The Drogues were born in the summer of 2001 by two friends who enjoyed bashing on guitars. They played with some very nice people, put out a CD and generally made people uncomfortable when they played live. In 2004, they stumbled across a drummer who claimed he had a gong that shot lasers. Holed up in an Oakland bunker, the trio proceeded to make an even louder racket: an angular sound inspired by their shared love of early eighties post-punk and agitprop political finger-flying.
Released in February, 2006, No Facts That Don't Fit is the second album on the band's own imprint, Waxbrain Records. Recorded at Tiny Telephone, John Vanderslice's all-analog San Francisco studio, with engineer Jay Pellicci (Deerhoof, Erase Errata), No Facts is a taut blast that faithfully captures the band's incessant, jittery live show.

Yes, that is Mike Watt and Kelly Clarkson. Your thoughts?
