DEFECTS (THE)

Hailing from Belfast, Northern Ireland, The Defects caused quite a stir on the Punk scene in the early 80’s. Their one and only LP “Defective Breakdown” hit the Indie Chart Top Ten and they also scored big with the “Survival” and “Suspicious Minds” 45’s. Vocalist Buck was a bit of a Punkette’s pin up and they toured the UK as support to the Anti Nowhere League on their infamous “So What” jaunt as well as undertaking a whole host of dates with label mates The Meteors. There’s a great story about them, the Business, Rick Wakeman and a strategically placed turd but we’ll keep that for another day!
