The Damned put out a nice little piece of goth rock a few years back entitled In Dulce Decorum. Lovely little song, but the title troubles me because I don’t know just how it translates into English and I feel I might be missing a large chunk of message offered by this masterpiece.
Having just googled the lyrics of the song by The Damned, I can see a clearer connection between that song and Owen’s poem. They share roughly the same mood and evoke similar feelings of disgust at the gruesomeness of war.
