Injury Reserve was an American hip-hop group founded in Tempe, Arizona, in 2012. The group consisted of rappers Ritchie with a T and Stepa J. Groggs, alongside producer Parker Corey. In 2015, the group self-released their breakout mixtape, Live from the Dentist Office, to critical acclaim. In 2016, the group released another mixtape, Floss, to further acclaim. Both mixtapes were recorded in a dentist office that belonged to Corey's grandfather. After relocating to Los Angeles in 2017, the group released an EP, Drive It Like It's Stolen, to generally positive reception. The next year, they signed to Loma Vista Recordings for their debut studio album, Injury Reserve, which released in 2019. While their earlier mixtapes were influenced by jazz rap, the group's sound gradually became more industrial and glitch oriented. In June 2020, while recording their second album, Groggs died, aged 32. Throughout 2020, Ritchie and Corey completed the remainder of the album. The group self-released their final album, By the Time I Get to Phoenix, in 2021. The remaining members regrouped as By Storm in 2023.
