The War On Drugs' fourth album A Deeper Understanding is officially out.

Following the release of tracks such as "Thinking of a Place" and "Holding On," the full record has been released. The band had also been streaming the album earlier this week on its website.

This marks their first full-length since 2014's Lost in the Dream, which was among Variance's Best Albums of 2014.

As we previously mentioned, the band will also be hitting the road this fall in support of the album.
