Drenge are an English two-piece alternative rock band made up of Eoin Loveless, on guitar and vocals, and his younger brother Rory, on drums. The brothers grew up in Castleton, Derbyshire, where they formed the band in 2011, relocating to Sheffield in 2014. The band take their name from something "that would sound like a noise that we would be playing onstage." Their name also translates into "Boys" in Danish. They have released two albums, Drenge (2013) and Undertow (2015).
Drenge is the self-titled debut album by British band Drenge. It was released on 19 August 2013 on Infectious Records. The album reached #39 on the iTunes charts upon its release.
The album received mostly positive reviews with Clash Music describing the album's use of a "brand of raucous, nihilistic, grungy garage punk" as "thrilling", as well as stating that "The thrashing energy [heard in earlier tracks] does relent somewhat towards the end, yet this remains an impressive introductory manifesto."
Their single 'Bloodsports' was nominated for Zane Lowe's 2013 Top 100 Hottest Records.
The artwork for this album features a photograph of Wardsend Cemetery in Sheffield and a nearby scrapyard.
