Science of Defiance Science of Defiance
"War Pigs" meets Metallica meets nasty battle rhymes like you dream of...and then wake up sweating from. You'll nod your head, you'll pump your fist, you'll wake up in a gutter with mysterious bruises and swear to give up emceeing forever.

Time is Nigh Time is Nigh
Call Me Sir Call Me Sir

Sketches of Pain Sketches of Pain
An atmospheric beat which references tons of horror-movie soundtracks...and an MC who, um, references tons of horror movies, Misfits songs, Roman emperors, Bunnicula, and the bop-shoo-bop-shoo-bop.

Science of Defiance (Itsu Demo mix) Science of Defiance (Itsu Demo mix)
