Started in Oakland, California in 2010, Diesel Dudes are a rambunctious and sweaty duo that melds European EBM influences with the intensity of hardcore punk, wrapped up in a sinewy bow of absurdist performance art. Described by living legend John Waters as “big, strong and totally wrong” and by a bemused Swedish promoter as “the drunkest band I’ve ever seen”- they’ve consistently whipped audiences around the world into participation and perspiration in their infamous group push-up rituals in the pit for over a decade. Through hundreds of performances all over the world they’ve peddled their brutal songs about muscles, vehicles and the failures of father and must be witnessed in the flesh (however porcine) to be believed.
