BATALJ is an experimental noise/trash/auditory mayhem outfit currently based in Berlin.
With distorted analog synthesizers accompanied by frantic drum assaults, effect-drenched guitar arrangements and shrieking vocals the three-piece concocts a barely comprehensible soundscape of deformed rythms, riffs, blasts, bleeps and more or less controlled chaos. Taking their cues from diverse musical damaged goods hailing from hardcore punk all the way through to harsh experimental noise BATALJ creates a truly furious and highly inventive sonic assault.
The past three years the band has extensively toured Europe and the UK, played hundreds of shows alongside bands such as Child Abuse, Staer, Retox and Divorce and released two 7-inch splits, a self-titled 7-inch EP (Et Mon Cul C’est Du Tofu? and Twintoe Records) as well as been on various compilations. Their most recent creation, a very limited cassette release is out now on London-based label SixSixSixties Records.
