about
Kitro in greek means "Citrus" which is like the father of bitter fruits. It is also a Greek liquor. It symbolizes the bitter things we have to swallow in order to cure ourselves. Like a medicine has strong bitter taste but it makes you feel better once you are past that part. In other words you have to swallow the bitter situations so you can move past them and cure yourself.
lyrics
Kitro
Κιτριά φρουτοκοιλάδα
Φυλλωσιά ηχώ σαν άρπα
Άρωμα οξύ υγρό αγέρι
Ομορφιά κυκλαδική
Λεμονιά ψηλή μακριά να βλέπει
Πέλαγα να νοσταλγεί
Και να, κίτρο να πιεις και να μεθύσεις
Και να, κίτρο να πιεις και να τσουγκρίσεις
Κίτρινα φρουτολιβάδια
Όξινα γλυκοπικρά
Άρωμα οξύ υγρό αγέρι
Ομορφιά κυκλαδική
Λεμονιά ψηλή μακριά να βλέπει
Πέλαγα να νοσταλγεί
Και να, κίτρο να πιεις και να μεθύσεις
Και να, κίτρο να πιεις και να τσουγκρίσεις
Και να, στα χίλια μύρια να βαδίσεις
Και να, κίτρο να πιεις να μη γυρίσεις
Citron, fruit valley
Leaves echoing like harp
Aroma sharp, wet wind
Cycladic beauty
Lemon tree tall to see far
Nostalgic of seas
Drink Kitro and get drunk
Drink Kitro and toast
Yellow fruit meadows
Sour and bittersweet
Aroma sharp, wet wind
Cycladic beauty
Lemon tree tall to see far
Nostalgic of seas
Drink Kitro and get drunk
Drink Kitro and toast
Walk a thousand miles
Drink Kitro and don’t return

As a Frenchman, I discovered VIC very late (2019-2020). I fell in love with Age Of Aquarius. Well, I have to say: I love Riza even more.
If you love Greece (I've been there 4 times), you'll love VIC: a rock marked by traditional Greek music and instruments. Agesilas
The Long Island metal band's third album etches arena-sized hooks into their jagged compositions, deftly balancing experimental and poppy inclinations. Bandcamp Album of the Day May 12, 2022
