* Album reviews are composed only after a few listens. Yes, opinions may change over time, but most first impressions (un)fortunately seem to hold true. I wish I was creative enough to write a proper review, but I've failed miserably in the past. Here's the next best thing, I hope.
The Drums are set to release a new album, Portamento, on 9/13 via Frenchkiss. Check the album art and tracklist out below, along with a video for the first single, "Money." Also, take a look at some upcoming tour dates.
