Dope was founded in 1997 and immediately exploded onto the NYC club scene. After only a handful of shows, Dope secured a major label deal with Epic / Flip Records in 1998. The band’s self-produced debut “Felons and Revolutionaries” was released in 1999 and nonstop touring fueled the band’s success. Dope did several national tours with acts likes Slipknot, Sevendust, Mudvayne, Fear Factory, Staind, Static-X, and Kid Rock earning Dope a reputation for being one of the most exciting, young live bands of the new millennium. Dope’s non-stop touring and impressive live performances helped their debut release to SoundScan more than 250,000 units, creating the foundation that they would continue to build on in the years to come.

Little Fish (demo, 1998) Lyrics

Dope

The first time was long ago
It first hurt then I began to roll
The last time was an hour or so
It's that time & I wanna go
I've seen inside of me
This side is everything
I've seen & I'm gonna be
Fuck Rehability
I'm sick or so you say
Live life just for today
It's my life don't fuck with me
Don't tell me what you think
I don't need it
When I was a little fish I would swim through all of this
One time 'bout a year ago
I flat lined but I didn't go
I came late but I made the show
If I didn't tell you, you'd of never known
I've seen so much of thee
Governments hypocrisy
I've laughed at all of thee
Suggested remedies
Methadone at 17
Left Betty Ford to drink
I'll trip on anything
Send me to see a shrink
I don't need it
(Chorus)
It's that time I don't wanna go
Showtime after the show
Rather pass out on the floor
Goes along with rock'n'roll
I've seen 'bout everything
Sex, drugs, sobriety
Been treated for disease
& I've pissed off everything
Accuse me of anarchy
I don't care what you think
I say fuck conformity
I say fuck the USA
I don't need it
