Our Take

Picture this: a band that's so obscure, they make the hipsters look mainstream. Self Defense Family's latest album "Heaven Is Earth" is like a kaleidoscope of sounds, blending post-punk with hardcore in a way that only they can pull off.

From the opening track "In My Defens I Am Offend," you're catapulted into a whirlwind of intense riffs and poetic lyrics that make you question everything you thought you knew about music. It's like they took the rulebook of traditional songwriting and threw it out the window, opting instead for a bold and experimental approach.

Tracks like "Talia" and "Ditko" showcase the band's ability to create an atmosphere that's both haunting and exhilarating. The haunting vocals of lead singer Patrick Kindlon combined with the intricate guitar work of Andrew Duggan create a sonic landscape that's as unpredictable as it is captivating.

But it's not all doom and gloom. "Prison Ring" injects a sense of urgency and energy into the mix, with its infectious chorus and driving beat. It's a track that demands to be played at full volume, much to the dismay of your neighbours.

In a world where conformity reigns supreme, Self Defense Family are a breath of fresh air. "Heaven Is Earth" is a testament to their uncompromising vision and refusal to play by the rules. So sit back, relax, and let the music wash over you. Who knows, you might just find yourself in musical nirvana.

About the artist

Self Defense Family

Self Defense Family, the enigmatic and ever-evolving collective hailing from Albany, New York, are not your average run-of-the-mill band. With a discography spanning over two decades and more lineup changes than a celebrity relationship, this group has remained a constant presence in the underground music scene. Led by the enigmatic frontman Patrick Kindlon, Self Defense Family have solidified their reputation as boundary-pushers in the world of punk music. Their sound defies categorisation, blending elements of post-hardcore, indie rock, and spoken word poetry to create a unique sonic landscape that demands attention. Their latest album "The Supremacy of Pure Artistic Feeling" is a testament to their experimental ethos, with tracks that meander and twist, taking listeners on a journey through the inner workings of Kindlon's mind. From the cacophonous guitar riffs of "Wizard of Loneliness" to the haunting spoken word passages of "The Circumstance of Dawn", this album is a testament to their willingness to take risks and defy expectations. Self Defense Family may not be everyone's cup of tea, but for those willing to delve into the depths of their music, there are rewards aplenty. So, buckle up, dear readers, and prepare to be taken on a wild ride through the musical landscape that is Self Defense Family. Love them or hate them, one thing is for sure - they will leave a lasting impression on your ears and your soul.
