Beginning in 2000 DEAN DIRG self released a few cassettes that eventually let to their 10" vinyl debut entitled '9 Refreshing Ways to say FUCK OFF'. This 10" took the German underground by storm. Their distinct mix of mid 80's punk/hardcore alá Black Flag, Faith, Void and LARM sprinked with some of the more amped up aspects of newer rockers like the Hives, Henry Fiats Open Sore and the Reatards set them apart from being just another punk, hardcore or garage bands because of their appealing genre mixing.
Following this groundbreaking 10" that went in and out of print in a heartbeat, they released 2 phenomenal LP's. Their debut 'S/T' LP was released in 2002 on German based Pandoras Box Records and is also currently out of print. Following this album came the stellar 'Last Kid On The Block' LP released in 2004 on Germany's Stereodrive Records. Both of these albums are absolutely solid from start to finish and demonstrate the DEAN DIRG's signature short fast bursts of jagged, disconnected rock n roll dabbling occasionally in the pop arena all the while maintaining an aggressive edge thanks to Dophs tough ass vox and Clause’s pummeling git lix! Mild linear comparisons can be made to other contemporary greats like Kajun SS, the Catholic Boys, Krunchies and Feelers. Read more on Last.fm.
