Lead singer Jay Bellaud’s vocals are perhaps the most striking aspect of Purge d.i. and serve as the band’s trademark. Bellaud’s spooky vocals sometimes resemble those of Tool front man Maynard in his timing and timber. Keith Cuscia plays both lead and rhythm guitar and manages to set the foundation as well as blasting through the wall of sound built up by drummer Bob Austin and bassist Randy Ladd. Purge d.i. merges contemplative lyrics with the heavily pulsing rhythm to produce a disc suited for both raging road trips and a listening through headphones in a darkened room.
When formed in early 1996, no one would have guessed that an original act (from New Hampshire no less) would have the fortitude to go the distance. Quickly establishing a solid reputation in New Hampshire clubs, Purge d.i. found themselves garnering enough attention to land opening slots with many National Acts. Over the next few years while making their local rounds, Purge d.i. has shared the stage with bands such as Fuel, Godsmack, Days of the New, Slipknot, Linkin Park, and Disturbed to name a few. At one of these shows Ass-9 Records A&R recognized the unprecedented talent and intensity of Purge d.i. on stage. It was that chance meeting that ultimately led to the signing between Ass-9 Records and Purge d.i. in July of 2002.
In early 2003, through the collaboration of Ass-9 Records and Black Dog Promotions it seems there is no stopping the Purge d.i. machine. With the release of their National Debut LP, "Grounded" supported by a national tour, national retail placement with major chain stores, national commercial radio, an MTV 2 video on deck and a full-scale endorsement from Adidas, it seems Purge d.i. has "household name" locked in their crosshairs!

누가 봐도 내가 좀 죽여주잖아 (alright)
둘째가라면 이 몸이 서럽잖아 (alright)
넌 뒤를 따라오지만 난 앞만 보고 질주해
네가 앉은 테이블 위를 뛰어다녀 I don't care
건드리면 감당 못해 I'm hot, hot, hot, hot fire
뒤집어지기 전에 제발 누가 날 좀 말려
옷장을 열어 가장 상큼한 옷을 걸치고
거울에 비친 내 얼굴을 꼼꼼히 살피고
지금은 여덟 시 약속시간은 여덟 시 반
도도한 걸음으로 나선 이 밤
내가 제일 잘 나가
내가 제일 잘 나가
내가 제일 잘 나가
내가 제일 잘 나가 (제-제-제일 잘 나가)
내가 봐도 내가 좀 끝내주잖아 (alright)
네가 나라도 이 몸이 부럽잖아 (alright)
남자들은 날 돌아보고 여자들은 따라해
내가 앉은 이 자리를 매일 넘봐 피곤해
선수인척 폼만 잡는 어리버리한 player
넌 바람 빠진 타이어처럼 보기 좋게 차여
어떤 비교도 난 거부해 이건 겸손한 얘기
가치를 논하자면 나는 billion dollar baby
뭘 좀 아는 사람들은 다 알아서 알아봐
아무나 잡고 물어봐 누가 제일 잘 나가?
내가 제일 잘 나가
내가 제일 잘 나가
내가 제일 잘 나가
내가 제일 잘 나가 (제-제-제일 잘 나가)
누가? 네가 나보다 더 잘 나가? (hey)
No, no, no, no
Na, na, na, na (brr)
누가? 네가 나보다 더 잘 나가? (hey)

Oh, my God
The lyrics of Purge d.i.'s song "I am" are incredibly vulgar and misogynistic. The artist boasts about his sexual conquests with multiple women and objectifies them by referring to their bodies and genitalia in derogatory ways. He even goes as far as comparing one of his associates to a notorious terrorist and drug addict, as a way to further glamorize his reckless and immoral behavior.
Despite the offensive language and content, the song seems to be a commentary on the rapper's lifestyle and his perception of power and status. He brags about his wealth, his ability to satisfy women and his disregard for social norms or moral constraints. He also implies that his associates share his views and engage in similar behaviors, which contributes to their sense of community and belonging.

@derkwest
Does anyone know where i can find info on this band? Ive loved them since i was real young but i all i can find is 2 cds and no info really at all. Like do they still play? Or do they have more than 2 cds? Or what does the d.i. after purge stand for? Any help would be great thank you
@tyboxasaurus
They do not still play. I don't thing they had much more then that. The d.I was put there to make sure they didn't get a lawsuit because there was another band or company named Purge
@XJmpTheFckUpX
These guys were awesome. They don't play anymore but a few of the members have their own band now. The singer, Jay is in my band "Chasing the Devil" It's a super group from Southern NH. The lead guitarist and bassist are from Dogfight, and the drummer is from Caster and Ballast. Going to be releasing the first single within the next month and the first show is July 15th @ The Angel City Music Hall in Manchester. Cheers.
