Drug Church did not start as a side project for singer Patrick Kindlon of Self Defense Family as most people have come to believe. After having released a 3-song demo online in 2011, the band got signed by No Sleep Records by the beginning of 2012. Musically the band mixes hardcore, punk and emo in the style of bands like: Fugazi, Hüsker Dü or Black Flag, with alternative rock elements to create their personal post-hardcore sound. The lyrics to their songs focus mostly on social matters and tend to be dark or satirical. In a Q&A Session on the website of his other project Self Defense Family, Kindlon has stated that he has no pre-written lyrics for his bands and rather writes the songs' lyrics while in the studio: Completely different people write the instrument portion of the music. Leads to a very different feel, so, very different lyrics. Also, I write everything in the studio. So, there’s no bank of lyrics I pull from. This is made to order, not buffet.
