・ディスコグラフィ D.R.U.G.S. (2011)
メンバーが1人ってどういうことや。ってなるよね。(笑) 元々ボーカルのCraigはChiodosっていうバンドのフロントマン。躁鬱病ってこともあって、メンバーとのいざこざもあったらしい。2009年、Craigは強制的に脱退させられてChiodosは新しいボーカリストBrandon Bolmerを迎える。 Chiodosを辞めたCraigが結成したバンドがD.R.U.G.S.。(メンバーの大半はバンド掛け持ち)結成翌年にアルバムリリースもしたんだけど、去年CraigがChiodosに戻ることになる。おそらくそれが原因だと思うけど、他のメンバーがD.R.U.G.S.を辞めることがオフィシャルで発表されて、バンドメンバーは実質Craig1人になった。他のメンバーは別口で何かしら始めている模様。 Mattが「No one is in DRUGS anymore except Craig.」って言ったらしいけど、それってなかなかシュールな状況よね。笑。今後どうするのかはわかんないけど、もう活動しないなら残念。
彼らの唯一のアルバムから最初にMV化されたこの曲がエモくてカッコいいので紹介します。 『If You Think This Song Is About You, It Probably Is』。タイトル長ぇ。でもこのセンス好きだな。「この曲が自分についてだと思うなら、多分そうなんだろう」。
So friends, you left me hanging in a room with a noose and a chair. You told me to stay put and reminded me why I was there. Cold blooded and misguided, You thought this would be your best, then you try to hide it. A chance to move ahead
Today was the day you tried to shut me down. Today was the day you tried to shut me down.
Be honest, Did you ever mention my name? Did you get sick of the shame? Did you lie on your back?
Be honest, Did you ever mention my name? Did you get sick of the shame? Did you lie on your back like a whore?
Close-minded with no direction. A chance to prove who you were Well, my friends you forgot to think all of the things that you're not.
Today was the day you tried to shut me down. Today was the day you tried to shut me down. Today was the day you tried to shut me down. Today was the day you tried to shut me down.
Be honest, Did you ever mention my name? Did you get sick of the shame? Did you lie on your back?
