About Us

___________________________ __


DeFeX are a 4-student band from Naas, formed sometime in November 2006

Came about by two contrasting rival bands merging together to create some sort of super band that blow your brains with mind blowing funkadelic riffs that give you a tingle while you listen.

The Band:

S.O.B. - Lead Guitar
This guy's been playing guitar for a good few years now.. His love for John Frusciante is obvious. He has a very diverse style, in a way that he can play in mellow and soothing moods, and weird, yet funky and sensational, riffs

Ross - Lead Vocals/Rhythm Guitar
This guy's been playing a few years now and his talents could not be ignored. He just recently jumped into being the frontman, thus finding a new-found passion. He speaks down into the microphone in a tenor voice. His capability of improvisation on his rythemic guitar is also inspired by chilies. He's the type of guy who could sit on a crowded city street, jam away all day and not give two shits about the people around him,and probaly earn a hefty sum.

Cormac - Bass/Backing Vocals
bass is his new religion..this is all he needs to get by in life. He first played guitar in a band with SOB, constantly changing drummers and bassists. It was from this that Cormac decided to take up the role of bass and joined forces with Ross. He plays an aria Integra,tanglewood which he slaps, plucks and plays with, oblivious to the frequent blisters and bubbles popping up on his hands. His style is an in-your-face, fast pace bass. His playing is complex, not just backround beat. Inspired by RAGE and chilies and very much like Flea.

Colmo - Drummer
"He will hit you with his rhythm stick!" You could write a book on his drumming skills and unique riffs. His technique has given the band a lot more than just good beat and sound, but steady and skillful percussion.
where the hell has he been all this time.

Influences

combination of:
Red Hot Chili Peppers
Arctic Monkeys
Rage Against The Machine
that sort of stuff..lots and lots of music

Making of cotton brandy!

1 month ago

well where to start with this one.this song was orignally made as a jam one day messin around with differant riffs when jammin.we never really had a structure for it and always ended up playin it differantly every time but the verse and chorus had basically stayed the same.so from there we decided we would write lyrics completely takin the micky from mason!(american friend of ours) listen to the lyrics..so now that we had a verse and chorus we just winged the rest.the outro..jaysus that was dodgey..even the day we recorded we still didnt know how the song went so we decided...fuck it lets jam it out.which is what we did and hay presto we got an outro for the CD.we still dont know to this day how or what we played.if u asked us to play cotton brandy live i guarrentee it will not be the same as on the recordin..unless we learnt it of course.so there ya have it.a band that dont know how to play their own song.thats a first
