The Drugs were a five-piece Australian alternative rock/concept band. Formed in 1998 by Matt Downey (Ian Baddley) on lead vocals and keyboards; Downey had developed the idea while playing and touring in bands such as Drop City, IntrOverse, BILL and Mr Blonde, desiring an opportunity to incorporate his passion for concept/show bands like TISM, Devo and The Residents.
