"Unlicensed Hall Monitor" lyrics
There’s a guy with a search history darker than a sea trench telling you how to live
Closet, crawlspace, and attic full of skeletons
A grown man who can’t handle his life for shit
A scummy fraud who wants to be your boss, can’t handle his shit
Seen’m before
There’s always one
He’s hard to miss
A born asshole
Keeping tabs on
Running tattle
On the people making things
There’s a guy in a group chat with klansmen telling you how to live.
Just a matter of time till he’s the one twisting in the wind
But man it makes me sick to sing this

Drug Church should be somewhere up there with Turnstile...very underrated band. Gotta love Drug Church

[@Nofuture409]

Real

[@canyonsebesta1746]

They are duuude

[@MakeAnarchyNotWar]

You americans don't know how lucky you are with bands like Drug Church. But with HC scene in general. Here, in east europe it's non-exist. I wish i could go to a show like this. 😢❤ A guy from hungary. Keep the energy and tear up everything!

[@Nersius]

Saw your comment previewed, thought you were full of it, but this song is incredible. Really need to check out their discog.

[@EliPorterMahn]

Dude these guys are million times better than turnstile turnstile just recycles old 80's hardcore riffs

[@spencerbell8386]

Every single song on this record is gonna be a hit. It's almost frustratingly good.

[@nabahatbenaibout5374]

I soooo agree with you

[@finneganodonnell7074]

It was true!

[@brothaclutch984]

I literally stumbled on this in the iTunes Store about a month ago and I’m hooked. The whole album is amazing

[@meganpiazza1528]

​@@trippwilsonphotoGood one 🙄

[@trippwilsonphoto]

@@meganpiazza1528 i was never accused of being a comedic genius

[@macauleydavies3114]

every song of the new album has stood out, drug church need more recognition

[@lowshun]

I have an axe to grind....with how good this song is.

[@loganrunaways]

SPELL IT OUT

[@the_spruce_moose]

i get it!

[@michaelbarrymore5349]

I must've listened to this song over 50 times in two days. I can't get over how good it is.

[@Sunset_o_scene]

This is one of those records that comes along every once in a while. Thank God for Punk Rock.

[@TeamUSA8bp]

a lil pixies, a lil minor threat, nirvana, sonic youth, pinback..I'm a sucker for the euphoric waves of melodic grungies!

“Show me the body” look it if you want punk.

[@Leonthotskys]

Too many unlicensed hall monitors telling us how to live, great tune

[@kareemshams4541]

This is the type of amazing music I'd stumble on a Tony Hawk game nowadays, only if it was still a thing

[@fila365]

Hahahahah YES

[@Punishedangelo]

ye

[@lukeallen9687]

These guys are so 90s. This song sounds like it could have been on the Anti Matter comp. I dig.

[@egodef7791]

I still gotta come back to this video from time to time

[@lostcontinenttube]

those lead guitar parts omg

[@Lukewarm111]

The lyrics in this are legit hilarious

[@garypearson5033]

Saw these in Nottingham. Great live band and this was probably my favourite song of 2019.

[@ctrlaltbass6990]

I was there too! That gig was insane. My mate went to see Flogging Molly at Rock City instead on that night. He listened to some Drug Church a few days later and regretted that decision haha.

[@volqifpv]

The best band ever!!! The best song ever. Waiting for the 2nd of November. From all of the dozens ,hundreeds of the the new-formed bands but also existing bands - Drug Church are the only one who makes me feel alive , makes me feel like a kid . Thanks for that and sorry for my English.

[@xLazarusEnvy]

Well said, even if English isn't your primary language.

[@sayywhiteboy5019]

Best video of 1990

[@NauticalFish]

This will always be my favorite music video of all time, unbelievably metal guys, extremely well done

[@steve9094]

I just discovered this album after sleeping on it for a few years. Holy fuck, is it good! It's right up my alley - hardcore punk influence with catchy ultra-90s-sounding guitar lines and relatable lyrics. It's like someone created a band specifically designed to appeal to me.

[@sk8terkek429]

Holy shit this band can do no wrong!

[@slayerthecat6riley152]

This band was a highlight @punkrockbowling... saw’em twice. Come back thru Las Vegas 🙏🏽

[@marcin2x4]

Reminds me of Unwound, post-hc band :)

[@lorandliszkai7084]

It sounds very 2000's. I love it.

[@emilyelizabeth4365]

Loránd Liszkai I agree! I get that vibe too

[@uncledog-x2n]

This is great work. Really innovative and interesting playing as a band, very tight. The vox has incredible phrasing and the drumming ties this work together neatly. Keep it up guys, this is great stuff.

[@Curtin-mf3xy]

I'm blown away. Amazing song and a beautiful outro

[@dca9143]

Love this song, you kicked ass with this one Drug Church. Someone tell me where I can watch that church madness at 2:18 hahaha

[@spraynardkruger9903]

Unreal how fucking good this band is

[@andyhooper2840]

The way he says shit reminds me of touretts guy. I mean that in the most endearing way.

[@collinboyd1734]

Just seen these guys live last night and my knee is skinned up and bleeding from moshing too hard. These guys are sick af

No such thing as a bad Drug Church song.

The background video clips speak volumes without a sound.

[@garypearson5033]

Last band I was permitted to see before Government enforced lockdown. Hopefully it won't be the last time.

[@tjthomas1227]

this song is super relevent right now

[@r.a.v.9453]

Que buena canción me hizo el día 🤘🏼😌 que buen ritmo!!!

[@accorsistudios]

Hell yeah peoples. This band has it

[@patrickburns7261]

The album cover is nazi iconography, the CHEER at the top is like letters on a mailbox. (convergence of fascist ideology and the suburban American household). The three figures: refer to Foam Pit. Cheer can mean happiness (ironic) or CHEER, a demand, or an instruction, capitalized like a lot of fascist propaganda. A lot of the album deals with power/dynamics (Tillary, Dollar Story, Conflict Minded) I'd write a 33 1/3 on this book if I could, the lyrics really hit home. Just when I thought that Drug Church couldn't top Paul Walker!

[@chadnordahl6916]

I'd like to hear more about this

[@urm9.m]

So when is that book coming out?

He's like that one friend who just calls you to rant about his entire day but you like him so it's cool.

F1gment Zer0 pretty much saying how the people who are the typical corporate boss people are usually the ones who don’t even have their own shit together. He’s calling out the mediocrity.

The only way this song could be more Punk, is if it was a minute shorter and the drums sounded like trash.

Do people realise that this is about people like Milo y. and Peterson?

😂 reaching a bit there bud

[@enfercesttout]

A grown man who can’t handle his life for shit A scummy fraud who wants to be your boss, can’t handle his shit There’s a guy in a group chat with klansmen telling you how to live. it's more than obvious.

[@enfercesttout]

Video shows televangelists too. Song is obviously about right wing grifters.

[@giveryourall5413]

existential. anarchist Don’t think they had Milo and Peterson in mind when writing this song 😂 but yeah watching the video I guess it could be aimed at theocrats, zealots, religious bullies and conservatives

[@enfercesttout]

yeah, i said people like em. There's always a one as they say.

That riff sounds like title fight - leaf
