Act Of Defiance Debut New Song – “The Talisman”


Act Of Defiance, the band featuring Chris Broderick, Henry Derek, Shawn Drover and Matt Bachand, recently announced that their highly anticipated sophomore album, Old Scars, New Wounds, will be hitting stores on September 29th via Metal Blade Records, and we have another new song streaming for your listening pleasure today. So far they’ve shared the ‘Overexposure’ and ‘M.I.A.’ singles online, and thanks to Loudwire, you can hear ‘The Talisman’ today.

Shawn Drover said this about the track, “‘The Talisman’ was written by our bass player Matt Bachand with lyrics and melodies provided by our singer, Henry Derek. I really love how this song builds from a nice serene beginning, morphing into a full heavy metal assault. The verses are nice and sludgy and brutal, so this tune is really dynamic, which is something we like to do, certainly. We hope you dig it as much as we do!
