Here is the 1991 demo of DEFCON as requested, ripped from a CD-R copy. It was originally
ripped from the tape by sonicbludgeon if I remember it correctly. Nice power metal w/prog
elements and great vocals. To bad no info at all on the line-up.

Btw this is the line-uo (thanks to George for the info):

Randy Blackwell - Guitar
Kyle Anderson - Guitar
Mark Louis - Bass
Marc Brattin Drums

Great Demo. Sounds like a mixture between LETHAL and GARGOYLE.
Thanks a lot

Wow glad to see a metal veteran as you here George! welcome!
Yeah what is it not to like about the demo? it's just get better and better after every listen.
Perfect US prog metal! :)

btw, did you record any other demos? any unreleased recordings in the vaults of yours?

[MUSICMIN]

I have some stuff with other incarnations of DEFCON and prior to that. I am working on getting some of it over into the digital domain. Slow but steady. I am an old headbanger these days, plus I have had to work a real job for quite awhile now so these things take time. I will keep you posted on how it goes. Thanks again to you my young metal brother!

really great US power metal up with vocals reminiscent of J. Mallicoat (Lethal) it's a real shame they didn't put out an LP but it was already '91 and the record companies didn't care about this brand of metal. Thanks Strap and of course George for this piece of high quality heavy metal

Hi SLAM! glad to see such nice words about DEFCON - they deserve it.
So what are you/they up to today? Geoff said something about digitalizing old songs - will there be a CD release of it maybe?

Your "avatar" seem to give a hint of something interesting going on
