PRESENTED BY TIA MINUII
Orges Toçe's voice is like a shovelful of gravel pickled in whiskey; his lyrics careen between cryptic sociopolitical pronouncements, back-to-the-land utopianism, hymns to the bicycle and drunken philosophy. Orges & The Ockus-Rockus Band plays fingerpickin' country with a Balkan influence and a drunken, burlesque jazz aesthetic: rough-and-ready roots music and Devil take the hindmost--except when they slide into rolling ska or, even more surprisingly, contemplative tenderness.
The new record (Export-Import!, Toçe Records) conjures a world of anthropomorphic bugs, witches, bribe-seeking border police in dark glasses, fat bosses in big cars...but most of all people everywhere, striving, scheming, sweating out hangovers and dreaming of sun and trees in post-industrial landscapes, shoebox apartments and around three-legged tables in basements that reek of spilled beer and cigarette smoke--all with a healthy portion of black humor and pure joie de vivre.
As the drunken sages recommend: Eat, drink and be merry, for Death sits at the table with you--and when he gets bored he goes to work. Hajde!
