The Brixton Moord & Roof Orkes [tr: Brixton Murder and Robbery Band] is an underground Afrikaans rock band that originated in Brixton, a suburb of Johannesburg, South Africa. The music journalist Myles Keylock called them “cult Afrikaans rock outsiders”. They have released five albums, namely Spergebied [tr: Restricted zone] (2002), Terug in skubbe [tr: Back in scales – don’t worry, it is as obscure in Afrikaans] (2004), Slaaptyd in die suburbs [tr: Bedtime in the suburbs] (2014), Bazaar punk [no need to translate that] (2022), and Strate sonder bome [tr: Streets without trees] (2023). The band’s music veers between rocking party songs and melodic ballads, with musical influences from rock, punk, folk, jazz, reggae and kwêla (the latter an indigenous South African music genre).
