Def FX

VENUE:

Badlands Bar

DATE:

17 Dec 2023

Integrating techno, rap and heavy rock without a drum kit in sight four-piece Def FX embarked on a journey of hip swinging, head banging, mosh jumping classic vibrations that will never have a used buy-date.

This reformation tour has also provided the catalyst for a fifth album, a compilation, “Collect Vol 1” to be launched. Frantic post gig sales verified there is still a demand for this band’s post-futuristic sounds. Thus demonstrating there is never an expiry date for beautiful and ageless spirits. No doubt Def FX and I crossed paths again at various festivals mid-nineties but those were the mind-blowing daze. Back into the reality of a top notch show but paradoxically tears were surfaced as this will be (my) last gig at the soon-to-be-closed Iconic Badlands bar. The spirited gathering of live music fans brought Def FX back on for the final encore of ‘Lightspeed’ Raging against the machine, what a way to conclude live music gatherings with this dynamic and iconic band. Set List: ‘Feels Good’, ‘Spacetime’, ‘Under TB’, ‘Déjà Vu’, ‘Masses’, ‘No Time FNW’, ‘Mask’, ‘Kill TRG, ‘We Are Now’, ‘Spell On You’, ‘Headfuck’, ‘Psychoactive’, ‘Surfers’, ‘Lightspped’ Band are:- Fiona Horne (vocals/movements) Thebat Fangr (bass) (Martyn Basha?)
