Very little is known about Sewer Drainer. I couldn't find much information about them. All I know is that they're an extremely lo-fi blackened punk band. I think they're from the Los Angeles area, but I'm not entirely sure. This is their self-titled debut tape, which was released just this year.
Make no mistake. The music on this demo is dirty, heavily distorted, and really loud. The insane amount of distortion is quite similar to bands like Ythogtha and Black Beasts. As for the music, it's stripped-down, straightforward blackened punk. The drums mainly play simple punk beats while the cymbal crashes add an extra layer of calamity. The guitars play punk riffs through a black metal filter. They're simple, minimalistic, and really aggressive. They sound similar to Bone Awl. I don't like Bone Awl, but I like this. The vocals sound similar to Ythogtha in that they consist of a heavily distorted rasp and growl, like the sounds of a foul creature that lives in the sewers. I love 'em. They sound positively grotesque.
Sewer Drainer is a nasty, stinking mess of a band, and I love 'em. I love the massive amounts of distortion and I love the minimalistic performance. If you're a fiend for heavily distorted blackened punk, then I'm sure you'll love this.
