Katastroof was founded in the fall of 1977. Four young guys brainstormed to make an one-time folk and small-art show but, thanks to fate, they sticked together and called themselves Katastroof. The obscure performances followed each other, one by one. In those days they performed Irish traditionals and folk songs while drinking and partying in underground Antwerp.
Quickly after that, they wrote lots of songs, inspired by the pub life, sexual sins and the less good sides of the politicians and the priests.
The real breakthrough came when they signed to a label and they recorded their first LP 'Stront Aan De Knikker'. Of course, it was never played on one of the radio stations, but they did become kind of notorious Flemings.
From Antwerp, they got to each youth movement and other places, inspiring the youth and shocking parents.
At the end of past century, Jimmeke left the band, but Katastroof still continued with their obscure songs and great performances.
In 2002 multi-instrumentalist Stef Bef joined the band. New blood that made sure the band will survive the coming decennia. End 2005, Rob Snob decided to trade the Katastroof life for an easier one, and left the band.
Katastroof is from then on a trio with Zjuul, Jos and Stef and sounds way better than ever before. After about twenty albums, they stay the most downloaded Belgium band persevering in the anger.

Katastroof Lyrics

Ist für uns ein gross plezier
Hose ab und stiefeln an
Prot! und es ist gedan
Holderi joefi joefi di ha ha ha
Holdera joefi joefi falderaldera
Holderi joefi joefi di ha ha ha
Saurkraut mit wurst und ei
Was ist tas für eine schweinerei
Boemsen wir mit Fritz und Hans
Donnerwetter an mein schwanz
Holderi joefi joefi di ha ha ha
Holdera joefi joefi falderaldera
Holderi joefi joefi di ha ha ha
Holdera pipi kaka
Apfelstrudel mit gelei
Das ist gut jegen die shijsserij
Pumpernikkel mit azijn
Komm lass uns fröhlich sein
Holderi joefi joefi di ha ha ha
Holdera joefi joefi falderaldera
Holderi joefi joefi di ha ha ha
Holdera pipi kaka
Wen wir jetzt zusammen sein
Pluk ich deine blümelein
Heite geht es nicht so gut
Mein kapotchen ist kaput
Holderi joefi joefi di ha ha ha
Holdera joefi joefi falderaldera
Holderi joefi joefi di ha ha ha
Holdera pipi kaka
Meine kleine fögelein
Macht sein Arbeid immer fein
Liebe schats auf wiedersehn
Ich gehe boemsen mit Lili Marleen
Holderi joefi joefi di ha ha ha
Holdera joefi joefi falderaldera
Holderi joefi joefi di ha ha ha
Holdera pipi kaka
The lyrics to Katastroof's song 't Deuts lieke are in Dutch and contain multiple references to bodily functions and lewd actions. The song starts with the band members declaring their enjoyment in urinating without toilet paper, and even find pleasure in it. They then proceed to talk about consuming sauerkraut with sausage and eggs, and finding pleasure in sexual acts with Fritz and Hans. They also mention the consumption of apple strudel with jelly and pumpernickel with vinegar, and how it makes them happy. Later in the song, they engage in sexual acts with "Lili Marleen" and end the song with a goodbye.
The song can be interpreted as a crude and vulgar celebration of hedonism and baser instincts. The refrain "Holderi joefi joefi di ha ha ha, Holdera joefi joefi falderaldera, Holderi joefi joefi di ha ha ha, Holdera pipi kaka" is repeated throughout the song and serves as a catchy, albeit crass, chorus for the song.
Overall, the lyrics to 't Deuts lieke are intentionally provocative and meant to shock listeners with their graphic and obscene language. The song is not for the faint of heart and requires a strong stomach and a tolerance for vulgarity.
