Emerging from New York City's thriving scene of twenty-something rockers, Retail Drugs funnels Jake Brooks' early adulthood experiences through layers of fuzz, distortion, and guitars that land somewhere between grunge and noise. Throwing himself into the city's storied community of rock enthusiasts as soon as possible, Brooks has spent the last 2 years writing, recording, and playing every DIY show that came his way. Now, Retail Drugs' prolific discography is available for it's first-ever widespread physical release via Fire Talk Records' emerging artists imprint, Angel Tapes. 'i love you so !' takes a decidedly lo-fi POV, and presents a startlingly assured debut statement from Retail Drugs.
