Drug Church has returned! Today, punk’s most beloved agitators are announcing their new album,  PRUDE (Pure Noise Records), due October 4th. For over a decade, Drug Church has been building a strong case that they’re the best loud guitar band in the game, and PRUDE feels like it just might be the undeniable proof. 

PRUDE is 28 minutes of hardcore aggression and ’90s alternative hooks bursting at the seams with personality, irreverence, and heart. It’s a record that’s so instantly satisfying that it almost belies what an unexpected feat it is for a prickly, hard-to-pigeonhole punk band from Albany, NY to become one of the most consistently crowd-pleasing outfits on planet earth.

Drug Church is celebrating the announcement of PRUDE by sharing its first single, “Demolition Man,” alongside a music video starring the one and only Biff Wiff, known for his work in I Think You Should Leave, Everything Everywhere All At Once, and more. It’s a towering cut of furiously catchy melodies that applies frontman Patrick Kindlon’s signature sardonic lyricism to the question: what is the purpose of humankind? “A song about envying dogs because they know what they’ve gotta do each day,” he explains. “I’m sure dogs are often confused, but they always have the north star of instinct. People live without it.”
