About Me


Listen to "Isle of Marauder" in its entirety and order here!
"This record is pure chaos in the best possible way. It's like getting dirty and feeling so right. Diesto drop the most righteous kind of dirty noise-rock that you'd think you went to heaven and had a mud fight with God." –Jon Robertson, Slug Magazine
"Guitarists Mark Bassett and Chris Dunn (who also share vocal duties) bring an oddly creative sense of riff crafting to the release with their use of serpentine anti-chords that keep Diesto's sound outside the stoner doom box... Overall, Isle of Marauder is the type of album written by those who never cared to learn the rules." ~Ryan Ogle |Outburn Magazine|
"This record rules, plain and simple. It conveys honest, moving brutality in a way that all fans of noise/rock and doom should be able to get into. It melds influences that include Eyehategod, Godflesh, Dazzling Killmen, Unsane, Player’s Club, El Buzzard, Barkmarket, Jesus Lizard and many more. This is a damn fine record and shows that this band is stronger than ever and ready to start kicking ass far and wide. Highly recommended!" - Jay Snyder, Hellridemusic.com
"The Diesto is voluminous, communication and let us not lifting stones with their swords. We are dirty and fragrant. It is not doom and carry a huge cross from each of them... It is technical without having to attend konservatoria are louts and take your daughters with your blessings. The riff heard in the Concert Hall, are heavy and let us weigh one hundred pounds and the four together. The solos are heavy rock and let us not wearing jean bells. It is psychedelikoi without listening to the Lsd. In survival courses teach you the perfect suicide. Who knows? Can you have them on the island." - George Zarkadoulas, courtesy of Google Translator
