Defeater - Abandoned - COMPACT DISCS [CD]

Massachusetts hardcore band Defeater's new self-titled album serves as their fifth full-length overall and first in four years. Lead single, InchMothers' SonsInch features blistering guitars that take the song into something chaotic and beautiful. Defeater was produced with Will Yip (Quicksand, La Dispute, Blacklisted, Lauryn Hill) whose enthusiasm and talent pushed the songs to their fullest potential. Defeater showcases the band at their most devastating and sonically arresting to date. It is as pummeling as it is atmospheric. Album Tracks 1. The Worst of Fates 2. List & Heel 3.

A band known for their captivating and comprehensive storytelling just as much as their elaborate and complex music, Massachusetts' Defeater releases their third full-length album, Letters Home. These 10 new tracks are heavy and haunting, while lyrically poignant and continuing the story of a working class family living in post-WWII America. Letters Home revolves around the father of two brothers that listeners were introduced to in two of Defeater's prior releases (Travels and most recently Empty Days & Sleepless Nights), giving a background to the character and seeing some of the events from those past albums through his eyes. Letters Home is legitimately Defeater's heaviest body of music thus far - featuring powerfully intricate guitar instrumentation, colossal-sounding drums, and vocalist Derek Archambault's voice sounding more ferocious than ever before. Album Tracks 1. Bastards? 2. No Shame? 3. Hopeless Again? 4. Blood in My Veins? 5. No Relief 6. No Faith? 7. Dead Set? 8. No Savior? 9. Rabbit Foot? 10. Bled Out
