DEFENDER - Another New Demo Track Available For Streaming
March 24, 2011, 13 years ago
DEFENDER, the Los Angeles-based heavy metal band featuring founding CELLADOR members Bill Hudson (guitar) and Mikey Gremio (vocals) alongside ZODIAC MINDWARP/ex-REVOLUTION RENAISSANCE drummer Bruno Agra, has just made another track, entitled 'WWIII', available for streaming.
Hudson states:
"This song is very meaningful to me. It was my first ever attempt at lyrics, although I couldn't have done it without partnering up with Mikey (Gremio, vocals). I started writing this after a talki with a friend who was about to go be deployed to Iraq. It's pretty intense. I am an absolute supporter of the troops. I am also very much against the war. I'd much rather NOT have troops deployed… but since they're there, they have my full support and I tried to show that with this song!"The band previously posted the song 'Blackened Heart' for streaming. Check it out below:
The band also uploaded another track, entitled 'Out Of Time'. The track can be streamed from the band's Official Facebook page here.
Drawing influences from classics like IRON MAIDEN, PANTERA, HELLOWEEN, SKID ROW and METALLICA all the way to the modern hard rock made by SHINEDOWN, AVENGED SEVENFOLD and THREE DAYS GRACE, as well as the aggressiveness of SLAYER, FEAR FACTORY and MESHUGGAH, Defender intends to create catchy songs with great, hooky melodies, intricate and technical guitar work and heavy, and precise riffing. Lyrically, they touch both real and fictional subjects, such as a futuristic third world war or the need to live here and now before it's too late.
Defender is currently in pre-production for its debut album and will release an EP entitled WWIII this year.
Defender is:
Mikey Gremio: lead vocals
Bill Hudson: lead, rhythm guitars, vocals
Bruno Angra: drums, vocals
John Killall: lead and rhythm guitars, vocals
