Post-hardcore Destroy Rebuild Until God Shows (D.R.U.G.S.) is back with a new full-length album, 'DESTROY REBUILD,' their first release since 2011's acclaimed self-titled debut album. Craig Owens is once again at the project's helm and has again orchestrated a band and record that is sure not just to catch your attention but also keep it. The new release, 'DESTROY REBUILD,' offers listeners the uniquely nostalgic D.R.U.G.S. sound they have been craving while also exploring new territories making 'DESTROY REBUILD' the perfect progression and exciting new chapter.
When Owens got to writing, he described Destroy Rebuild Until God Shows's signature sound as "fast, to the point, syncopated rhythms with a melody on top." The aggressive melodies are paired with low-tuned guitars and introspective lyrics to create the nostalgic alternative rock sound that we all grew up with and have come to crave. To capture this sound, Owens connected with A-List producer Howard Benson whose past work with My Chemical Romance and The All American Rejects heavily influenced the modern alternative rock world. Benson's raw talent for recording helped shape the structures and harmonies of the album. Owens found this collaborative process cathartic and embraced his newfound flow of creativity.
Owens' knack for creating sincere lyrics shines through while touching on topics like destiny, perspective, and redemption on 'DESTROY REBUILD.' It is a physical manifestation of the course he has taken in his musical career and encapsulates each step along the way. "Everything that we are today is because of yesterday, and this depicts where I have been, but also where I'm going." It is a bright reflection of one's life and actions, and it encourages the listener to do the same in their own life.
"DESTINY," the first single off of the record, is a solid bridge between the first D.R.U.G.S. self-titled record and 'DESTROY REBUILD.' Is it a hard-hitting track that expertly blends the nostalgic alternative rock sound with enough modernity that's sure to appeal to many different listeners. Another track off the album, "The Arm," is a collection of melodies, lyrics, and hooks eloquently constructed together. It is known as the "anomaly" of the album due to its organic nature of origin and leans toward the band's future.
'DESTROY REBUILD' is an exciting new beginning for Owens. It is a way for him to connect with fans to share life experiences, and he is hoping the album will help them cope with whatever they are dealing with and experiencing. "This album is my first step forward without thinking of running back," Owens stated. "I hope it can leave a mark and grow with people."

Born from the ashes of defunct bands in Maryland & Virginia, Savage Hands might be a young band, but they certainly don't lack experience. The collective members have ample experience in writing and playing their music to audiences in support of several noteworthy nationwide tours—experience enough to write and record an album with Andrew Baylis (My Enemies & I, Sylar) which garnered the attention of SharpTone Records. Filled with catchy hooks that weave in and out of blood-pumping, adrenaline-spiking verses and visceral, gut-busting breakdowns, Savage Hands' debut effort is one that makes the ground shake and inspires an emotional, energetic uproar within the listener. Never sacrificing a sense of poetic wit and sharp-tongued flair for their equally engaging punchy musicianship, Savage Hands' debut effort in early 2018 is just the first of many things bound to craft a stellar—and savage—future.
