[edit] Biography

Since Lovedrug's formation in 2001, they have released two full-length albums and three EPs, all of which have been released through the record label The Militia Group to whom they are signed.

Lead Singer, and main song writer, Michael Shepard was quoted as saying "I think the one influence that drives me to this day, is trying really really hard, and failing horribly, at attempting to look like a pig in a blanket."

While on tour with Straylight Run and Sparta in June of 2007, Lovedrug's van and trailer was stolen in Detroit, Michigan. The burnt out shell of their van and trailer was later discovered with all of their equipment stolen. Despite this discouraging and unfortunate event, Lovedrug continued their tour, borrowing Sparta's equipment for the rest of the shows.[1]
