Description
Dirty Rotten Imbeciles (also known as D.R.I.) are a hardcore punk/thrash metal band formed in Houston, Texas in 1982. Current line-up comprises founding members vocalist Kurt Brecht and guitarist Spike Cassidy, as well as drummer Rob Rampy and bassist Harald Oimoen. DRI integrated hardcore punk roots with thrash metal influences was a stylistic catalyst for their contemporaries—most notably Agnostic Front, Corrosion Of Conformity, Verbal Abuse, Cro-Mags, Dr. Know —alongside whom they are considered pioneers of what would later be called “crossover”. This subgenre was also coined from their 1987 album “Crossover”. To date, D.R.I. have released 7 albums. Since then, the band has continued touring and intermittently going on hiatus. In 2004, D.R.I. released a web-only demo track “Against Me”, their first recording in a decade.
