Codefendants’ “Def Cons” that a wonderful mash-up of The Transplants and more traditional ska-punk. The intense bass line that comes forth at points during this single acts as a solid counterpoint for the gritty vocals that are front-and-center. The band continues to shift and modify their sonic assault throughout the entirety of this song; the brooding intensity that demarcates Def Cons’ second half will keep listeners firmly on the edges of their seats. The cut will remain fresh through multiple plays as Codefendants mave incorporate so many distinct layers; each subsequent spin will have listeners find something new.
