DVTR – Né pour flâner

by Stephan Boissonneault

If you’re somewhat ingrained in the Montreal music scene, or I’d even go as far as to say the Eastern Canada music scene and don’t know who DVTR is yet, you seriously need to hop out from under the rock you’ve been hiding under. This Queb punk rock duo, featuring Demi Lune & Jean Divorce, cleaned up the GAMIQ Awards Gala winning Revelation of the Year, Punk Album/EP of the Year, and Animated Music Video of the Year, not to mention ending their crazy 2024 ride with a soldout 500 capacity show at the legendary venue Les Foufounes Électriques.

Their album, BONJOUR, has been all about the fuck around and find out ethos; attacking the Olympics, corrupt cops, the death industry, and soon the milk industry, and this has taken them all over the world; including Japan. Usually, DVTR songs are all about calling something out as bullshit, but this latest buzzing single “Né pour flâner,” (born to loiter) is more positive and about taking up space. DVTR loves to loiter so they wrote a punk song about it. So the DIY music video is all camcorder footage, following the band’s adventures on their recent tour in Asia. It’s a different spin for DVTR. Are they going to turn into more of a positive punk band and stop calling out injustices… probably not. But “Né pour flâner,” is a nice surprise.
