The War on Drugs Return with "Who's That," First New Studio Recording in Four Years

The five-minute song was written and produced by Adam Granduciel and arrives as the band works on a follow-up album and a U.S. tour.

  • On Wednesday, The War on Drugs released "Who's That," their first new studio recording since 2022, paired with a music video directed by Max Flick.
  • Frontman Adam Granduciel wrote and produced the five-minute track at his Burbank, California studio, explaining it was "written in 10 minutes" between daily routines.
  • Bandmates Anthony LaMarca and David Hartley contributed instruments to the track; director Max Flick captured the accompanying visual during a surreal late-night walk through Burbank streets.
  • The release arrives as the group works on a follow-up to their 2021 album, which Granduciel previously described as "basically fully homemade."
  • Touring begins on September 18 in Wilmington, Delaware, with dates spanning fall festivals including the Austin City Limits Music Festival in October.
