The duo from Fogars de La Selva formed by Dèlia (Meconio, Ratpenat) and Dadavid (Tiznao, Decurs, N.I.T, Ratpenat) embodies the complementary union between two talents that have been key to understand Iberian DIY for over a decade, both being part of one of the fundamental collectives in Barcelona, Ojalá estë mi bici, as well as the SubPost label.
But don’t let the «who» divert our attention from the «what», as Caja de ordenación número 4 is one of today’s most transgressive bands. An uncompromisingly personal combo, whose music is not only capable of projecting an exciting and idiosyncratic poetic imaginary, but also directly escapes watertight stylistic comparisons. Dèlia and Dadavid transcend the musical genre to incorporate attributes of the performing arts, spoken word and even contemporary art.
With two albums released (the latest ‘Terra negra’ in 2022) and countless tours and kilometres of stage behind them, the music of Caja de ordenación número 4 – and their impressive live performances – are a shocking, inexplicable, raw and intimidating yet sophisticated experience. A proposal that is political and philosophical at the same time, and that mimes the artistic in its purest state. We find ourselves before one of the few truly personal rock bands of today. A duo that imbues their songs with so much truth and sharp beauty that they are able to achieve what almost no one else in the music scene is able to achieve.
