EVERYTHING OLD IS NEW AGAIN

A CONVERSATION WITH ADAM RAMEY

OF DROPOUT KINGS

Last time I caught up with Adam Ramey of Dropout Kings was right before their track "Virus" came out. That song went on to much success at radio and propelled the band to a new level. Rising out of Phoenix with a fresh twist on a throwback sound, Dropout Kings quietly began making waves after releasing their debut album AudioDope in 2018, leading Metal Injection to hail them as one of "5 Bands That Prove Nu Metal Is Back" and Alternative Press anointing them as one of the "10 Bands Who Are Crushing The Stereotypes You've Heard About Nu Metal.”

Their GlitchGang EP featured “Virus” and the band came out of the backside of the pandemic with a fervor for hitting the road and winning over audiences through non stop touring and explosive live shows. Fans have been eating up their music which takes elements of Linkin Park, KoRn and Deftones and fuses them with new school trap music.
