Defekt 86 play a cheeky mixture of Darkwave and Post-punk. Their music varies from heavy guitars up to rather experimental synthetic sounds, the tempi are versatile designed as well, and also the vocals, which oscillates between melancholy and aggression.
Thus one feels reminded of Joy Division, Sisters of Mercy, early Cure, or remotely of Einstürzende Neubauten, nevertheless, the sound of Defekt 86 on no account seems antiquated, but innovatively and modern formed.
