"“almost done making a record, and we're close to the end.” Granduciel said that part of his motivation this time around was “to do something that's not different, necessarily, in terms of the way it sounds, but something that's trying to get back to the first couple of records I made.”"
"“So it's basically fully homemade,” Granduciel continued. “I mean, people always joke because I'm like, 'I want to make a homemade record.' And they come to my house and my studio is, like, vintage API and all my Neve stuff...and they're like, 'This is a homemade record?!'”"
"“But the only way I could do this record is if I had all the time and the access to be able to do it the way I want. So, it's coming along, but I just work on it all the time. It still sounds like a band, but there's all sorts of stuff.”"
"Along with teasing the new album, the band has begun to flesh out their upcoming tour schedule. That includes the announcement of new headlining dates in Wilmington, Asheville, and Birmingham, and Las Vegas, to go along with a string of festival appearances. Tickets for these new shows are on sale starting Friday, May 15th at 10 a.m. local time via Ticketmaster."
The War on Drugs is preparing a new album after a multi-year gap. Adam Granduciel said the band is almost finished making the record and close to the end. The motivation is to create something that is not necessarily different in sound, but aims to return to the feel of the first early records. The album is described as fully homemade, using Granduciel’s vintage API and Neve equipment, and requiring time and access to work in the way he wants. The record is expected to sound like a band while including additional elements. The band is also announcing new headlining dates in Wilmington, Asheville, Birmingham, and Las Vegas, alongside festival appearances, with tickets going on sale May 15 via Ticketmaster.
