Gem Boy
Orgia Cartoon

THE REVIEW

"Sweet Remì, put your hand here, you'll feel the monkey WITH A D*CK THIS BIG!!!!" This was definitely the "chorus-hit" of my childhood, which everyone at school sang and sang again (although I must say that when I was a kid, the most hilarious laughs came from San Culamo).

Anyway, it is with this album that the Gem Boy managed to achieve a fair amount of notoriety. “Orgia Cartoon” is perhaps the crown jewel of the discography of the Bolognese group. Great credit goes to the charming vocalist Carletto, who in the legendary title track makes important revelations about the heroes of his childhood. No one is spared: Tiger Man, Heidi, Jeeg Steel Robot, the "lesbian" Lady Oscar, Remì, Kiss me Lycia, Gundam and, of course, Ufo Robot are mocked with their very own notes. For the kids (and I know because when I was 11, I thought this too) it is certainly the best you can get from music.

Other fantastic and hilarious songs include the equally legendary “Se non succhi non sale” and “La tua scoria tra le dita”. “The party of the uncle”, a cover of “Rotta x casa di Dio” by 883, wraps up “Orgia Cartoon”, followed by a mini ad for the "Ditta f.lli Iazzone", just to end on a demented note. A must-have for fans of the absurd. An excellent album when you want to have a laugh with friends.
