Bocs Social

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------


Bocs Social



Despite a pretty tongue-in-cheek. 'we're-a-bit-crap-we-are' bio, Bocs Social (no, I don't know why they're called that either) from Wicklow, flatter to deceive. Sure they won't be doing any 20 minute solos or prog-rock style concept albums anytime soon, but they're good at what they do, and, in their cheeky way they're not half bad despite the shoe-string production. The song I've slipped on is 'Whoa' which is a fantastic little ska-lite, indie sing-a-long that makes you think of The Futureheads (or early Police if your old enough to know) and the chorus of...well.. "wo oh, wo oh oh oh oh" will be sticking to you like blind stupidity to a Big Brother contestant. I am well taken with Boca's warm humour and bouncy pop. Don't go all Muse on me now lads. More of the same please.
