The Skull Defekts is a band from Sweden in the very North of Europe. Their intense, monotonous, rhythmic and sexual out rock has since their start in early 2005 been spreading energies of various kinds to welcoming audiences and listeners.
The DFX have also been exploring worlds of noise, the drone and psychedelic electronics on waves on releases for labels like Riot Season, iDEAL, Release The Bats and Conspiracy Records. Their upcoming album for Important Records - "The Temple" (february 2009) can be seen as the follow up to last years "Blood Spirits & Drums Are Singing" (Conspiracy/Nail) but it's deeper, harder, more sex, more occult.
Get DFXed. DFX is sex, rhythm and the power of sound.
The Skull Defekts is
*Henrik Rylander on drums and electronics (ex-founding member of the infamous Swedish garage rock band Union Carbide Productions, photographer and sound artist).
*Joachim Nordwall on guitar, vocals and analog stuff (ex-member of Kid Commando and collaborator with Mika Vainio/Pan Sonic, Leif Elggren, Mark Wastell and others, curator and head of the brave record label iDEAL Recordings. Also member of Alvars Orkester, Satan Power and Oceans of Silver & Blood).
*Jean-Louis Huhta on percussion, effects and electronics (ex-member of Anti Cimex, Cortex, LPC etc, old school skater and legendary techno dj, also member of OCSID and Brommage Dub).
*Daniel Fagerstroem on guitar, vocals and electronics (ex-member of Trapdoor Fucking Exit, 8 Days of Nothing, The Members of Tinnitus. Founder of Moptaco Dics and graphic designer).
They have collaborated with artists like CM von Hausswolff, Lasse Marhaug, Sewer Election and others.
With a background in hardcore, garage rock, post punk and experimental music - The Skull Defekts wears echoes of their past alongside with influences from tribal roots music, sufi rituals, drone, techno, no wave, 80's Factory Records stuff and it's surroundings, industrial music, the occult, underground club culture and manipulations of the mind...
The DFX is collaborating with some great visual artists, like Fredrik Söderberg and Are Mokkelbost.
The Skull Defekts is all about R H Y T H M, repetition and all energies in sound.

I am now
recording for a new set of releases called the "Persona Series". These
cassettes will be commissioned works (not by content, but by payment)
for individuals. If John Smith in London, England wants his own Zebulon
Kosted album, I will make a 45 minute album (one side of a 90 minute
tape), 2 hand drawn mini posters, I will name the album after him
(Zebulon Kosted - John Smith), and the fan will retain all rights to
the recording (for use of any future release, sampling, or broadcasting
rights). One copy of the album will remain in my personal collection,
and one will be sent to the customer, so that the only copy that will
be in circulation will be John Smiths copy! Each album is available for
the ridiculously low price of $10 (not including shipping), and will be
shipped in its completed form no later than 6 weeks from the date of
purchase!!!
Det hittills mest groteskt uppsvällda numret av sveriges ledande
utanförskapshobbytidskrift är ute nu! Vi snackar bland mycket annat Yo
Amoeba, fulåkning på tåg, Miss Mimi + the Mysticals/Incesthora,
blodsprutande kartongrustningskrig, Mitt hjärta är en bomb,
penetrerbara lösrövar, mammafuktiga grötberg, svårförklarlig
vardagsaktionism och Eddie Meduzaförsjunkning, frodigt könshår,
praktiska utopitips, Gällivares hemliga noisescen, irrfärder i
östblocket, snyggkull och väderspänningar, studentikost jävla dumsnusk
vi tar avstånd från, överviktiga/efterblivna morsaknullare, oroande GG
Allin-fanatism, Malmömisär, kristna källarmöten, pensionärssångare,
dyrköpta närkontakter med vårdapparaten, Brainbombs, 00-talsnostalgi,
kejsarsnitt och posters vi minns, allt tjockt och tuggmotständigt
utsmetat över 208 fördömda sidor. Medverkar gör folk av Henrik Möllers,
Nanna Johanssons, Sara Hanssons, Per Teljers, Svante Tidholms, Mats
Jonssons och Pontus Lundkvists kaliber, för att nämna några få.
