More DREGG More DREGG

After recently picking up management in industry stalwarts Jon Halperin and Adam LaRue, Aussie hardcore outfit DREGG have today announced their signing to major US label, Epitaph Records.

The Melbourne band join the LA-based roster which boasts acts like Bring Me The Horizon, A Day To Remember, The Offspring, Millencolin and fellow Aussies Parkway Drive.

“It’s super humbling to be joining such an innovative yet true to its roots punk label that isn’t afraid to take risks and do things their own way,” DREGG said of joining Epitaph.

“To be added to the list of greats that we grew up listening to is absolutely mind-blowing.


"In the spirit of the culture, it’s refreshing to see a label of such magnitude allowing their artists to have so much creative freedom.

"We’re as excited to be a part of Epitaph records as we are to watch the label grow into the new era of punk we’re endeavouring into.”

To coincide with the signing announce, DREGG have also dropped brand new single, Hectic; check out the video above.

DREGG, who's explosive live sets made them a favourite at BIGSOUND 2019 and who were also set to play this year's cancelled Download Festival, continue to lean heavily into nu-metal and the absurd with the new track, a blistering and loosely biographic takedown on the music industry.
