Coming back to what feels like their second home, Californian chillers DRAIN are ready to rip once again as part of the gnarly 2025 lineup for New Bloom Fest alongside Basement, Balance & Composure, One Step Closer, Glitterer, and Sweet Pill.

All-round nice bloke Sammy Ciaramitaro drops in to the show to give us the low down on his community’s resolve in the face of natural disasters, the band’s sonic progression across records, the low-end rumblings of their work-in-progress third LP, and why pool noodles in the pit are both a blessing and a (California) curse.
