VINYL PREORDERS UP NOW GET YOURS!

"Intensity. Unpredictability. As any good punk band worth their weight in pills, Adderall has an energy that could never be harnessed.


On “Vs. Big Pharma” - Adderalls’ debut EP - they allow their energy to flow freely. The guitars go left when I expected right, the bass went up when it should be down, the vocals come in when I least expected, and the drummer is changing tempos whenever the damn-hell-well they please. And I wouldn’t have it any other way. From the very first notes on this record, which I thought were going to be mid-tempo, Adderall kept me guessing. Punk music is live music. Punk is energy which could never be harnessed, nor would I ever want it to be. Recording is an attempt to capture that energy, but all to often a bands intensity is harnessed rather than captured. But Adderall refuse - keeping the energy high and the predictability low.


Once one digs past the wall of energy on this record, the influences one picks up on become vast. Spanning regions and decades. One might be tempted to label this record a “slime punk” record or some other goofy modern day label. But it aint that easy. Undeniably North Carolina punk, but with riffs that are straight out of the 80’s Great Lakes Midwest , drums which have been echoing through Appalachia for decades, and a more modern vocal style which crawled out of a dirty, region-less basement; Adderall are hard to pin down. So why try? Simply put, Adderall Vs. Big Pharma is a ripping hardcore punk record.


I just got back from a walk in which Adderalls’ new record was playing in my headphones. This is a thing I do. A fantasy no doubt, but as I walk among the squares with unharnessed energy blasting in my ears, I feel as if I am the sole holder of a secret world. The squares could never hack it in this secret world Adderall painted in my head. FAR too intense and unpredictable - the rush would be too much for them. I felt as if I had a secret drug in my possession. An intensity that could never be cut down to milligrams, an unpredictability which could never be prescribed, and an energy which Big Pharma could never harness into a pill.


Adderall is energy unharnessed. "
