Guitarist and drum machine musician Dan Auger had this to say about the album?s release, “Last year we lost our drummer and released an EP. By the time that EP was released we had become a different band and that music became irrelevant. We spent the next eight months writing and trying to re-evaluate what we wanted to do as a band. ?ContraVirtual? is the result of those eight months. It represents where we are and where we’re going.”

About:

DRI HIEV is a Calgary noise quartet specializing in creating disorienting music with one foot in modern electronic music and the other in aggressive punk rock.

Three out of four members (Dan Auger, Carter Crough, and Kyle Crough) originally played in Bloody Circuits from Grande Prairie, Alberta, but upon relocating to Calgary they recruited Igor Gvozdenovic and became DRI HIEV. Their live show demands your attention with all members creating a wall of noise while maintaining a steady driving electronic sample to get people moving.

They are going to be touring across Canada with fellow noise enthusiasts Feverfew. DRI HIEV are also releasing their EP “ContraVirtual” on cassette through Shake! Records and Bunghole Records on September 23, 2015.
