of you for your kind words, I really appreciate them ♥♥♥♥
