Defanged: Positivity Corner cassette
Our take: 5-track cassette from this hardcore band out of Dallas, Texas. Defanged’s style is raw, fast, and offers a heaping helping of snot, particularly in the vocals. They remind me of Sorry State’s own Gimmick, though snotty and fast 80s bands like Sick Pleasure, early Government Issue, and Anti serve as solid reference points as well. The sound is raw, blown-out, and kind of thin, like the 4-track hardcore released on labels like Lumpy Records, though clearer than some stuff their fellow Texan rippers Nosferatu have put into the world. If you like your hardcore raw, passionate, and youthful, this is one to check out.
