   About American Draft
With a new album, "Hawk", being released later this year American Draft continue to bring new surprises to all who will listen. Over the last 9-plus years they have defied categorization with a simple devotion to the melting of the faces and strong quality-controlled rock music. Working on material for "Hawk" has brought their focus toward the instrumental-metal genre while creating a sound unique to that of their Chicago instru-metal brethren. For fans of The Fucking Champs, Frank Zappa, Mastodon and King Crimson.


coming soon...

Check out this trailer for a pretty great documentary featuring the musical stylings of American Draft:

You can go fuck your self. If I can have one fucking friend on My (sucking fuck shit ) space and you have to bitch about it?? I am the one person in our whole friend group that NO ONE SUCKS UP TO. Actually I have just realized that not one of my DP "friends" really cares if me OR my family is alive or dead. So go back to your white trash chicken party. And one more thing, None of my friends have me as a "myspace" friend. Im just not that cool. So fuck everyone.

There's no bread, let them eat cake
There's no end to what they'll take
Flaunt the fruits of noble birth
Wash the salt into the earth

Happy Bastille Day Hosers!!!!

Very awesome set Friday. I turned to my pal at least 6 times during the set with the "woah shit" face. And, you guys sounded really well balanced and clean, despite the garbagey room. Shipley, you are a fucking serious technician!! Thanks for the seminar.
