Drain

Love at First Sting

Scorpions ·1984

"Scorpions, Love at First Sting, this is my dad's favorite band and he put me onto them when I was a kid... this one's great 'cause it has 'Big City Nights' and obviously that's a good track, you know, and the guitar playing really shaped how I play and stuff."

What a Long Strange Trip It's Been: The Best of the Grateful Dead

Grateful Dead ·1977

"I think a lot of people maybe don't recognize it because they don't know, but a lot of the imagery of this band and we use, whether it's through merch or flyers, is very largely influenced by Grateful Dead. It's just funny because a lot of people like, 'Grateful Dead sucks,' and I'm like, 'I don't know, you know, I'll be honest, I just get really influenced off their stuff, their tour shirts, their flyers, their art.'"

Psychic Dance Routine - EP

Scowl ·2023

"Psychic Dance Routine is dope, man. The music's great and these are just good homies. It's like actual living proof that if you just put your mind to it, you can be on top of the world."

Pocket Full of Kryptonite

Spin Doctors ·1991

"Spin Doctors Pocket Full of Kryptonite, I know Tim really likes this album too. Just really good early '90s, just like funk rock, kind of in a way similar to like Living Color, which I also like."

GLOW ON

Turnstile ·2021

"Glow On is my favorite band and musically but also just like the doors they’re opening for everybody in bands like us. I just get stoked on it; we got to see them two times in September and each time it's just like the coolest thing ever."

The Age of Quarrel

Cro-Mags ·1986

"Straight up, one of my favorite records, one of my top ten for sure, is 'The Age of Quarrel' by Cro-Mags. I found this when I was a teenager because I came from listening to metal and stuff like that, and I started to notice flyers of the Cro-Mags playing with thrash bands. I still bump this album to this day."

Stay Sick!

The Cramps ·1990

"I got the Cramps' 'Stay Sick!' I first heard the Cramps in high school. My favorite movie of all time is 'Return of the Living Dead,' which has like the best soundtrack of all time. I just thought they were so weird and like did that weird kind of rockabilly, just weird stuff. It was super cool, just super fascinated with it."

Shock Troops

Cock Sparrer ·1982

"Shock Troops by Cock Sparrer is just dope music, the catchiest hooks by like the toughest people ever, and it makes you feel invincible."

I NEVER LIKED YOU

Future ·2022

"Shouts out to Future man I listen to Future every single day I don't care what no one says he's a goat."

40oz. to Freedom

Sublime ·1992

"I hate how much I love Sublime but I love Sublime and it's all thanks to this man right here... this thing is dope and the art, are you kidding me? 40oz. to Freedom, it's classic dude, it's dope."
