Destroy Rebuild Until God Shows (abbreviated as D.R.U.G.S.) was an American post-hardcore supergroup, formed in 2010. They released their debut self-titled album on February 22, 2011.
The band was formed in late 2009/early 2010, after Craig Owens was let go by Chiodos. The band's members were announced in several YouTube video updates on Craig Owens' official YouTube page. The band's members included vocalist Craig Owens (Chiodos), drummer Aaron Stern (Matchbook Romance), guitarist/vocalist Nick Martin (Underminded), guitarist/vocalist Matt Good (From First to Last), and bassist Adam Russell (Story of the Year). The band played their first live shows to sold out crowds at the Pike Room inside The Crofoot in Pontiac, MI on November 28 and 29, 2010.
On November 11, 2010, D.R.U.G.S. released their first song, "If You Think This Song Is About You, It Probably Is." On December 6, 2010, they released their second song, "Mr. Owl Ate My Metal Worm." This was followed by "Sex Life", released on January 18, 2011, which is the first single from the album.
On January 31, 2011, D.R.U.G.S. released their fourth song off of their self-titled album, "My Swagger Has a First Name" to all those who pre-ordered the album. The band's debut self-titled album was given a release date of February 22, 2011, through Decaydance/Sire Records.
The band headlined a 7-date tour of the UK between March 4–10, 2011, and headlined the Alternative Press Tour with Black Veil Brides and supporting acts VersaEmerge, Conditions and I See Stars, between March 18–April 29, 2011.
D.R.U.G.S. played main stage on the 2011 Vans Warped Tour for the entirety of the tour, with the exceptions of July 17, 19, and 21st. Vocalist Craig Owens stated that the band would not play those three dates due a prior commitment he made to be on set for the movie K-11. Owens also stated that D.R.U.G.S. would make up those three dates as well as give away merchandise and a special meet and greet and advised fans that were supposed to go those shows to keep their ticket stubs.
