Drugs Of Faith from Virginia

Formed in 2002, DRUGS OF FAITH quickly released several demos and a song on a Terrorizer Magazine compilation CD before signing with Selfmadegod Records who released their eponymous debut album in 2005, which took them to Europe for their first tour with Blood I Bleed in 2007, the same year they released their split with Antigama.

 

In 2011, DRUGS OF FAITH released their second album, Corroded, which appeared on best-of-2011 lists from Decibel Magazine, Invisible Oranges, Pitchfork, and MetalSucks. Two years later, their Architectural Failures EP made it onto best-of-2013 lists including Washington City Paper's Best Music Of D.C., Hellbound, American Aftermath, and more.

 

DRUGS OF FAITH landed a slot on Decibel Magazine's flexi series with a cover of Sacrifice's classic "Re-Animation" in 2014, then teamed up with labelmates Antigama for a tour of the U.S. East Coast in 2015, also releasing a split 7” with Cloud Rat that year. Their Decay EP was released in 2019. Decibel wrote, "think of them as the world's blast-friendliest noise rock band," while No Echo described, "sections that jump out at you with a twisted hookiness that only top-notch bands in the grind realm can create."
