THE WAR ON DRUGS return with a new track and news of an autumn North American, European and UK tour....
“[Granduciel’s] influence has become omnipresent in the indie world . . . each element here—the steady, percussive piano; the quivering harmonica—feels necessary and bold, making Granduciel sound more present than ever.” — Pitchfork [BEST NEW TRACK]
