The War On Drugs by Shawn Brackbill
The War On Drugs have set it for release on September 30th.
The War On Drugs have unveiled a new, deluxe box-set of their 2021 album I Don’t Live Here Anymore, adding two previously unheard tracks entitled Oceans Of Darkness and Slow Ghost.
Those will be presented as a 7″ single on the 180-gram double vinyl edition, while a cassette tape version is also to be made available for an album which Live4ever described as, ‘a record of fulfillment, written by a man who’s quietly risen to a fame he’s not sure he wants‘:
“Fatherhood has keenly developed the singer’s appreciation of legacy – on Change he reflects on a life ‘running from the white light’ whilst a piano leads softly. ‘Maybe I was born too late’, he broods , a man out of time in an era which defaults only to superficiality, a reticent haze which passes on to the muscular backdrop of I Don’t Wanna Wait.”
“Elsewhere, The War On Drugs have rarely been so alive; Victim scampers along like an even more melodramatic Boys Of Summer; Wasted is a bittersweet, sunsetting apex; closer Occasional Rain is a country-infused slow dance for fast times; Rings Around My Father’s Eyes an exquisite, lighter-ready ballad.”
