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.

Divokej Bill Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
The lyrics of Divokej Bill's song Cesta allude to the concept of a bad master versus a good servant. The first line says "Co se ti zdálo, že je dobrej sluha, ale špatnej pán, zůstaneš tu sám na věky věků v breku", which translates to "What you dreamt of, a good servant but a bad master, you'll stay here alone forever in tears." This can be interpreted as a warning against being complacent and blindly serving a master who does not have your best interests at heart.
The lyrics then shift to a scene of a tired horse, possibly alluding to the idea of being overworked and trapped, with the lines "Nový ráno, ale ty už koně unavený máš, zůstaneš tu sám na věky věků v breku. Také strašně nešťastnej, já jsem taky strašně nešťastnej", which translates to "New morning, but you already have tired horses, you'll stay here alone forever in tears. Also terribly unhappy, I am also terribly unhappy." These lines show a sense of hopelessness and despair.
The final lines of the song refer to death, with the phrase "Dobrý ráno, smrtka se dívá, jede v káře bílé - propadlé tváře", which translates to "Good morning, death is watching, riding in a white coach - sunken faces." This can be interpreted as a reminder that death is always present, and that we should not waste our lives serving a bad master and being unhappy.
Overall, the song Cesta can be seen as a cautionary tale about being trapped and overworked, and the importance of taking control of our lives and choosing our own path.

Jak můžete srovnávat Kabáty s Divokým Billem? Vždyť je to úplně jinej styl

album Svatá pravda byl fakt super. songy jako Šibenice, Král, Svatá Pravda, Cizák, Cesta, Medvědář... to byly první songy, co jsem od DB poslouchal. pak jsem si sehnal i tu první Propustku a tam to taky stálo za to. ale to co od někoho slyšíš prvně, to se ti zapíše nejvíc. a pro mě jsou tyhle songy fakt naprosto nejlepší a nejsvatější od DB.
