Allusondrugs are rad.Okay, I'll elaborate. I've been banging on about how cool this band are for a while now, it's probably getting a bit much. Allusondrugs are a Leeds based grunge quintet with the most fabulous hair since Kurt Cobain left us. And before you say it, no, that's not a risen Cobain on the right, that's Jason and he's Allusondrug's vocalist. Not only does he have a lovely head of hair, but so do his bandmates and live they are a vision of hair flips and windmills. It's crazy and beautiful. Sorry, I'll stop talking about their hair now...
The special thing about Allusondrugs is not their hair, it's that they're not just another band from Yorkshire. They have an urgency in their sound that has lead them to embark on some amazing tours such as the current Big Cheese Tour with fellow Leeds howlers Marmozets and the beautiful Lonely The Brave. The reason this is important is because they are spreading their sound far and wide. It's a sound which has grit but it's also mellow and it's this odd concoction that makes you really want more. Since July 2012 they've been releasing music that you want to get your hands on and 2014's self-titled EP is a mini masterpiece. Cherry Pie is the song you really want to hear though as it showcases all sides of the band; there's guitars and bass and sludge and it's just so so good. It's worth youtubing Am I Weird? as well because it features some lyrics you won't forget in a hurry.
This isn't the only time you'll hear about Allusondrugs. They'll be headlining across the UK this winter and they will explode.
Listen to: Am I Weird?
You can catch the boys on The Big Cheese Tour now or on their headline tour later in the year,
