Because hyperbole is what the internet thrives on, I’m here to say that White Denim have been the most consistently impressive and hard working band of the past three years. Not a long time period, I know, but since their first album in 2008, Workout Holiday, the band has released three more albums and two EPs to boot. It’s not just the haste with which they work but the incredibly quality as well. “Drug” is the first take from their newest studio album entitled D, due May 24th on Downtown. Purely White Denim, “Drug” is three minutes of southern-fired guitar twang and crashing cymbals. Just one in a long line of hits from the Austin, TX band, but surely not their last. [via]
