The Defiled
The Defiled are a four piece British industrial metal band from London, England mixing groove-laden hardcore/metal with electronic music influences. They have been described by Kerrang! magazine as "The saviours of UK Metal" and championed by Metal Hammer as one of the leaders in a new wave of British metal along with bands such as While She Sleeps, Bury Tomorrow and Devil Sold His Soul. The band have built a fanbase following support slots with bands such as Murderdolls, Static-X, Godsmack, Deathstars and Motionless in White as well as playing Download and Sonisphere festivals.
History
Early Years, 1888 and Grave Times (2005-2011)
The band formed in 2005, and quickly embarked a number of tours early in their careers including their second, entitled "The Black Death Tour" climaxing in a sold out London show at the Underworld. These gigs have earned the band a reputation for their energetic and chaotic live shows.
With a series of sought-after demos trading between fans, the band released their first EP (1888) in 2009, and released their full album Grave Times for free, in the January issue of Metal Hammer. The Deluxe edition of the album (including a bonus disc), which had more preorders than both Rob Zombie and Foo Fighters and included the 1888 ReWorks EP and 2 music videos, was released on 14 February 2011. The Defiled headlined the Jagermeister stage at Sonisphere in July 2011 and opened the main stage at Bloodstock Open Air in August of the same year. They were nominated for the Best New British Band award in the Metal Hammer 2011 Golden Gods awards.

The Resurrectionists
by: Defiled'Cause we'll defy the maker
To make our own survive
'Cause we're the tainted ones
But we are the saviours of you all
Dig up the corpses
Let the blood run free
We need to see things die
To bring the dead to life
Humanity rests on plagues of locusts
Clip their wings to teach the world to fly
Because your feet are at rest
When the bombs start falling down
And the spooks in your closet
Are the smiles of discontent
Let the gallows fall
I will be the knife
Reach for our voices when
End of day has been and gone
Humanity rests on plagues of locusts
Clip their will to teach the world to fly
'Cause we're the poison in your blood
And we're the noose around your neck
The resurrectionists feeding from the cradle to the grave
'Cause we'll defy the maker
To make our own survive
'Cause we're the tainted ones
But we are the saviours of you all
Dig up the corpses
Let the blood run free
We need to see things to die
To bring the dead to life
Humanity rests on plagues of locusts
Clip their wings to teach the world to fly
'Cause we're the poison in your blood
And we're the noose around your neck
The resurrectionists feeding from the cradle to the grave
'Cause we're the poison in your blood
And we're the noose around your neck
The resurrectionists feeding from the cradle to the grave
To the grave
As we pray for floods, as the seasons change
The resurrectionists feeding the lives
