drifteffect

Having long abandoned the kazoo-choir as a medium for artistic and political expression, we 5 members of Drift Effect found solace in the extreme ridiculousness and undeniable importance of all the aspects of rock music, from the soft soothing lullabies to the fist pumping heavy riffs. Recognizing that we are currently stuck in the prison that is middle class suburbia and that there are others caught in prisons both similar, different and much worse elsewhere in the world, we strive to entertain as well as make a point: We were never meant to have our reality dictated to us by our senses and the observations of conformists. There's more going on than you know: And as soon as we as people close our minds, we might as well be dead. The 5 of us managed to come together and are trying to refine a sound that makes you think as well as feel.

And all this without taking our pants off. Or asking you to, for that matter.

Every emotion and every thought is a part of who you are, from the ludicrously hysterical to the deepest felt rage. Don't compromise that for anything. Especially The Establishment.

Ever.
