Mumbai-based Punk Rock band have dropped their first album in four years - ‘Grugs Are Dood’, a live set recorded at Above The Habitat at their last live performance in the pre-pandemic era.

Titled in a typical NOFX fashion, and inspired by their quintessential record ‘Punk in Drublic’, this live album features 11 tracks from the Punk on Toast’s debut EP ‘For Hire’ and debut album ‘We Abuse A Lot, So What?’.

Trying an unusual format this time around, frontman Aditya Naik says “We always believed that we are better as a performing act, than a recording band. Putting out a live record made the most sense because the energy just translates right.”

“It was one of the best sounding shows we’ve had.” says guitarist and sound engineer Kunal Dole.

While their sound draws sonic inspirations from bands like Ramones and NOFX, the tracklist highlights the band’s anti-establishment ethos, personal losses and heartbreaks. “A huge part of this setlist reflects back to a time we were pissed off with the authorities and elitists. The outlook on these songs are relevant to this day, and is a reminder that we are still being silenced by people in power.” he further says.

The album was recorded at the 10th edition of live gig-series United We Groove and also features Doom Metal outfit Dirge’s vocalist Tabish Khidir on their track ‘MH370’. Recorded by Sreejith Menon and mixed by Kunal Dole, ‘Grugs Are Dood’ boasts the band’s loud, distorted sound and what’s to come in their upcoming release.

‘Grugs Are Dood’ is available for listening on all music streaming platforms.
