Portland Maine hard rock band Drivetrain has just unbottled a fiery second single from their new album Muscles Big entitled “Bottle Up”. It will be featured on the CD insert in the March 2019 issue of Classic Rock Magazine #259.

“Drivetrain play thick, tough-as-nails rock’n’roll that sounds like a thousand Harleys all revving up at once. All their songs are about drinking and punching holes in walls, which is what they do all day”

—The Sleazegrinder, Classic Rock Magazine

Fans of sweaty, stompin’ 70s and 80s-style hard rock can listen to “Bottle Up” on all streaming platforms or on YouTube, linked below:

Drivetrain will be playing shows throughout the spring in support of their new album including dates with British classic metal band, Airforce—featuring Doug Sampson formerly of Iron Maiden—and New England stoner rock legends, Scissorfight.

Formed in 2015, Drivetrain is a full-throttle hard rock band with the swagger of early AC/DC and Guns N’ Roses and the modern bombast of Clutch delivered with a double shot of bottom-shelf bourbon and a healthy dose of ironic wit. These four Maine boys bring the hot n’ sweaty stomp of the 70s- and 80s-style hard rock to the frosty tip of the northeast USA. Don’t miss ’em when they bring their brand of motorized muscle to your hometown!
