What they say about mdh2:
"Next time you're raking through the 'Psychedelia' section of your favourite record store, deciding which compilation of 60s obscurities to purchase, don't. Buy 'My Drug Hell 2' instead.
” (JON GORDON-TASTY FANZINE)
"Short, sharp and straight to the point, My Drug Hell 2 pays you the compliment of being blunt; firing off watertight tunes packed to the rafters with tall tales of life, love and let-downs.
" (OLI SIMPSON-BEARDED)
“…a success – heavy on melody and retro charm… sprightly, neat and economical rock and roll.
” (THE WORD)
“dreamy…much in the way of the same charm they always did.
” (NME)
"The delicate, husky whispers of Tim Briffa are subtle reminders of how good Ian Brown used to be.
" (THE MAG)
My Drug Hell are a West-London power-trio strongly influenced by all things Sixties from both sides of the Atlantic.
The band's first album ("This Is My Drug Hell") was recorded at the now famous Toe Rag Studio and gained international recognition with reviews ranging from "Pure Pop Perfection!" (NME) to "A Must Have!" (Q Magazine,) while spending more than three months in the US college radio charts. The single "Girl At The Bus Stop" reached Number One on various radio stations across the States, entered the year's Top 100 on Australia's Triple J at No 57, was voted Single Of The Week on England's XFM, GLR and Radio 1 and has also been used for soundtracks (The Black Circle Boys, Origin Of The Species,) TV themes and a Miller beer commercial. 'This Is My Drug Hell' was recently re-released on Forthesakeofthesong (www.myspace.com/forthesakeofthesongltd or contact via forthesakeofthesong@hotmail.com.)
A brand new single entitled Mysteries Of Love b/w Goblins, Mermaids and Things is to be released on Dec 1 2008 on CD, 7" and download and the band's long-awaited second album 'My Drug Hell 2' will be released on 23 Feb 2009 on CD, vinyl and download.

Why is it that great new rock is often called retro? While today's rockers often need to look to an earlier time, I wouldn't consider MDH a "throwback." As a survivor of the sixties, this could be the best band I've heard since then. Will James, G3P

Reviews
"The fourth and latest release of OJM is Under the Thunder, a real bombshell dropped by an exceptional producer: Michael Davis, the MC5's original bass player! It is an irresistible mix of Led Zeppelin, Blue Cheer, Stooges, MC5, Black Sabbath and Grand Funk Railroad. The band is dominated by the magnetic stage presence of David, whose's deep, sonorous baritone voice combines elements of Black Sabbath with The Doors. Alex's phasing, feedback and distortion are perfectly combined with the bombastic drumming of Max and further enhanced by the kaleidoscopic sound effects of Andrea, who puts the notes through a wah wah pedal to produce overdriven, distorted overtones.
