We were particularly delighted to get an e-mail from Secretly Canadian yesterday with details of the new War On Drugs album titled Future Weather . The record follows their debut release Wagonwheel Blues , which was a truly brilliant record mixing straight up US rock with experimental folk and psychedelia, and was one of our favourites of 2008. In fact we had to buy it twice as our new puppy munched the first copy when the postman put the package through the cat flap instead of the post box. Anyway, [...]
The War On Drugs are set to release their forthcoming album, 'Future Weather', on October 28th via Secretly Canadian. It looks as if the album has eight tracks, including the first single, "Comin' Through"...so hopefully this means quality over quantity.

[MP3] The War on Drugs - "Comin' Through" For awhile, The War on Drugs existed as a mysterious band hidden behind an unearthly sounding albeit well-crafted debut LP, Wagonwheel Blues and an unpredictably boundless track "Needle in Your Eye." It was that track that defined this band for us at Stark. It was unlike anything coming out at that time: the sound was as large as Arcade Fire, but as dirty and raspy as Jay Reatard birthing a child with Pavement. That was 2008. How far have they [...]

The War On Drugs won us over back in 2008 after we discovered the band's debut release, Wagonwheel Blues . We described them as "Bob Dylan fronting a shoe-gaze band" back then. "Comin' Through" was just released and I'm hearing some Mark Knopfler (Dire Straits) in the guitar work. The follow up has been a long time coming, but it's almost here. Future Weather will be released on October 26th and I have no doubt that it will be outstanding. "Comin Through" has me salivating for the full LP. The War [...]

It was a sunny July day in Chicago. After a long night of festivities following the opening day of Pitchfork Festival, Adam and Mike from The War On Drugs, myself, and some colleagues here at the label dragged ourselves and our hangovers up to Wrigleyville to see the Cubbies play. The Cubs lost that day, [...]

There's a handful of records that I'm looking forward to hearing in the coming months. At the top of my wish-list is Future Weather , the forthcoming record from The War On Drugs due October 28th on Secretly Canadian . The release comes over two years since their last (and fantastic) release Wagonwheel Blues . Here's hoping the band comes through Wisconsin in support of the record. Take a listen to "Comin' Through" from Future Weather [...]
Philly's The War on Drugs are headed by Oakland transplant Adam Granduciel and also feature Philly own space forklifter, Kurt Vile . Of course, they also feature Philadelphia's best space out and drive tunage. Back before some fine Philadelphians un-car-ed me , nothing pleased me more than blasting 20082s stunning Wagonwheel Blues while I sped over the Girard Point Bridge as it framed Philly's skyline (pictured, courtesy of PhillySkyline ). On October 26, they have a new 8 song EP coming out, Future Weather , on Secretly Canadian. [...]

"comin through" is the first release off future weather, and the other two tracks are from wagonwheel blues which again, i cant recommend enough. [...]

Although Kurt Vile may be recognized by many as a multi-talented musician, (Kim Gordon even mentioned him in an interview for Women’s Wear Daily), in Ottawa, his biggest fan base is consisted of less than 50 attendees. Having played Babylon on July 21st, with band Real Estate, this show would not be one to be missed in most cities where good music was appreciated, but in Ottawa, Ontario, the turnout is kind of dismal. The members of Real Estate were about 40 minutes late showing up as they were caught in traffic on their way into town. [...]
The War on Drugs have recorded a session for Daytrotter. The band played three songs from their debut album "Wagonwheel Blues". You would think by now they would have released a new album. The setlist for the sessionis below. You can listen to the session here.... Click the link to read more
