The Mints They've always taken things with a sense of humor. Since 1998, they've been mocking everything in sight with a rockabilly beat, and no institution is safe from their words or their songs. Now they've even targeted religious institutions with their song. God (which is part of his latest work, God, the devil, and money), have made of Yatu, classic Venezuelan rocker, a deity of whom the Mentas themselves are followers and altar boys.
To speak of heavenly punishments and acts of rebellion against the divine in a quiet colonial city, where surely nothing ever happens, is in itself a finely crafted irony. We haven't yet received any reports of catastrophes in the hospitable city of Coro, where filming took place, but we wouldn't be surprised if there were calamitous consequences from this happy blasphemy. The Mentas always leave their poison wherever they go; it's simply a matter of waiting for the potion to spread.
Oh, and the final line of the clip is memorable; it surely startled more than one unsuspecting passerby.
