An 8-piece Czech band from Úvaly near Prague, formed in 1996. DB is both hated and loved by many because of its simple but sometimes quite catchy lyrics and music where we can hear many instruments, but is not too complex in the first place.
It is hard to define what genre Divokej Bill is. Sometimes its music is defined as folk rock, celtic rock, country and so on; members think it might be "redneck rock" as they are from a small town and are influenced by it.
DB has attended a lot of festivals in last few years like its home Ouvalskej bigbít, Rock for People or Masters of Rock. DB also does a lot of its own gigs nationwide.
Divokej Bill is closely related to Medvěd 009 because they are both from Úvaly, and Vašek Bláha is a singer and guitarist in both bands.

ALKOHOL
Divokej Bill Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Už mě má přítel
Alkohol
V hrsti rukama zubama,
Kroutí mi nohama
Polyká mě a já v jámě
Hady počítám kvůli dámě,
Co na mě usmívá se,
Alkohol, přítel
Alkohol hladí mý tělo mladý
Takže zdyde z něj jenom vrak
Je to tlak, no a tak
Přítel Alkohol
Po srsti hladí mý tělo mladý,
Takže zbyde z něj jenom vrak
Polyká mě a zas,
Výraz v očích pod obraz kvůli dámě,
Co na vás usmívá se,
Ale mně láme vaz Alkohol,
Přítel Alkohol...
The song "Alkohol" by Divokej Bill is a heartfelt track that delves into the emotions of a person who is struggling with alcoholism. The singer of the song is deeply entrenched in his addiction and describes alcohol as his friend who is always with him. The opening lines suggest that the singer is already inebriated, as he notes that alcohol is already here and has him in its grip, held tightly in the hands and teeth. The alcohol is affecting his body and causing him to feel dizzy and disoriented, as he describes his legs twisting and turning under him.
As the song progresses, the singer admits that he is in a pit because of his addiction, and that he is barely holding on. However, he continues to rely on alcohol as his only source of comfort and warmth, even though he knows it is slowly destroying him. He counts snakes, hallucinating due to the excessive drinking, and imagines a woman smiling at him. Despite this, he knows that he cannot rely on it forever and that he needs to find the strength to overcome his addiction.
Overall, "Alkohol" is a poignant song about addiction and the struggle to overcome it. The lyrics are raw and powerful, and the emotions conveyed in the song are palpable, making it a standout track that speaks to the hearts of many.

Už mě má přítel
My friend already has me under its grasp
Alkohol
Alcohol, the friend in question
V hrsti rukama zubama,
Grasping with hands and biting with teeth
Kroutí mi nohama
Twisting my legs
Polyká mě a já v jámě
Swallowing me and leaving me in a pit
Hady počítám kvůli dámě,
Counting snakes due to a lady
Co na mě usmívá se,
Who smiles at me
Chlupama vobalená
Wrapped in fur
Alkohol, přítel
Alcohol, the friend
Alkohol hladí mý tělo mladý
Alcohol caresses my young body
Takže zdyde z něj jenom vrak
Leaving only a wreck behind
Je to tlak, no a tak
It's pressure, that's how it is
Po srsti hladí mý tělo mladý,
Caressing my young body
Takže zbyde z něj jenom vrak
Leaving only a wreck behind
Polyká mě a zas,
Swallowing me again
Výraz v očích pod obraz kvůli dámě,
The expression in the eyes behind the facade, due to a lady
Co na vás usmívá se,
Who smiles at you
Ale mně láme vaz Alkohol,
But she breaks my heart, Alcohol
Přítel Alkohol...
Friend Alcohol...
