a member of the subculture based around the art/music collectives drain gang and sadboys. “drain” has unique, dream-like, and ethereal visuals and sound loosely inspired by the early 2000’s, scene culture, and EDM/trance music. it promotes a spiritual and existential lifestyle and is, to many, a refreshingly stark contrast to mainstream trap. it has rapidly grown in popularity over the years and heavily inspires the current state of the underground movement on SoundCloud.
the term gained popularity as a meme on 4chan’s /mu/ and /fa/ boards, yet it somehow quickly gained traction among attention seeking egirls on discord, roblox, and instagram and has since become even more of a meme.
