DRUGS OF FAITH: Virginia Grinders Confirm September Tour with Drones For Queens


Northern Virginia-based grind/rock trio DRUGS OF FAITH have this week confirmed a live assault on the Northeastern quadrant of the country later this month. Running from September 20th through 23rd the tour will charge through Philadelphia, New York, Pittsburgh and Richmond alongside Philly grinders Drones For Queens.

Following-up their acclaimed Corroded full-length, released last year on Selfmadegod Records – which won over countless mags with year-end mentions, including #19 album of 2011 by Decibel Magazine -- DRUGS OF FAITH have confirmed that the construction of their next release has begun. The band have completed the writing process on three new tracks, and have segments of others falling into place. Otherwise there is no confirmed info for when this new material will see release available at press time, so stay tuned for further updates.

DRUGS OF FAITH September Tour w/ Drones For Queens:
9/20/2012 JR's – Philadelphia, PA
9/21/2012 Tobacco Road – New York, NY
9/22/2012 The Smiling Moose – Pittsburgh, PA
9/23/2012 Strange Matter – Richmond, VA

"...Drugs of Faith slows the raw, chaotically fast pace of grindcore to a hurtling mid-tempo right hook... But unlike the faster-than-fast drive of most grindcore, there's a dynamic push-and-pull at play, more suited to the controlled anarchy of the mosh." – NPR

"...the grinding, rocking, absolutely devastating trio, led by 'The Grindfather' Richard Johnson (Agoraphobic Nosebleed, Enemy Soil), have put out just enough songs to keep us salivating while never giving us what we really want." – Decibel Magazine

"...Corroded is energetic, pissed, and driven by huge hard riffs that have a sludgy groove but are sped up to raw goodness." – Music Emissions
