Mon Dyh was a blues rock band from West Berlin. Created in the environment of the Rock-gegen-Rechts movement in 1978, Mon Dyh played straightforward blues rock in English, contrary to the prevailing music of the New German Wave. The band performed mainly in clubs, youth centers, and at non-commercial or self-organized festivals. In 1980, the album Murderer was released, produced and published independently. The LP sold well despite the absence of support from an established label, leading Mon Dyh to release their second album, Confused Mind, just one year later — again on their own. The third and final LP, Am Galgen, appeared in 1983 on the small label Woolfe Records. This time the album was sung entirely in German. Financially, however, it became a failure. Shortly after its release, Mon Dyh disbanded, not only due to the limited success of Am Galgen, but also because of uncertainty about the band’s future musical direction and concerns about stagnation. In the early 1990s and again in 2002, all three albums were reissued on CD by Green Tree Records. Mon Dyh was also known in the GDR, particularly within the blues scene. The underground band Freygang covered several Mon Dyh songs, including “Murderer,” “Confused Mind,” and “Salvador.”
