"new" band - the Defectives

the Defectives
Italy - '10?-now

I just found this band, thanks to my stupid friend, who quit doing his own blog (http://inforthe80s.blogspot.com) - after the downfall of free download websites - and made me compelled to make 2 other blogs besides this one (one for uk82 and one for 80s british oi - i barely update any of them and they have less info than this one. i do have a life besides just listening to music, typing ((poorly)) about it and buying it - between booking/attending shows, drinking, part time DJing on the radio, drinking, occasionally DJing shows/clubs, drinking, my girl & my dog, and the worst: work). It looks like they used to be a typical aggressive streetpunk band (unless thats another Defectives) but have had a magical 90's japanese pogo wand waved over them and now they sound and kinda look like Spiky Joys/ Discocks/Pogo Machine/etc. - scarf and everything - or Korean shit like Spiky Joys or the Couch. Or newer pogo punk worship liek te Chernobyl Babies, Oi!Driver, the Erections etc. You get the fuckin idea... check it out if that's your kinda shit. If you are new to this look for the Dick Spikie video on this blog.
