Moncton’s DINER DRUGS Release Video For Punchy, Groovy âThis Warâ Off Upcoming EP “42”
Tour Dates (ON, QC, NL) w/ Cancer Bats, Thousand Knives
Diner Drugs is a four-piece stoner metal punk crew, born out of a desire to defeat the boredom of east coast living. Diner Drugs is fast, loud and are always keen to turn up the heat with catchy choruses and deep vocal harmonies while sticking to their deep stoner metal roots. They are ready to hit the road this spring and have a flashy new single âThis Warâ coming out to get fans excited. The single is the first look at a new EP that will be coming out this year. The band explains in detail:
âThis is the first single off of our latest EP titled â42â. We are proud of this loud and driving track, complete with catchy choruses and an epic, heavy ending. This song features powerful vocals, with lyrics warning about the dangers of assuming things will work out for the best, without cautiously preparing for the worst. So much hard work from so many people went into this, itâs loud and fast and we hope everyone digs it.â
The tour this spring will take Diner Drugs all over the east coast of Canada, covering the Maritimes, Ontario, and Quebec. With relaxed attitudes and groovy riffs, they enjoy bringing fun metal to people and enticing them to headbang. Loud and energetic is their goal, and their lyrics come from both personal experience and witnessing the experiences of others. They live in a have-not town, so they are more than familiar with hard times. They draw from these troubles for inspiration and hope to maybe help anyone stuck in these situations feel a little less alone in their battles.
Itâs loud, fast, meaningful metal, and according to the band the song means a lot more to them this time around and they feel it reflects in the upcoming record. They are recommended for fans of Cancer Bats, Dead Quiet, and Mokomakai.

âJack Of All Tradesâ uses clever drum timing between guitar riffs which assaults the senses in different ways and rattles your eardrums like an off-balanced washing machine. The skate punk style writing of this track will have you wondering if NOFX and Suicidal Tendencies had a baby.â â Sarah Hellingwerf, The East
âDiner Drugs is one of those âf&*k allâ bands that play heavy, fast and dirty rock.â â Jamie Robash, Divide and Conquer Music â
