Datblygu - The Peel Sessions 1987 - 1993




Many years ago, The Saintly John Peel raved about Datblygu every time they released something and that is where they introduced themselves to me. Quite randomly, I went back to listen to what I have and remembered just quite how brilliant they are. Classic dour and spirited UK post-punk. If you struggled to come to terms with the accents with The Fall and Sleaford Mods then it's worth saying that they are from Wales and sing in Welsh ... just dive in, it's proper good.

CD released on Ankst in 2008.

spooky... was just listening to these the other day as well! I also first heard them on Peel and didn't really take to them at first... of course, now, I don't know what my younger self was thinking!
