Defocus - COMA
Defocus, one of Germany’s most exciting progressive metalcore acts, return with their crushing new single 'COMA'. Packed with razor-sharp riffs, atmospheric melodies and a chorus that refuses to leave your head, the track showcases the band’s unique ability to capture today’s spirit.

Lyrically, 'COMA' dives into the struggle of being consumed by trauma and despair, yearning for cryosleep as an artificial escape from suffering without giving in to death.
