The Drowns “Under Tension” LP In Stores Now!

It is our pleasure to announce that the wait is officially OVER for UNDER TENSION, the rabidly-anticipated LP from Pacific Northwest punk rock powerhouses THE DROWNS! As of today, this spectacular long-player is available wherever fine records are sold!

For their first LP on PIRATES PRESS RECORDS, the band worked with veteran producer TED HUTT (DROPKICK MURPHYS, THE GASLIGHT ANTHEM, FLOGGING MOLLY, STREET DOGS), and the results are nothing short of incredible. THE DROWNS‘ rock-solid songwriting and road-tested playing sound better than ever across 11 fist-in-the-air, shout-along anthems, including 10 new originals and a cover of the all-time JIMMY CLIFF classic, “The Harder They Come.”

This is a vital record that is everything you’ve ever loved about punk rock, but far from a nostalgia trip, the songs on UNDER TENSION engage with modern days and keep an eye of the future as they present their intensely personal perspectives on life and struggle in our society. This is a record that could only be made from the heart, and one that will not leave your turntable for some time!

 
As a bonus, all orders will come with a FREE “Black Lung” flexi while supplies last!
