Drug Church Drop 'Pynch' Single

By Brenna Ehrlich Brenna Ehrlich Contact Brenna Ehrlich on X Contact Brenna Ehrlich by Email View all posts by Brenna Ehrlich March 12, 2026 Drug Church Elliott Ingham Drug Church usually drop songs about down-on-their luck kids, blue collar strivers, and jealous folks intent on dragging their compatriots down. With “Pynch,” though, singer-songwriter Patrick Kindlon gets (almost) sweet. “It’s as close as we’ve ever come to a love song,” he said in a statement. “This one is about meeting someone who won’t allow you to be a loser forever.”  In an accompanying video featuring footage from the band’s recent tour with the Deftones, the band lets lose a riffy yet (almost) tender rager in which Kindlon avoids a fate of dying alone on a park bench after holding “the future up to my eyes” and realizing he has a good thing going. “Many of our songs are written through the lens of another person,” Kindlon tells Rolling Stone. “Someone I know or have witnessed in whatever way. But this one is played straight. I’m the character and the song is about trying not to squander my blessings.” The hardcore frontman got married not long ago, so those blessings are definitely bountiful.

Now She’s Making a ‘Beautiful Comeback’ Drug Church dropped their most recent record, Prude, in 2024, a hooky, loud rumination on finding purpose, fighting the devil to follow your path, and the people who drift away along the way. The band started in 2011 as a side project, Kindlon’s main act being Albany hardcore band Self Defense Family. New music from both projects are on the horizon. “[The band] records the song, then I just put on headphones, listen two or three times, and then I write those lyrics,” he told Rolling Stone back in 2024. “And that’s not because I’m a genius; I can only really work if I know we’re losing money. I just have to have pressure.” Apparently, the pressure is now on.
