It’s a long way to the top. dEFDUMp can certainly tell a lot of stories about that. Thirteen years ago, they were the main force behind Luxembourg’s second generation hardcore assault, and attracted a lot of criticism back then, in a "scene" which was marked as much by talent as it was by jealousy. One by one the pioneer bands drifted apart and dissolved, yet dEFDUMp are still around, inventing themselves again and again with every new release.
