DEFECTS RELEASE LYRIC VIDEO OF MODERN ERROR
Full album Modern Error out on May 24, 2024 via Mascot Records
Following on from their exhilarating European Tour with Orbit Culture, fast-rising UK metallers Defects have revealed the lyric video to their brand new track, “Modern Error.” You can watch the video below ⬇️.
The song is taken from their profoundly personal debut album, Modern Error, which will be released on 24 May via Mascot Records.
“Our run with Orbit Culture has been amazing,” the band says. “They are like family now for sure. Great band and crew and it's been super chilled. The shows on this run have been packed full of energy and raw intensity. It's been overwhelming having people come up to us after buying merch and telling us that we are up there now with their favourite bands.”
The anthemic title track equally crushes and paints a poignant message as singer Tony Maue explains, “We started writing the single Modern Error back in 2019 and it came together quite quickly. I had written bits about the way the world was going and when I heard this track it fuelled me to carry on and see where it went. I think the song is a good word of warning to the people running the world and how it needs to change.”

Modern Error is breathtakingly raw with emotion. Conceptually, it is a deeply cathartic album that acts as a vessel for singer Tony Maue to organise his thoughts on the trauma of being taken into care at a young age. Threaded through the album are the experiences that Maue has been through, how the five members of the band are all connected and why, at this moment, right now, is the right time for this band to exist. For themselves as much as anyone else.

Modern Error hits with the heaviness and aggression of Lamb Of God and Machine Head, a Linkin Park-like sense of melody, and a touch of Bring Me The Horizon's fearlessness. For all its heavy subject matter, it burns with vitality, power and passion. Woven within is their outlook on the world.
