Overview
Az Isten álljon meg! is a Sziámi record built around the words of Müller Péter Sziámi, one of the most distinctive voices in Hungarian alternative culture — a lyricist and frontman whose songs work as poetry, provocation, and performance all at once. The music behind him is restless art-rock, never settling into one mode for long.
Across fifteen tracks the writing is sharp and unafraid: "Mindenki mondjon le!," "Síntévesztő," "Plasztiksebész." There's social satire, wordplay, and a streak of the absurd running throughout, delivered with the theatrical energy that has defined the project for decades.
A strong document of Hungarian alternative rock from a band that has always treated lyrics as the main event.
