Text and music
According to Metal Hammer , the song is about dying. In fact, singer and songwriter Örs Siklósi deals with the death of his father, who died in the summer, in this song. All lyrics are written in Hungarian . Part of the play is written from the father's point of view and shows the suffering and final thoughts of a dying man. The aim of the band with the song is to draw attention to the awareness that the subject of death within the scene itself is largely regarded as something terrible. However, according to the musicians, people often try to talk to each other about this topic in order to appreciate the value of the time together.
Felix Bayer from the Spiegel online service describes Viszlát nyár as a modern metal song with hardcore influences and an “official refrain” that you don't have to speak Hungarian to roar along with. The music of the song is compared with Atreyu .
