Defiance No Future No Hope LP is the legendary 1996 debut full-length from the Portland Oregon street punk and anarcho band, originally released by Mind Control Records in the US and Skuld Releases in Europe. This Defiance LP captures the band in their rawest early form, delivering blistering anarcho-tinged street punk with politically charged lyrics that helped define the 90s American street punk resurgence. Recorded after their breakthrough 1995 European tour alongside The Casualties, The Final Warning, and The Varukers. Founded by Mike Arrogant on vocals and guitar with Kelly Halliburton (later of Detestation and Cluster Bomb Unit) on bass, Defiance became one of the most admired and influential punk bands of their era and went on to be cited as a major influence on Anti-Flag, The Unseen, The Casualties, and A Global Threat. Essential listening for fans of US street punk, anarcho-punk, Pacific Northwest punk, Portland hardcore, and the 90s American street punk explosion.
