Last-Dinosaurs - From Mexico With Love
This Is A Tongue-In-Cheek Song That Pokes Fun At Anyone With An Inflated Ego. Hazy Synths Blistering Guitars And Distorted Vocals Blend Perfectly With The Sing-Along Chorus. The Bilingual Track Also Features A Bridge Sung In Spanish – A Common Theme For “Los Dinos ” As They Are Affectionately Known By Fans.
Lachlan Caskey Expands On The Song’s Meaning “The Hating Is Really A Manifestation Of My Feelings Toward My Own Country. I Think Any Morally Sound Citizen Of Their Own Country Should Possess A Healthy Level Of Criticism Towards Their Own Country. And When It Comes To Australia I’m Really Talking About A Lot Of General Traits That Apply To Many Rich And Extremely Fortunate Countries That Have Been Born Out Of Disgraceful Histories. I Hate The Hypocrisy Of Our National Character We Have Such Unpretentious Roots Yet In Our Material Wonderland We Produce Some Of The Most Self-Important Faux-Intellectual People Out Of Our Major Cities. We Have Chips On Our Shoulders Yet What For? We Are Living In Such Comparative Luxury. We Claim Ourselves To Be Laid Back But If You Are Not As Laid Back As Us You Are Harshly Criticized. We Claim To Be A Cheery Fun-Loving People But We Are Suckers For Fragile Masculinity And Physical Violence. So To All My Fellow Nationals And Those Of The World Who Are Curious This Is A Hate Letter To Australia Because I Want The Best For Us.”

This is a tongue-in-cheek song that pokes fun at anyone with an inflated ego. Hazy synths, blistering guitars, and distorted vocals blend perfectly with the sing-along chorus. The bilingual track also features a bridge sung in Spanish – a common theme for “Los Dinos,” as they are affectionately known by fans.
Lachlan Caskey expands on the song’s meaning:
“The Hating is really a manifestation of my feelings toward my own country. I think any morally sound citizen of their own country should possess a healthy level of criticism towards their own country. And when it comes to Australia, I’m really talking about a lot of general traits that apply to many rich and extremely fortunate countries that have been born out of disgraceful histories. I hate the hypocrisy of our national character: we have such unpretentious roots, yet in our material wonderland, we produce some of the most self-important, faux-intellectual people out of our major cities. We have chips on our shoulders, yet what for? We are living in such comparative luxury. We claim ourselves to be laid back, but if you are not as laid back as us, you are harshly criticized. We claim to be a cheery, fun-loving people, but we are suckers for fragile masculinity and physical violence. So, to all my fellow nationals and those of the world who are curious, this is a hate letter to Australia, because I want the best for us.” Read more on Last.fm.
