The brainchild of guitarist and vocalist Adam Granduciel, The War On Drugs came to be almost a decade ago and has seen it’s share of line-up changes — Kurt Vile was a longtime member — but has consistently created a sort of Americana-meets-Sonic-Youth sound. Last year’s Future Weather EP continued the textured and reverb-heavy style of the Philidelphia band’s slim catalog, with Granduciel’s voice being the connecting force between the miles of guitar noodling.
Denver is lucky to be one of a handful of smaller venue dates for The War On Drugs before the band sets off to SXSW and then jumps on a tour with Destroyer. This show is eighteen and up and tickets are $8. Doors open at 8 p.m., bands start at 9 p.m.
