⋘"The Age Of Reason" closes out "CORRODED", the debut full length effort by Richard Johnson's newest original project, DRUGS OF FAITH. Many of you will know the name Richard Johnson from bands such as ENEMY SOIL, AGORAPHOBIC NOSEBLEED, and even as a guest on varying projects such as PIG DESTROYER (guests on "Book Burner") and other prominent grind acts from the Virginia/Washington D.C. area.
The album was put out via Selfmadegod Records on February 14, 2011, available on CD and LP, as well as digitally through Bandcamp or one of the other links below. Stylistically, Drugs of Faith is unlike any band I've ever heard; grind 'n' roll is without a doubt their style, and until you hear it for yourself, you won't really understand what that means or what it sounds like. This is one of the more unique bands out there, and their live show is phenomenal; a must see!!!⋙
◊ ◊ ◊ ◊ ◊ BAND BIOGRAPHY & INFORMATION ◊ ◊ ◊ ◊ ◊
Some friends start Drugs Of Faith in 2002, originating from an idea to start a punk band, and of course write songs for their first demo. Over time, as many bands do, they record for two 7” EPs which as it turns out are never released, but which result in a compilation spot (Terrorizer Magazine) and two more demos.
Drugs Of Faith has traditionally constructed its lineups by bringing in friends and former band mates of its members’ old groups, or from recommendations from other pals. The band’s current drummer was actually found from online classifieds. Ah, technology.
The band has out a mini-album on Selfmadegod Records and a split CD with Antigama. In 2007 they went to Europe for nine shows, on tour with Blood I Bleed from the Netherlands (ex-My Minds Mine).
"Corroded", the band's debut full length record, came out via SELFMADEGOD RECORDS on February 14, 2011 (CD & LP versions available). According to insider sources from Drugs Of Faith, the grind 'n' roll group has just finished recording a brand new EP, which is due for release sometime before the end of 2013.
