  • Bruised And Satisfied

    AFROLP029-AFROCD029

    Artist: The Defectors

    Label: Bad Afro Records

    The Defectors pull rigor mortified riffs and horror hooks from outta the darkest depths of Satan’s belly in order to shake up your listening space and trash your hi-fi. Bruised and Satisfied is the 4th The Defectors album and their bitching brew of slamming farfisa drenched graveyard garage punk never sounded meaner or better for that matter.

    Bruised and Satisfied is recorded in The Defectors own studio Cairo Hi-Fi in their hometown Aarhus. In the fall of 2006 the renowned Danish producer Carsten Heller set up his special microphones and recorded what became a very different rock album. Bruised and Satisfied sounds wonderfully fuzzy, loud and trashy and at the same time the sound is HUGE and detailed.

    Bruised and Satisfied is divided into two parts. Side A is the horror part as only The Defectors could perform it. Six tales from beyond taking place in an universe populated by dancing ghouls, creepy crawls and bloodsucking freaks resurrected from the dead. Side B is pure fuzzy garage punk played with nerve wrecking intensity. Of course, this works best on the main format vinyl. On CD the parts are linked by little interludes so the listener will get the picture anyway. Excellent music for driving by the way. Originally released on LPand CD.

  • Turn Me On!

    AFROLP024-AFROCD024

    Artist: The Defectors

    Label: Bad Afro Records

    The Danish music scene is in better shape than ever and The Defectors from Aarhus is Bad Afros best bet for a Danish garage rock band with focus on good melodies covered in loads of fuzz guitar. The Defectors started in late 1997 and have two albums out on ESP-Recordings. Their new 3rd album was recorded at the Delta Lab studio in Copenhagen with Thomas Troelsen at the helm.

    Turn Me On! is a bold attempt at expanding the limits of an often conservative genre and The Defectors takes some chances. From the creepy "Sleepwalking" that sounds like a psychotic nightmare to The Defectors very own definition of dub with a garage twist in the head-boppin' "The Zoom-Out". Not forgetting garage pop in "It's Gonna Take Some Time" that features Lorenzo from Baby Woodrose on backing vocals. Originally released on LP and CD.
