Review:
Soul to Squeeze - Is the perfect music for your very own roadmovie... A journey which may be bound for a new uncertain life, for a trip down memory lane, or to the centre of the self likewise. One laughing , one crying eye - This gives you a taste of the bittersweet melancholy which would play an important role in Californication.
"Pleasure spiked with pain" at its finest, yet at the same time full of inner strength and calmness.
Fela's Cock -
A beautiful flowing, running instrumental piece
Sikamikaniko-
Red Hot Chilied Punk
Search and Destroy -
A most apt interpretation of Iggy's outcry from the early days.

DYSFUNCTIONAL BY CHOICE were founded in Paris 1996. Initially influenced by bands like Deftones, Faith No More, Rage Against The Machine, Nirvana, Tool, or Refused, they soon left these behind to create their very own sound which defies being tied down to cultural or musical genres. As their singer, Chouch, puts it: “We are passionate about music, not fashion trends or categories. We focus on putting all our heart and energy into the sound, and into striking a chord with the audience, no matter who they are and where they come from. When it comes to our music, frontiers or limitations loose all meaning.” Instead, this classically lined up band is characterised best by driving rhythmic beats, the whiplash effect of their guitars and wild, extrovert live shows.
During the following 3 years DBC played more than 35 gigs in and around Paris - a city normally renowned for being difficult breaking ground for hardcore music. Moreover they have become a regular feature on the set-lists of various independent radio stations and concert halls all over France. In 1999 DBC proved their worth by winning a contest competing against a host of renowned funk and reggae bands, and was unanimously voted No1 by a panel of music editors from all of the major French radio stations. This secured them the release of their first CD (Self titled), featuring 4 tracks illustrating the spellbinding intensity of their unique sound. The release of this CD, which is sold in all FNAC outlets and other large record stores, gained them support act status for MCM /MTV chart successes such as: Aston Villa; Watcha and Oversoul. This year DBC will embark on a European Tour of their own.

Their second album "BETA" has just been released and is available by mail order from Fuxia, Chouch or Vinz
