DESCRIPTION


Bandbox is honored to present The War On Drugs’s 2020 road chronicle, 'Live Drugs', on stunning 2xLP gold + purple A-side/B-side vinyl. Sporting a tip-on gatefold jacket with holographic artwork for the first time ever, the live record (limited to just 1,000 copies) is accompanied by a TWOD fanzine featuring a lengthy and insightful career-spanning interview with frontman Adam Granduciel, a set of six baseball cards that highlights each member of the arena-rocking indie group, exclusive photography and much more.

'Live Drugs' resides on a higher plane than your average concert album. Culled from dozens of hard drives filled with soundboard audio of the Philadelphia outfit’s 17-country, 65-gig year of touring behind major label debut 'A Deeper Understanding' (2017), this nebulously immaculate anthology boasts transcendent takes of signature TWOD tunes like “Red Eyes,” “Thinking Of A Place” and “Under The Pressure” — without dwelling on where or when the tracks were cut.

What makes the elevated musical reverie of 'Live Drugs' — amplified by a hypnotic brand of heartland rock-meets-motherland shoegaze that hovers somewhere in the stratosphere between “Learning To Fly” and 'Ladies And Gentlemen We Are Floating In Space' — so unique is that hazy sense of universality. It’s not much of a leap to say that, if you saw The War On Drugs in 2017 or 2018, then you were in the building the night they laid down 'Live Drugs.' And now, thanks to this special package from The War On Drugs and Bandbox, you can relive the whole thing.

VIDEO PREVIEW


The War On Drugs - "Under The Pressure" (Live At Pitchfork)

“I was like, ‘Why are we putting this on vinyl and charging?’ Because I want it to be special. I don’t want it to just be one show front to back — ‘Here’s a soundboard with the audience mic’d up… relive the moment.’ I wanted it to feel like a dream, a heightened experience.”

- Adam Granduciel
