DEFAULT -- "Faith or Fraud" demo

DEFAULT is a band from Nottingham, England, with Lloyd on vocals, Tom on bass, Col on guitars, and Scott on drums.

This is a very good demo. First off, the singing is great -- the sing-along choruses are some of the best that I've heard. Then, the music absolutely blows me away. Pure melodious hardcore which seems very refined. After your first listen, you'll be singing their songs for hours later. I guarantee it! Watch for their EP out soon. I hope that it will be half as hot as this demo! Write to Lloyd, 45 Nottingham Rd., New Basford, Nottingham, England NG7 7AD. [MICKEY]
