*40 copies limited edition* Pushing the boundaries of industrial and power electronics, Defective returns with their electrifying new full-length album, RID: Regimented Inmate Discipline. This highly anticipated release delivers a blistering sonic assault, combining raw aggression with incisive social commentary, marking a defining moment in the band’s evolution.
RID: Regimented Inmate Discipline is a conceptual journey into the rigid systems that constrain individuality and human freedom. Drawing inspiration from dystopian realities and institutionalized oppression, the tracks fuse relentless guitars, abrasive electronics, and militant rhythms, creating an atmosphere both intense and thought-provoking.
"Our goal was to capture that feeling of being trapped—physically or mentally—and translate it into music that both challenges and energizes," explains Edward Giles, Defective’s lead vocalist and primary songwriter. "This record is about fighting back against the invisible cages society builds around us.”
