SoCal’s Dankrupt Release New “Drowning” Music Video

“…truly imaginative… defying categorization, where one might hear elements of funk rock, metal, reggae rock, hard rock and your first teenage acid trip all in one.”- Topshelf Music

“…The New Age Sublime…”- Buzzbands.LA

“… pays homepage the Golden State under a sonic influence of Sublime, Red Hot Chili Peppers with minor musical accents & lyrics that display additional nods from Rage Against The Machine to Ice Cube.”- The Pier

“…captures the Californian spirit…”- Indie Hoy

Southern California’s Dankrupt has dropped a video for the new single “Drowning.”

Of the track and video clip, PopMatters’ Jedd Beaudoin writes: “Drowning works its magic in a little over three minutes, combining the infectiousness of pop with rock’s harder edges. Instantly memorable and eminently hummable, it’s musical brightness belies its lyrical darkness.”

Dankrupt’s Derek Shields says, “It’s an uptempo rock song about the dark side of romance when someone’s in love with a drug addict. Knowing the person they love that’s keeping them going is the same person killing them slowly with each breath. Drowning in a sea of negativity, it has to be either the needle or me.” Describes the harsh reality of the situation one might face when trying to cope with the addictions of a lover, friend or relative. As the opioid epidemic continues many listeners may relate with their own experiences in dealing with the issue of drug abuse. How do you help someone who is unwilling to help themselves without dragging you down with them?”
