Dropping Like Flies To Release New Album “Triggers”

Dropping Like Flies were formed from the breakup of Welsh punk legends 100000 Bodybags, during the Covid-19 lockdowns the band called it a day after 29 years and founding members Simon Cullen and Craig “Brewer” Bruzas continued to write, sneaking time together illegally during lockdown in a kitchen or garage, hiding from nosey neighbours, Covid wardens and hyper alert dog walkers in order to write and rehearse a set of new original material. With bass and drums recorded on twelve new songs in November 2020, during a brief break in totalitarianism, a new guitarist was recruited with Brian Meade, an old school friend who had never played in a band before, joining as the final member of Dropping Like Flies.

After battling Covid lockdown laws and then Covid-19 itself, it wasn’t until August/September 2021 that Dropping Like Flies were able to finally play live together with an appearance at The Landed Festival and over the remainder of the year the band made up for lost time, playing at least 2 gigs every week up to the new year creating a real buzz everywhere they played. At the same time, work was completed on their album with a trio of singles launched and a fa dozen songs mixed and ready to release, their debut full length, Triggers, is now available le for pre-order and will finally be released on August 12th. Dropping Like Flies are now ready to kick on in 2022 and take on the world using a unique mixture of hard rock riffs, insightful political polemic and a warped sense of humour that will either have you laughing out loud or running for cover while covering your Nan’s ears.
