Unruhige Zeiten

Patrik Viitala (bass/vox), Jan Ferres (git/lead vox) and Kristian Ketola (drums)

For a long time I´ve made noises and insinuations here but now it´s high time to let the cat out of the bag: di unru is ready to strike!

The odd band name derives from the phonetics for the ambivalent German word Die Unruh. It means that little balance wheel in clocks and watches which makes them tick, as well as unrest, riot or turmoil. Yeah! We chose the moniker because it represents the lyrical content of the songs very well. Cynicism for the dark age.

Our style is maybe best described as a (post)punk/metal cocktail laced with new wave elements. Or something.
Too many genres, too many tags. You decide.

Always hard to describe your own music anyway, so we better let the music speak for itself, shall we?

Here´s our little stomper "Soapbox Dictator" for you that we recorded live on our first appereance ever, a private show on February 11th, 2012: 

As you might have noticed I deliberately sang slightly off-key and fucked up a few licks just to prove that we´re no robots. Our usual razor sharp precision would have only stirred up rumors we´d lip-sync to a playback track...yeah right.

Anyway, so far we got about 40mins + worth of own material and we´re goddamn hungry to play live as much as possible. So if you wanna book us or team up for a show together,
don´t waste any time and hit us up. Send your mail to pviitala@pp.nic.fi or contact us via that devil´s invention called Facebook. You can also "like" us there or send us naughty pictures, that´s up to you. But really, all serious gig offers are immensely appreciated!
