DEF-CON ONE at Download festival

British metallers DEF-CON-ONE have released a free to download track, a cover of the SEX PISTOLS classic “Anarchy in the UK”. There is also a video available for the track, watch below. All the footage was filmed at this year’s Download festival where DEF-CON-ONE headlined the Broadie takeover stage.

Commented Antton Lant, drummer of DEF-CON-ONE:
“We were just messing about one day at rehearsals when me and Steve started jamming out the track, then Davey and Johnny joined in and it was sounding great. We jammed thru it a few times then we decided to put it in our live set as a last track. The crowds went abolutly crazy for it. Quite a few people suggested we should record it and release it.

After our performance at this year’s Download festival where we filled the tent, 7,000 crazy metal heads were screaming along to the track, we got hold of some footage from the gig so we’ve put the footage to the track”.

DEF-CON-ONE are currently working on album number three, which is due out early next year.

BEERMAGEDDON 2016 Festival, set to take place 26-28 August 2016, has announced the headliners to the 5th edition:

To celebrate the milestone of holding our 5th festival in 2016 here at Beermageddon we felt it was important to not only bring you the best new metal talent but also remember those bands who played such an integral part in our success, as those were the bands who cemented Beermageddon as Britain’s premier underground metal festival, and who better to take our Saturday night headline slot than the band who closed the very first Beermageddon back in 2012…

SATURDAY NIGHT HEADLINERS:

Having closed the very first Beermageddon back in 2012 we knew we had to welcome back… DEF CON ONE! They provide an unrivaled live show of pure energy and aggresssion and a musical style that ranges from pure heavy metal to punk and hard rock influences. This results in pure face ripping, neck snapping metal perfection! In 2012 DEF CON ONE laid waste to the stage in Derbyshire and will take no prisoners as they launch an assault on Bromsgrove at Beermageddon 2016!!!!!!!

SUNDAY NIGHT HEADLINERS:

The band that closed Bermageddon in 2013 make a triumphant return to the stage in 2016 as we welcome back ANIHILATED. And the band have a massive treat for all you Geddonites as they promise an exclusive UK live set including the only UK performance at a festival playing the entirety of “Path to Destruction Reborn”. Anihilated cemented their status as firm festival favourites in 2013, a performance many of us are still recovering from and when these thrashers return in 2016 there shall be no mercy, brace yourselves Beermageddon, brace yourselves!

MAKING THEIR BEERMAGEDDON DEBUT:

Providing a technical, progresssive groove metal we welcome into the Beermageddon fold… CAMBION. A band who have been making a very big name for themselves over the past few years having toured across Europe and played some of the big festivals their reputation as one of the biggest upcoming names in metal is well deserved…. Cambion are tight, technical, and groovy, combining many aspects of modern metal into their own unique expression of melody, and they bring all of this and more to Beermageddon 2016!!!!!!!

DEF CON ONE To Release Live CD

DefConOne-2015

British metal band DEF CON ONE will be releasing a live bootleg style cd in November, the idea came about after fans kept asking for a live cd / dvd from the band.

The songs are taken from their headline slots at Beermageddon festival in 2012 and the Hordes of Belial festival in 2014, the songs have been mixed and mastered with all the atmosphere “warts n all” being captured right there on the disc.

The disc is going to be a limited edition digi pack only available from concerts or via the bands web site, these tracks won’t be up on you-tube or spotify etc.

Currently working on new material, DEF CON ONE will be active on the live front throughout the rest of the year as they play new venues and return to old favourites. More shows are being added so check the band’s website, here, for all the latest news. Shows so far include:

DEF CON ONE have been confirmed for Hammerfest 2016.

If you haven’t seen DEF CON ONE yet, here is what Zero Tolerance magazine had to say about them:

“… the bruising metal assault that the band unleash in The Garage tonight. The Geordies tear through their set, playing with total conviction and clearly enjoying every moment of their time onstage. Ex-Venom man Antton Lant hits his kit so fucking hard, and the weight of the thuggish riffs is crushing. ‘Steeped in Pain’, ‘Soul Possessed’ ‘War Face’ … every track is 100% convincing. No fucking about – just head-caving, skull-crushing metal. Very impressive.”
