"Not many months go by without me wishing that Goldenrod still put out records, even though I only own a fairly small proportion of their hefty output. Drug Wars fortunately sound like a band that could have been on that label. Over the course of these four songs they fuse together the San Diego sounds of Drive Like Jehu with something else that I can't quite put my finger on (oh wait, it's Hot Snakes), to create some driving punk rock muck." - Collective Zine UK
"Intelligent, unpredictable melodic lines, irregular rhythms, time signatures...a huge bass sound that's waving around, you can hear each hit...like someone is really pounding on the strings, getting this metallic twang on every note. The buried vocals are where this essentially works, the yelling and energy never gets too abrasive, or overpowering the music itself...again it's messing with the standard arrangement, subtly...lyrics, like song titles are pretty interchangeable...if you want to get down to that level and read my diary...well go ahead, but it's not necessary to get it right away. But it's there to take this to the next level. It's about the music, everyone's contribution." - 7 i n c h e s Blog
"9846 is the debut EP for Drug Wars, a four-piece hardcore band from San Diego, California. The black vinyl 7-inch had a limited pressing of 500 copies in August, and contains two songs. "98" is the A-side, and "46" is the B-side track. Both tracks are fast-paced lo-fi punk rock that is reminiscent of early Dead Kennedys recordings. Currently unsigned and not touring, Drug Wars is hopefully in the studio putting together a full-length release their own. If they're not, it'd be an awful waste. Rating: 3/5" - Wonkavision Magazine
