MALTESE band SterjoTipi
have just released the title
track of their debut and up-
coming E.P. entitled 'Mostri'.
The previous two tracks of
their E.P. 'Ħajja ta' Xejn' and
'Int u Jien' were very well re-
ceived from fans and media,
with summer hit song 'Int u
Jien' reaching the Top 5 of
the Maltese PRS Chart and
over 66,000 views on You-
Tube.
SterjoTipi now presents
their listeners with a totally
different track from their
previous ones.
Mostri speaks about the
new phenomenon of high-
rise buildings in Malta. The
lyrics in the song speak about
the greed, ego and power
held by developers in Malta.
SterjoTipi want to voice
their concern, through this
song, about the lack of pru-
dence and respect towards
the Maltese landscape. The
exaggerated metaphor that
these "monsters" (referring
to the high buildings) are
blocking the sun ("jaħbulna
x-xemx") is purposely stated
in the song, to incite legisla-
tors to properly change or
amend present policies tar-
geting this issue.
In a way 'Mostri' is a patri-
otic song sung and played by
four young locals who have
Malta and its landscape close
to their hearts.
'Mostri', however is not, and
does not want to be associ-
ated with any political party,
movement or organisation.
The band consider the title
track to be a rock song which
people will enjoy listen-
ing to on their playlists and
podcasts. In fact, all of Ster-
joTipi's music can be found
on Spotify and all the other
media platforms such as Fa-
cebook and YouTube.
