Are a Drag

Me First and the Gimme Gimmes tackle cover songs with reckless punk energy on Are a Drag, released through Fat Wreck Chords. The band strips unlikely material down to its hardcore essence, transforming everything from standards to novelty hits into three-minute demolition jobs. Their irreverent approach to punk covers—treating each song as a vehicle for maximum velocity and attitude—defined their cult appeal across the label’s roster.
