Our Take

Defeater's self-titled album is an absolute rollercoaster of emotions, taking listeners on a wild ride through heartache, betrayal, and redemption. The Boston-based hardcore band has been serving up gritty, raw tracks since their inception in 2004, and this latest offering does not disappoint.

From the haunting opening track, "The Worst of Fates," to the blistering intensity of "List & Heel," Defeater show no sign of slowing down. Frontman Derek Archambault's raw, impassioned vocals cut through the chaos, painting a vivid picture of a world torn apart by violence and despair.

The band's ability to seamlessly blend hardcore punk with post-hardcore elements sets them apart from their peers, creating a sound that is both ferocious and melodic. Tracks like "Night Wide Eyes" and "Mercy Bound" showcase Defeater's talent for crafting dynamic, emotionally-charged songs that stay with you long after the music stops.

But what truly sets Defeater apart is their storytelling prowess. Each song on the album feels like a chapter in a larger narrative, weaving together themes of loss, regret, and ultimately, hope. It's a cathartic experience that leaves you feeling both drained and exhilarated.

Overall, Defeater's self-titled album is a powerful, gripping listen that solidifies their place as one of the most exciting bands in the hardcore scene. Don't sleep on this one – it's a must-listen for fans of raw, unrelenting music that hits you right in the gut.
