A study in contradictions ; Lush instrumentals leading to heavy syncopated grooves, tension filled waves of dissonance give way to heart warming harmonies, the straight ahead pulse of rock counteracted with lyrics filled with surreal imagery.

Based out of Calgary, Alberta "This City Defects" began as early as 2007 when creator and band leader Adam Lamb started constructing epic arrangements out of mathy riffs and atmospheric soundscapes. With the help of Josh Wong (Vocals) and Matt Doherty (Drums), these early song constructions became the basis for some of the bands earliest demos. Devon Elaschuck (guitar) and Aaron Scholpp (bass) were added in 2008 to complete the line up and thus "This City Defects" was born.

Having only played a handful of shows before the release of their debut CD, the band has wasted no time earning the respect of their musical peers and fans alike. And why would they?All of the members are well experienced musicians who have all had success in other projects around western Canada, some of which include Axis of Conversation and Lint.

The groups influences are far ranging, Artists such as Brainiac,King Crimson, John Zorn,Sonny Sharrock,Hella,Don Caballero just to name a few.Their energetic live performances confirm the groups sense of reckless abandonment, but you'd be hard pressed to find the same amount of ambitious song writing from your favorite local punk band. This City Defects doesn't attempt to fit into any particular genre, but feels right at home in any sort of musical situation.

Lustre Cream are a Lethbridge progressive rock/hard rock trio
