January 8, 2012, 12 years ago
Oakland-based thrashers DEFIANCE have called it quits. The band's statement reads as follows:
"I imagine it won't be a surprise to anyone who might read this that Defiance is no longer a band. After coming to the realization that the music industry was falling apart, and without the internal bond that Defiance had in back in their heydays, it was decided (by Jim Adams) to shut down all activities to avoid being completely financially wiped out.Jim has since moved on and joined SEVERED FIFTH and will be releasing a full length album in February titled Liberate."
The final line-up of Defiance featured:
Jim Adams - guitars
Shawn Bozarth - guitars
Keven Albert - vocals
Mike Kaufmann - bass
Burton Ortega - drums
