EL DRUGSTORE: Debut Album Streaming At American Aftermath

EL DRUGSTORE!!
Plague Ship Sails On New Year’s Eve

EL DRUGSTORE

As EL DRUGSTORE prepares for the release their debut full-length, Plague Ship, on New Year’s Eve, the whole album from the Jersey-based prog pirates is now playing.

The album stream is hosted by American Aftermath, who, in an early 9/10 review of the album, referred to the forty-five minute excursion as “hyperactive, disjunctive and jarring,” stating, “It will enthrall you as well as pummel you with its tornadoes of complex riffing and eccentricities.

Instrumental technical metal has been done before but EL DRUGSTORE have a style all their own and Plague Ship can attest to that.” A manifesto documenting the album’s instrumental madness track-by-track has been released alongside the album stream as well, providing a curious view into these lyric-free, anticapella dirges.

Comprised of guitarist Kevin Conway (ex-East of the Wall), drummer Seth Rheam (East of the Wall) and bassist Rolando Alvarado, EL DRUGSTORE‘s jacked-up delivery is at full-mast on Plague Ship, the record bearing over forty-five minutes of their belligerent, instrumental bombast.

On the dizzying array of head-scratching jam-outs, amplification runs rampant, propelling the massive array of effect/pedal-laden spazz-riffery through the pummeling percussive whiplash without a whiff of spitty breath to be found. Plague Ship was tracked at parts unknown by the band and their cohort Chris Alfano (East of the Wall, Argonauts), and mixed and mastered by Kevin Antreassian at Backroom Studios.
