Our Take

DEFEATER's self-titled album, well, what can I say? It's like a rollercoaster ride through an emotional minefield of punk rock expression. This band has been around the block a few times, and it shows in their tight instrumentation and raw energy.

The opening track "The Worst of Fates" hits you like a ton of bricks, with blistering guitars and impassioned vocals that cut right to the core. From there, we're taken on a journey through themes of loss, redemption, and everything in between.

Tracks like "List & Heel" and "No Guilt" showcase DEFEATER's ability to balance intensity with melody, creating a sound that is both brutal and beautiful. And let's not forget about the stellar production on this album, which perfectly captures the band's live energy while still allowing every instrument to shine through.

But the real standout moment comes in the form of "Atheists in Foxholes," a haunting ballad that explores the concept of faith and doubt in a way that is both poignant and thought-provoking. It's a fitting closer to an album that is as unpredictable as it is captivating.

In conclusion, DEFEATER have delivered an album that is sure to please both die-hard fans and newcomers alike. So grab your leather jacket, crank up the volume, and let DEFEATER take you on a wild ride you won't soon forget.

About the artist

Defeater

Oh, DEFEATER, the brooding darlings of the hardcore scene. Hailing from Massachusetts, this five-piece band has been dishing out their brand of emotionally charged music for over a decade now. With their intense live performances and raw, introspective lyrics, DEFEATER have proven themselves to be a force to be reckoned with in the punk world. Formed in 2004, the band first gained attention with their debut album "Travels" in 2008. Since then, they have released a string of critically acclaimed albums, including "Empty Days & Sleepless Nights" and "Letters Home". DEFEATER's unique blend of melodic hardcore and post-hardcore elements has earned them a dedicated fanbase and a reputation as one of the most innovative bands in the scene. Lead vocalist Derek Archambault's haunting vocals and poignant lyrics are at the heart of DEFEATER's sound. His storytelling prowess shines through on tracks like "Bastards" and "Cowardice", painting vivid pictures of loss, redemption, and the human experience. The band's tight musicianship and dynamic songwriting add depth and complexity to their music, creating a sonic landscape that is both intense and cathartic. Despite their dark themes and heavy sound, DEFEATER also know how to have a good time. Their energetic live shows are a sight to behold, with the band members tearing up the stage and engaging with their audience in a way that is both playful and profound. With their latest album "Selfless" set to drop soon, DEFEATER are poised to continue their reign as one of punk's most compelling acts. Keep your eyes peeled and your earplugs handy, because DEFEATER are not to be missed.
