DVTR Live Aux Foufs! From the Punk Duo's Incendiary December 2024 Show at Montreal's Legendary Foufounes Electriques, Releases April 18th

Featuring Bangers From the BONJOUR (BIS) EP, Recent Single Né Pour Flàner, and New & Unreleased Cuts Including Brand New Single K.C.D on CD, Digital & VHS!

A real spark in the new Montreal franco punk scene, DVTR celebrates two years of wild rides throughout the world with a new live album recorded at the legendary Foufounes Electriques on December 5th 2024. In the midst of all its sonic chaos, many new unreleased tracks and alternate versions of recent classics such as DVTR, Vasectomia and Les Olympiques are unveiled. More than ever, the vicious and relentless live energy of Demi Lune, Jean Divorce and their posse of masked musicians is clearly displayed on this record.

The key single K.C.D. (Kid, Couple, Entertainment) is one of those new songs: a psychotic rant that launches DVTR’s show with a bang that has made fans jump around in almost 100 shows since 2023. 

The CD, VHS and digital download will be available from April 18th at www.dvtr.bandcamp.com

In the past year, DVTR has definitely been shaking up the Canadian punk scene, racking up dazzling reviews, best of 2023 lists, sold out shows and some bootlicking awards for their first ever EP BONJOUR. Somewhere between the B-52s and fast DIY punk à la Jay Reatard, Demi Lune & Jean Divorce’s troublemaking duo pours out its bile on often surprising, sometimes awkward, and always salvatory soundscapes. Its unpredictable stage antics break all language barriers, already taking the band on stages everywhere from Mexico to the UK.  

DVTR is French-speaking, female-fronted, short and not sweet at all: it repeats, it repeats, it repeats – that’s the only way to get the message across. Vasectomy for all, ACAB, Rhum coke and MDMA, etcetera, etcetera. A simple fuck off to anyone who’d need a reminder before everything burns?  

"Bonjour (BIS) is packed with driving beats, powerful electric guitar riffs, punchy melodies, and staccato vocal melodies that convey deeper meanings.... (DVTR are) committed to dismantling the status quo with every song they release, all while having a blast doing it." – Earmilk (US)

"...a collection of songs which provide a wild ride, raucous and ferocious yet catchy and danceable." – God Is In The TV Zine (UK)

"...pure punk rock carnage." – RANGE Magazine (CA)

“This duo is f*cking mental.” – Louder Than War (UK)
  
"DVTR is on the rise: Fuck-about-and-find-out Québécois punks are channelling free-spirited outsiderism."
– The Line of Best Fit (UK)

"DVTR are another unmissable proposition that’s both musically taut and unforgettably wild in equal measures. The duo - Demi Lune and Jean Divorce - are a formidable force"  - Under The Radar Magazine (US)

“DVTR provides the audience with an exhilarating performance. The excitement could be felt as the energy from the duo rippled through the room and the audience enjoyed their complex mix of electronic and punk.” – Clash Magazine (UK)

"All would remember when they experienced DVTR for the first time. The visual impact is immediate. (…) Magnificent.” - Slap Mag (UK)

" “DVTR” is a breakneck, blistering and incisive ripper built around scorching riffage, a relentless motorik-like groove, a shouted mantra-like chorus, mosh pit friendly hooks paired with G-Do’s feral shouts.” – The Joy of Violent Movement (US)

"This is a live band doing what great live bands do, live: entertaining, f*cking with people’s heads, having fun, and showing what they’ve got – crazy licks – without showing off.” – Cult MTL (CA)
