Defects aren’t here to mess around or waste time. On their storming, forthcoming debut album, Modern Error, they are the sound of a band energized by the thrill of running headlong toward their goal. “Our whole idea with this is: if we’re going to do this, then we’re going to f**king do it,” says drummer Harry Jennings. “Just really go for it, leave no stone unturned, and just headbutt into it, man. We’re taking no prisoners.” Modern Error is, indeed, a record that smashes. With the heaviness and aggression of Lamb Of God and Machine Head, a Linkin Park-like sense of melody, and a touch of Bring Me The Horizon’s fearlessness in bringing in electronic elements and whatever else is needed to make a song truly explode, it’s an album that explodes with heavy energy, crafted by experts.
