IN THE WEIGHT: Braun Dabney of CROP | Gear, Grit & Underground Survival

This one had serious gravity. Braun Dabney of CROP hit The Zach Moonshine Show to tear into the band’s crushing album S.S.R.I. and the emotional punch behind it. Sludge, doom, and 90s grit all colliding in tracks like “Alone,” “Formaldehyde,” and “Break.”

We went deep on tone too, fuzz pedals, tube amps, dialing in that filthy low end, and why real heaviness still lives in the gear and the hands that play it. We also got honest about the grind, the struggle of putting on a music festival, surviving as an underground band, and why showing up to local shows actually matters.

No shortcuts. No poser talk. Just riffs, reality, and respect for the underground.
