The War On Drugs played their first shows in a year at the end of 2019, perhaps an indication that the follow-up to 2017s A Deeper Understanding is on the way. Maybe the band would have gone on tour this year to road-test new material as well, but with COVID-19 keeping everyone at home, that aint happening anytime soon. A pandemic-suppressing quarantine isnt keeping Adam Granduciel from showing off his new tunes, though.<\/p>\n
Starting at 6PM ET, the foremost Warrior On Drugs is logging on to Instagram Live to play some new recordings\/rough mixes through the speakers.
