Dyatlov

Dyatlov is a new band from Rotterdam, in the Netherlands, featuring members of Beach Coma, Jibber Jabber & the Jams and Iguana Death Cult, which actually looks like a mutated version of Beach Coma as the band "disappeared" to better come back to life under this new form.
 
Before going any further let's make a short stop on the band's name; obviously of Russian origin it refers to Anatoly Dyatlov, the deputy chief-engineer of the Chernobyl nuclear power plant in charge of the test at the time of the "incident", who, on top of making one of the biggest technical fuck-up of the last century, was also responsible for ignoring the consequences and not reacting in a way that could have saved some lives (quite the contrary)... I guess the four Dutch have been as impressed as I've been by the 2019 Chernobyl TV show!
 
 

 So Dyatlov recently released a 2-track 7'' on the dutch label Spazz Records, that specialises in the craziest and loudest fringe of (mostly) Dutch "garage punk" you can think of including the excellent Forbidden Wizards and Pig Frenzy (a seriously good band, leaning towards post-punk).
And Dyatlov has his rightful place in the Spazz stable... With only two songs these guys manage to reach the heart of the game, frantically conjugating the recipe of crazy punk at all heights of rock'n roll...



Yes this cheap, absurd, disturbing and slightly ridiculous video (recalling a bit the Cuir ones, if Cuir was making good music) fits perfectly with the degenerate synth punk produced by our four maniac friends from the land of tulips and coffee shops. It's noisy, stupid and mean, it's wild, it's overflowing everywhere, it's fucking sick!
   
  Call it furious noise-synth-punk or just a pure rock'n roll band, these guys don't give a fuck and are here to engrave it with a dagger in your eardrums of little hipsters in down jackets.
Just put together in a bag bands like Headlice, Teengenerate, The Stools and Viagra Boys, shake vigorously for a solid half hour (DO NOT STIR) and savour with headphones and a suitcase of lukewarm Pils beer... 

N,J'Oi!





You can listen to Dyatlov on Rien à Faire #20.
