In Defence are back with another classic video. I’m old, so In Defence always reminds me of classic goofball punk outfits like Crucial Youth or Quincy Punx. The music is solid, but its the lyrics that set them apart from the crowd (Blind Approach reference there). Funny, goofy, with a heavy twist on mockery. Their albums are great, but it’s in video format, where the lyrics come to life, that these guys really shine.
Support them!

Here is In Defence’s video for the song “Curbside Dentistry” from the album Party Lines and Politics out on Profane Existence Records.
Video recorded by Jesse Meehl. Written/Directed/Edited by Jeff Nicholas. Special thanks to Victory and the Twin Cities Skinheads for their help and support.
This is the official video for In Defence’s song Black Metal Mania from their new album Party Lines and Politics on Profane Existence Records. Directed/Edited by Jeff Nicholas. Filmed by Jesse Meehl.
From PE: This “mix tape” features most of our current roster. The tracks were taken from recent releases that are still available and in print. The exception being State of Fear and Disrespect, who aren’t active anymore, but were included because their members actively contributed to the life of Profane Existence while they were around… and in Dan’s (Disrespect) case still do! We thought about going back into our catalog and pulling out some of the classic “crust hits” but decided to focus our attention on what’s happening now. Looking back, the mix tape that stood out to me were the ones full of new and obscure bands. They marked different era’s in my life… new discoveries… and that’s why I liked them.
This is the last of the In Defence stuff I can find online. My understanding is that everything is still in print, so I can’t post any music at this point. If I’m wrong, let me know.
Now, since I don’t own any In Defence, I’m going to stop posting and try to find something to buy.
Really liking what I’m hearing from these guys. The latest video by these guys is funny, fast hardcore which tells me that these guys not only know how to rock, they get what punk rock is all about. Their previous video (also posted here) was shot inside a Taco Johns. Right on.
Eau Claire, WI – 10/26/07:
When Friday night’s show at Nate’s Dungeon was shut down by the cops, we somehow ended up loading the gear into Taco John’s. Thanks to the help of Taco Sean, history was made.
"Theres a whole lotta hardcore goin on, goin on at Taco John’s!"
Impromptu punk shows are kind of a novilty. Punk fans of th 90’s will remember Dirt Poor doing a simillar thing in the back of a U-Haul at the Uptown Bar. That’s pretty punk rock!
My name is Dave, and I grew up in Minnesota listening to the many punk & hard core bands that I'm featuring here. More important though, is that I'm not just posting the stuff that like, but I'm making an attempt to document every band that had something to do with the punk scene in Minnesota. From your Husker Du & Replacements to Dirt Poor & the Kung Fools. Bands that played bars, and bands that played basements and garages. I'd like it all represented here.
I'd also like your help. I can't possible do it all by myself, so if you want to see something here, let me know. If you see something on the net that deserves a mention here, let me know. If you'd like to contribute, let me know.
If you are in a band that I've posted here, and you want your stuff removed, just ask, and it will be removed. Most of my posts are links to other people's posts. Some of it is from my personal record collection. It is my intent to only post stuff that you can not otherwise buy. Long out of print stuff. If I link to stuff that is in print, I will try to include a link to actually purchase it. That won't happen very often though, since I try to post only stuff that I know to be out of print. If the band has an official website, I'll try to post a link to it. If I get something wrong, or you'd like to contribute something, let me know.
All I ask is that you enjoy the crap I post and if you have any suggestions, send me an email at: webbastard at mnpunk.com
