Music of the Month: August 2017

Album of the Month:
The War on Drugs - A Deeper Understanding (Atlantic) released 8/25
The War on Drugs return with their fourth studio album and it's one of the best releases of 2017. Ranging from the gorgeous synth-work to the driving guitars and solos, this album is a near perfect piece of work. The War on Drugs deliver their most impressive album and have a chance for album of the year.
