History of DYS

DYS dubble Album "Andspyrna" (PBP005)
Melodic anarchopunk. Dark, yet upbeat and hopeful. Think Rudimentary Peni and Brother Inferior although they have distinct Icelandic sound to them that's hard to describe. Includes a remastered version of their first CD entitled "Ísland Brennur" ("Iceland burns").
Punk rock veterans DYS’ second release. Influenced by English anarcho-punk and mixed with a little bit of metallic crust. Upbeat and dark at the same time and pretty catchy. Comes with a remastered version of their debut album "Ísland brennur" as bonus tracks.

Bertrand Kunzi, Guts of Darkness:
“DYS offers a high quality crust punk, that as plain as it might sound. The energy is direct but the guitar lines, dark and powerful, create strong, nearly mesmerizing melodies (‘Heimilisofbledi er allra skuggi’ is a moment of pure pleasure); the band succeeds in avoiding too smiliar drums, a few ‘slower’ breaks allows a real atmosphere to settle down.”
