About D.R.I.
Biography The DIRTY ROTTEN IMBECILES' history begins on May 2, 1982 around 4:00pm, in the city of Houston, TX. It was on this day that the musically aggressive quartet we now know as D.R.I. made their first Dirty Rotten noise and called it a song. Back then it was Spike Cassidy (guitar), Kurt Brecht (vocals), Eric Brecht (drums), and Dennis Johnson (bass). The group started practicing at Kurt and Eric's pa...See More Description Dirty Rotten Imbeciles (also known as D.R.I.) are a United States hardcore punk/thrashcore/crossover thrash band that formed in Houston, Texas, in 1982. The band currently comprises founding members, vocalist Kurt Brecht and guitarist Spike Cassidy, as well as bassist Harald Oimoen, and drummer Walter Ryan. D.R.I. never gained a mainstream audience, but the integration of their hardcore punk roots with thrash metal influences was a stylistic catalyst for their contemporaries —most notably Suicidal Tendencies, Corrosion of Conformity, and Stormtroopers of Death— alongside whom they are considered pioneers of what would later be called "crossover thrash." This subgenre was also coined from their 1987 album Crossover.

I was into this band 30 years ago and finally got to see them live and I be damned if they weren’t totally spot on with their records of the past. Best time I’ve had in a while. Thanks for coming!

Ok so I’m bias… it’s only because they kept their signature style and sound just like they did 40 years ago. They did not disappoint! Lots of die-hard fans but some younger ones too—which means their style reaches across all ages.

Great! Had not seen them since 1997. They sound exactly the same and the sound in the club was perfect for them. Long live D.R.I. !
