Baltimore, MD noise rock band Birth (Defects) just announced their first record in 8 years: Deceiver/Mirror, out May 30 via Reptilian Records.
The album was initially recorded in 2017, just after its predecessor, but written and recorded as the band came apart. It was put on the shelf, but not forgotten after all.
