Many, many years ago, the idiosyncratic, art-damaged Albany project Self Defense Family emerged from the ashes of the hardcore band End Of The Year. It’s hard to even describe Self Defense Family; it’s basically a revolving-lineup collective that functions as a de facto solo project for sole permanent member Patrick Kindlon. When Kindlon started leading Drug Church around 2013, that band initially functioned as a Self Defense Family side project. Kindlon still likes to maintain that Self Defense Family is his main vehicle, even though it has gone inactive while Drug Church have taken off. Now, Self Defense is finally back.
