Power Drill - Prison & Pills

    


  Power Drill (https://www.facebook.com/powerdrill666) are a 4 piece powerhouse from Lennox Head, a seaside village in New South Wales, Australia. They released Haven A Beer, almost exactly a year ago and followed it up in May with a single titled Vomit ( "a simple song about sinking too many bevs and chundering" which makes one wonder if The Chats have a bunch of older brother out there somewhere). 

  And now they're back with a 6 track ep titled State Of Emergency in which they sing about running from dodgy money lenders, Amyl (nitrate, not ...and the sniffers), MILFS, and absentee PM Scott Morrison. It's a modern day snot nosed joy and you can get it here :  https://powerdrill.bandcamp.com/album/state-of-emergency

  This is the opening song, it's called Prison & Pills...

Sydney to Bris with a car full of drugs A pocket full of pills and a pocket full of nugs The billy in my hand when I see the lights Pedal to the floor it’s time to speed into the night Rip it into gear as the cops are catching up The little Holden Astra can barely keep up They bust down the door and throw me to the ground Been done by the dogs now I’m going to the pound Prison & Pills Hot is the fire in the belly of the beast The food that they serve is too shit to eat Made a deal with the bikies and I lost my toes To get the pills in prison what they say goes Prison & Pills Read it and weep you dogs Prison & Pills
