Reunited Oakland, California thrashers DEFIANCE have issued the following update:
"The new DEFIANCE album titled 'The Prophecy' has been completed! The mixing and mastering of the first new music from DEFIANCE in over 15 years was completed a few weeks ago and has been sent to Candlelight Records for pressing.
"DEFIANCE is working now with Travis Smith (OPETH, NEVERMORE) to complete the artwork and CD booklet. The album does not as of yet have a release date."
DEFIANCE's fourth album, "The Prophecy", was recorded at Trident Studios and Greendot Studios in East Bay, California.
Anew song, entitled "The Voice", is available for streaming on the band's MySpace page.
Along with the new album, DEFIANCE is also working on putting together a DVD, tentatively titled "Decade(s) of Defiance", that will chronicle the band's entire career from 1985 to the present.
Part of the so-called "second wave" of Bay Area thrash (which also included the likes of FORBIDDEN, VIO-LENCE, DEATH ANGEL, and TESTAMENT), DEFIANCE officially disbanded in 1993 after the departure of vocalist Steev Esquivel (who would go on to form SKINLAB, and later RE:IGNITION), while the remaining members, with the addition of vocalist Dave Godfrey White (HEATHEN), formed INNER THRESHOLD, which would also eventually disband.
In 2005, rumors of a reformed DEFIANCE sent waves of interest through the burgeoning thrash metal community until it was finally confirmed that the band had in fact reunited and were at work on their first new material in over a decade.
Metal Mind Productions released "Insomnia", a three-CD digipack containing remastered versions of the following DEFIANCE albums: 1989's "Product of Society", 1990's "Void Terra Firma", and 1992's "Beyond Recognition". This special collector's edition includes classic material from Roadrunner Records' archives, digitally remastered using 24-bit technology and released on golden discs. The three-CD digipack edition is limited to a hand-numbered 2,000 copies and contains a 28-page booklet with lyrics to all songs, full story of the band, and over 20 bonus tracks taken from the band's archives.
