Dragpipe was a rock band from Union City, New Jersey. The band was known for their energetic live performances and developed a local following in North Jersey and across the Hudson River in New York City.[6][5][3] In 2001, the band was signed to Interscope Records after successfully demoing their songs for Twiggy Ramirez and Jason Newsted.[5][3] That same year, alongside other New York City area bands such as Biohazard and Glassjaw, as well as Sacramento band Will Haven, Dragpipe submitted contributions to Driven State - A Quicksand Tribute, a proposed tribute album for the influential New York post-hardcore band Quicksand.[7]

In August of 2002, Dragpipe released their debut (and only) album, Music for the Last Day of Your Life, produced by Dave Sardy (Helmet, Rage Against The Machine, Nine Inch Nails). Following the album's debut, the band produced and released a music video featuring adult actress Tera Patrick for their song "Simple Minded."[8][9] That same year, the band embarked on an East Coast tour and a European tour with Filter.[3] Although their album sold well, the band was released from their record contract soon after the debut release, and they apparently disbanded.
