Editorial review
Under the Drone debuted with a 2004 EP of sludgy, bottom-heavy stoner rock that was largely devoid of original ideas. For their first full-length record, Keep It Shred, the Denver-based quartet still worships at the altar of Kyuss and Queens of the Stone Age, but there's a greater spark to the songs. Sibling rhythm section Dave Harper (bass) and Mike Harper (drums) put considerably more energy into their playing this time round, pushing the tempos past the drowning-in-molasses mark on several tunes, and there's a somewhat more aggressive edge to the band's overall sound now. Opening track "Gum" is downright punky, in fact. Unfortunately, lead singer Ben Gun is still rather lacking, both vocally and lyrically: not quite a note-for-note carbon copy of Josh Homme, Gun is still clearly under his influence, and that leaves Keep It Shred -- for all of its notable improvements over the EP -- sounding like the work of a second-rate band. ~ Stewart Mason, All Music Guide
Bio / Background
Under the Drone's four members, Ben Gun (vox, guitar), Justin Delz (guitar), and brothers Mike Harper (drums) and Dave Harper (bass) are all parts of a whole, the sum of which forms an ensemble of talented musicians who strive for excessive passion through music.
Put simply, Under the Drone lives to shred at the highest level, transcending life itself through Rock n Roll.
It all comes down to their shared passion of using music as a release, having a good time and rocking hard.
Their first self-titled EP, and 13 song full length are blistering examples of musical ingenuity and electric splendor. Put your keys in the ignition and crank it over. Hit ten on the stereo and let the songs inhabit your soul. Under the Drone will be number one on your list of bands you must see this year.
