The Drags Dragsploitation… Now! LP

One of three well-deserved DRAGS reissues delivered by Total Punk this year, Dragsploitation… Now! is a brief and potent ride through the band’s legendary ’60s-fueled punk swagger in its earlier stages. Originally released as a 10” by Estrus in 1995, this was their sophomore effort following the iconic I Like to Die 7”. Alongside the MAKERS, THEE HEADCOATS, and a handful of others, these guys forged the throwback garage style of the ’90s, offering an eye-opening take on punk for impressionable youth of that era (including yours truly.) Dig that crazy beat—it still feels fresh 30 years later.
