The War on Drugs: A Deeper Understanding 12"  Atlantic Records      

A Deeper UnderstandingisThe War On Drugs'highly anticipatedfollow-up to 2014's universally acclaimedLost In The Dreamand Atlantic Records debut. For much of the three and a half year period since the release ofLost In The Dream, frontmanAdam Granducielled the charge for his Philadelphia-based sextet as he holed up in studios in New York and Los Angeles to write, record, edit, and tinker - but, above all, to busy himself in work. Teaming up with engineerShawn Everett(Alabama Shakes, Weezer), Granduciel challenged the notion of what it means to create a fully realized piece of music in today's modern landscape.

Calling on his bandmates - bassistDave Hartley, keyboardistRobbie Bennett, drummerCharlie Halland multi-instrumentalistsAnthony LaMarcaandJon Natchez- continuously throughout the process, the result is a "band record" in the noblest sense, featuring collaboration, coordination, and confidence at every turn. Through those years of relocation, the revisiting and reexamining of endless hours of recordings, unbridled exploration and exuberance, Granduciel's gritty love of his craft succeeded in pushing the band to great heights.

Pitchforkproclaimed that, "Granduciel's influence has become omnipresent in the indie world" andNPRhas hailedA Deeper Understanding'scrystalline lead singles "Thinking Of A Place" ("epic, mood-shifting guitar jam") and "Holding On" ("a pulsing jam that sounds deeply inspired by '80s-era Bruce Springsteen").
