Chwaer Pwy? 02:19
Mae’n poeni ni, dy agwedd di Hanafu ni, i beidio a dweud dim byd Paid wneud dim byd, adeiladwch reality Atgoffa ni, pam rydy ni’n cael ein cosbi? Pwy yw y bradwr nawr? bocs sebon lawr Y pwerus yn aros yn pwerus Y pwerus yn cysgu’n gadarn Y pwerus yn gwario’r dy arian felli dy ni’n dweud ‘iawn, iawn, iawn’ Nid oes gan y boss n’ar gweithwr unrhywbeth yn gyffreddin She said “We are willing to listen but this is all so ideological!” Mae’n poeni ni, dy agwedd di Bron a thagu ar eironi ond dy ni’n goroesi

Dim Siawns 02:34
Rwyn wedi bod yn bwydo ei phlentyn mewnol Am lawer rhi hir Taflu o gwmpas making allowances chwilio am unrhywbeth wir Just fel y canodd Sue I like you mostly late at night adrift in a medium sized city of birth defects I’m like I and I and I Fallujah I and I and I If you can’t Help the Aged? join them Beth bynnag fe wnewch, paid becso Beth bynnag fe wnewch, paid llefen Mae gan fy ffrindiau strategaeth perfaith I’m sure you’re understand our needs When they finally cut us open Our lungs will all look just like trees What’s that one about being freed from desire? Mindless and senseless I’m a male voice choir Beth fi eisiau? Dyna’n gyfrinachol

Roeddet ti ar streic a scab oeddwn i Y crachen ti’n wedi stopio crafu yn sydyn a nawr fy ngroen yn crawling fel y hen dyddiau It's pissing down on the A48 Edrychais ar y ffordd ddeuol Chwilio am tamaidd bach o siebiant o dan neis Eddie Stobart gwyrdd a sgleiniog Oes lle ar gael i mi yn y siambrau claddu gymunedol? Chewy Co-op Tortellini Y wagle yn dy wyneb di Bwyto ni sglods yn fucking Dynbych y Pysgod I consider ancestral logic and the bitter glance of a neolithic divorcee Resigned to the admin, she's resigned Roedd rhaid y rhywun rheoli’r project Roedd rhaid y rhywun tali’r insurance Ni’n rhani sweet potato fries yn Abergwaun Under a racist mural Cymeroedd y bwyd hanner awr mind ond.. fair play rhybyddodd hi ni Stopio ni yn Asda yn Llanelli I brynu USB adapter i lleihau’r llethwychdod I point out the old Goth pub that I vomited outside in 1999 Before realising to my horror that pending some very ambitious roadworks there’s no way my sick reached the pavement on the other side Like the story you’d heard me tell one hundred times “Does ddim garu heb amharu” meddai’r gwraig grac y dolmen Motioning to a time hole in the piss soaked multi-storey Ond penderfynes parhau ar yr esgusodion I wasgu allan y diwedd

about

"The debut four track 7” from Yfory feels like an instant jewel in the crown of modern punk. Sounding like a classic unknown gem from the golden era of post-punk 79-83, it has style, humour and demands, with vocals delivered mostly in the Welsh language.

When Yfory are locked in and in full repetition mode their stuttering and jagged instrumentation and half spoken-half sung vocals sound like Life Without Buildings mixed with Malaria, while their faster numbers recall Wire or Kleenex / Liliput with an edge. ‘Chwaer Pwy?’ (‘Whose Sister?) tells of a union struggle exposing fault lines of feminist hypocrisy, Ailgylchu’ is a song about taking out the recycling that name checks global oil, self-driving cars, and private islands, while longest track Baled Y Dolmen is a search for salvation at the motorway services and Wales’ many standing stones, paying homage to cult Welsh band Datblygu.

Made up of friends from four countries who’ve been active across international punk (in bands like Diät, Good Throb, Barcelona, Idiota Civilizato and many besides) this is a distinct project made in Berlin that will after a single listen become one of your new daily pleasures. Yfory means tomorrow."
