Defects - Broken Bloodlines (Official Music Video)

UK metallers Defects have announced their October - November UK ‘The Bloodline’ Tour. The support will come from Profiler and Knife Bride.  Tickets are available from HERE.
 
The tour will begin on 19 October in Glasgow (Classic Grand) and call through Newcastle (The Cluny), Manchester (Rebellion), Leeds (Key Club), London (O2 Islington Academy 2), Bristol (Exchange). Oxford (Jericho Tavern) and finishes on 7 November in Birmingham (Flapper).
 
Talking about the tour, singer Tony Maue says; “We can’t wait to get back on the road after our amazing festival run this year, and we can’t wait to carry the momentum into the winter. We’ll be taking the amazing Profiler and Knife Bride with us to channel the incredible up and coming British metal today! We’ll see you in the pit.”

Defects released their debut album in May and have spent the summer with blistering sets on the festival circuit, playing at Download (UK) and Graspop (Belgium) as well as tours with Of Mice and Men and Orbit Culture this year. They have also played with the likes of Bullet for My Valentine, Funeral for a Friend and In Flames. 

Modern Error is breathtakingly raw with emotion. Conceptually, it is a deeply cathartic album that acts as a vessel for singer Tony Maue to organise his thoughts on the trauma of being taken into care at a young age. Threaded through the album are Maue's experiences, how the five members of the band are all connected, and why, at this moment, right now, is the right time for this band to exist. For themselves as much as anyone else.

From the album, they released the singles, Echo Chamber which offers closure to Maue,  Modern Error paints a poignant message about the path the world is heading down and Lockdown captures mental challenges. The bulldozing Broken Bloodlines announced their signing to Mascot records, which followed  Dream Awake, Scapegoat and End of Days.

All five members have their stories - Tony Maue (Vocals), Luke Genders (Guitar), James Threadwell (Guitar), David Silver (Bass) and Harry Jennings (Drums) - and the album hits 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. For all its heavy subject matter, it burns with vitality, power, passion and woven within is their outlook on the world.

 "We've always been told to strive for perfection, but I don't think anyone can be perfect," Maue considers. "We are all defects in a way, but that makes us all unique."
