about

The Anti-DicKtators are a collaboration of likeminded musicians horrified at what’s going on in Ukraine at the moment, and wanting in their own small way to help contribute to raising awareness and money for a relief fund (details below).

They are producer Phil Meadley (The Gaslight Troubadours), vocalist/songwriter Yuriy Gurzhy (RotFront/Shtetl Superstars), fiddle player Jon Sevink (Levellers), bassist Tom Robinson (Tom Robinson Band/BBC Radio 6Music presenter), and vocalist Katya Tasheva (RotFront).

Yuriy is a Ukrainian who moved to Berlin at the age of 20. He’s a musician, DJ, producer and celebrated author who’s recently been keeping a war diary for German newspaper Der Tagesspiegel. He explains that the song lyrics are based around the story of the small handful of Ukrainian soldiers on Snake Island in the early days of the Russian invasion who responded to a Russian naval commander “Russian warship, go f**k yourself!” when they were told to surrender. It’s now become rallying cry for Ukrainians and the slogan has even been made into a Ukrainian postal service stamp to commemorate their bravery.

“We are shocked and hurt to see what's been happening in Ukraine,” he says. “And how brutally Russia wipes out its cities, towns and villages. Ukrainians fight back like superheroes but even if this unjust, cruel war will be over soon, it'll need every pound or dollar of what's been donated so far. So we join those who've been raising money and ask you to donate for The Ukraine Trust Chain (who are bringing aid and evacuations to Ukrainians in the active war zone) by purchasing a song that in three minutes teaches you the main sentence in Russian that you need to know at the moment.”

The track will be released on its own dedicated Bandcamp page anti-dicktators.bandcamp.com on Friday 25th March. All proceeds will go directly to the Ukrainian Trust Chain who have a network of volunteer teams providing urgent food, medical supplies and rides to safety in Ukraine. For more details visit www.ukrainetrustchain.org.

The very special artwork for this single is by Kyiv based illustrator Nataliia Shulga www.instagram.com/natshulga_il/

lyrics

LYRICS

A Russian monster has a plan to destroy the human race
A superhero’s on his way to send him to the outer space
And as long as you can’t meet him and spit him in the face
I suggest we use this tune to learn a simple phrase

Russian war ship, go f**k yourself!
русский военный корабль, иди на хуй!

Our song ain’t over yet, here comes another verse
It’s a meditation, a prayer and a curse
Very soon we’ll all be celebrating victory
But until that day please repeat after me

Russian war ship, go f**k yourself!
русский военный корабль, иди на хуй!

Why don’t you give me sweet sweet melody, give me that beat
And I’ll give you the sentence we all need to repeat
And if you’re planning to attend our next gig
I’ll teach you ukrainian for “Putin is a dick”

Russian war ship, go f**k yourself!
русский военный корабль, иди на хуй!

Lyrics: Y.Gurzhy

Idiomatic

Confused and amazed about the different styles and the overload of lyrics, after my first full album sitdown. Struggeling to find the cohesion, but it will do for now. After a few listens..cd in hand too, starting to like it a lot. Anywhere i can find full lyrics? This must be amoré..my new favorite..italodisco meets dep mod ervanduijvenbode

Lockdown

Gaz, having finally got this in the CD player, what an absolute stunner of an album, a glorious document of the hardest year in history, emotions, tears, mass singalongs, “The Old Normal”, one of my absolute key songs of last year and, topping them all, “Rule”, Gaz does full tilt screaming metal and it’s f’ing glorious!

Great album. Almost a blend of Old Style and New Style Gaz. Delighted to have seen him perform two of the tracks live at Glastonbury. His performance was better than ever, and the songs are right up there with his best. matsan66
