Best when the volume Knob is turned up to ear-bleeding levels, Kill City defectors mish-mash of body-shaking rhythms, killer-synths and No days off attitude is sending rabid kids nuts round your way. Hailing from Kildare's Funkier depths, the four piece have been preaching their 24 hour party people message to the masses for just under two years, racking up celebrity fans such as Ron Wood along the way.
Having recently been described by NME as "unmissable" and played support to 'Fun Lovin Criminals', 'The Levellers' and 'Republic of Loose' the band have recently released their much anticipated debut Album ‘/Mutiny Sounds’/ and are currently in an underground studio writing new tracks which will be unleashed this summer."

Good People say good things…
On the first two singles ‘So Lo’ and ‘Messed up’“Their debut single ‘Messed Up’ boasts a nice combination of rumbling baas and weird effects, overlaid with a tune so infectious it could require hospitalisationâ€
Hotpress
“Stand out track is definitely 'Born Again Kitchen'. This is not a foot-tapper but a full body shaking funk-tastic beat-filled tune. Qualityâ€
Connected Magazine
“If debut single 'So Lo' screamed Happy Mondays with it's baggy e-fulled edge, the recently released follow-up 'Messed Up' is the sinister come-down, layered with psychotic synths and blood soaked undertones while an unruly of a beat punches it's way through."
NME
â€Kill City Defectors who make you feel good guitar bands are back, and who also remind you what the volume knob on you CD player is forâ€
Hotpress
“Two tracks, both highly infectious. There's no known cure, so just succumb.â€
Hotpress
“ The 'Messed Up' video has the visual and musical moments expertly etched to leave a permanent imprint in your mind and a beat quirky enough to get your feet permanently 'Tangoed' (a pun most Europeans should get).Their debut album is also full of classic funked up indie riffs and synths that should even give most cynically lazy folk an inexplicable urge to move."

“The funky Spirit of the 70’s burns through the veins of Kildare newcomers Kill City Defectors. Blending choppy guitars, half-rapped vocals and the slinkiest drumming this side of the Bee Gees tribute night, their debut feels like a perfectly preserved time capsule from the era of fuzzy sideburns and wide denim. Not that they’re entirely in thrall to nostalgia: riding on LCD Soundsystem-tinged bleeps, Messed up is a pristine slice of NYC style discoid punk whilst So Lo cleverly juxtaposes industrial riffs and chill-lounge tempos. But the albums defining track Toe To Toe, is also the most derivative: with it’s devilish groove and steamy licks, it suggests the theme from Shaft recorded by early Sonic Youth. For those ready to get their funk on, Kill City Defectors are more than happy to cater for your needsâ€.
4 out of 5 stars **** The Metro
"Kildare's funk foursome finally get around to releasing something substantial following a couple of excellent P's. Fortunately, the album doesn't disappoint. It features beefed-up versions of formerly released tracks - 'Messed Up', 'So Lo' and 'Toe To Toe' among them - each giving just enough kick up the arse to make them sound fresher than before. There are also a slew of new tracks, including the driving opener 'Your Mutiny'. The trademark fat basslines, congas, keyboard noodles and all that other good shit are present in spades - play it loud, annoy the neighbors. They'll thank you for it". 5 out of 5 Stars ***** Connected Magazine.
"Kildare’s rock ‘n’ roll troubadours are versed in slinky basslines, funky rhythms and percussive swagger. Mutiny Sounds bursts out of the speakers with non-stop infectious tunes".

"DURING the opening chords of Kill City Defector's first song on the launch night of this record a brawl broke out in Eamonn Doran's in Temple Bar. The band played on. It's that raucous line between dancing and scrapping that KCD walk. Here, they've transferred their frantic live performances onto a debut album. Although there's a slight dependence on similar hook structures, more than occasionally KCD break out and come up with a sinister sonic surprise, notably on the spooky 'Black Sheep', all twisted synths and lyrics that speak of excess. Drunken, rowdy, funky: all in all, it's a pretty rocking record" Download: 'Your Mutiny', 'Black Sheep', 'So Lo'

"I'll hand you over to our guest IMRO correspondent BP Fenton-D'Arcy: Young Kildare hopefuls Killer City Deflections cook up a storm with their debut release which is certainly causing a stir on the vibrant Irish live scene as they prepare to take on the world with their unusual mix of both rock and dance influences. They sound at times like a jizzed-up Grand National but let's hope our boys fare better than those unheard of has-been Brit fuckos!
