GENRE:Hard Rock

The Defiants have announced their return with a new album, theirthird overall, “Drive”! Formedby Paul Laine, Bruno Ravel, and Rob Marcello, who are all current or former membersofpopular hard rockersDanger Danger, The Defiants latest opus is yet another impeccable slice of melodic hard rock.

Best known for being the D2 vocalist on four studio albums over the course of 12 years, Paul Laine came back to work with his former bandmates Bruno Ravel and Rob Marcello, who are the other two pillars of The DEFIANTS, for the bands self-titled debut album in 2015. The guys reunited at the suggestion of Frontiers’ President& Head of A&R, Serafino Perugino, who really wanted these current and former Danger Danger members to offer fans of that band some new music. The resulting album was pleasing not only to the D2 fans, but also to ALL the fans out there who are into the classic sound of the era from which D2 emerged.

The Defiants debut album was greeted with a great acclaim as a glorious return to the in your face melodic hard rock that enraptured millions of fans back in the ’80s and ’90s and is currently enjoying a renaissance here in the 21st century, so a follow-up album was a no-brainer.That secondalbum, Zokusho, a Japanese word meaning “the sequel or “the next chapter,was released to critical acclaim in 2019. As a special treat on that album,Danger Dangerdrummer Steve Westwas a special guest on drums. Needless to say,”Zokusho”hadall the ingredients to thrillbothD2 and The Defiants fans. A BIG melodic rock album with big choruses, hooks and soaring guitars and vocals.

Now, after another four year wait between albums, The Defiants return with “Drive”, perhaps their greatest musical achievement…so far.
