DESTROY REBUILD UNTIL GOD SHOWS (D.R.U.G.S.) SHARE “IT FOLLOWS” — LISTEN
NEW ALBUM UNTIL GOD SHOWS ARRIVES VIA VELOCITY RECORDS ON SEPTEMBER 27
Post-hardcore band Destroy Rebuild Until God Shows (D.R.U.G.S.), featuring Chiodos’ Craig Owens, recently announced their third album UNTIL GOD SHOWS. The album — their first since 2022’s DESTROY REBUILD and following their 2011-issued, self-titled debut — arrives on September 27 via Velocity Records. Pre-order it here.
“‘It Follows’ paints a picture of someone trapped in a cycle of emotional pain and trauma,” says Owens. “They can’t break free from the patterns that continually bring them back to a place of hurt and despair, struggling with the weight of past experiences.”
Regarding the album as a whole, Owens states, “Until God Shows is a high energy, and fun ride through the rollercoaster world of D.R.U.G.S. Complete with a backstory, and art to bring every sound and feeling to life.”
Amen to all of that! It is a welcome return for D.R.U.G.S.
The band has also confirmed a record release show at the Chain Reaction in Anaheim on October 10. Get tickets here.

Having now surpassed 10 million cumulative streams, the band’s previous album DESTROY REBUILD offered listeners the uniquely nostalgic D.R.U.G.S. sound they had been craving while also exploring new territories, marking a perfect progression and exciting new chapter for Craig Owens. The aggressive melodies paired with low-tuned guitars and introspective lyrics created a slab of the nostalgic alternative rock sound that we all grew up with and have come to crave. Owens’ knack for creating sincere lyrics shined through while touching on topics like destiny, perspective, and redemption on DESTROY REBUILD. It served as a physical manifestation of the course he has taken in his musical career and encapsulated each step along the way. It was a bright reflection of one’s life and actions, and encouraged the listener to do the same in their own life. The third album UNTIL GOD SHOWS will prove to be yet another step in the ongoing evolution of Craig Owens.
