The Afghan Whigs new album How Do You Burn? finally arrives in stores and online this Friday, September 9th. The band kicks off their North American tour in support of the new album on Friday in Minneapolis as well.  On Saturday, September 10^th, they will be featured on CBS Saturday Morning performing songs from the new album. Also today, a brand new video for “A Line Of Shots,” makes its debut.

How Do You Burn?, is the band’s ninth album overall and following on from the brace of widely acclaimed records they’ve made previously since re-grouping in 2012, Do to the Beast (2014) and In Spades (2017). How Do You Burn? picks up the baton laid down by each of those records and runs it to the horizon.  Work on it began in September 2020 – the COVID pandemic having forced Whigs frontman/songwriter Greg Dulli to abandon plans to tour his highly praised solo album, ‘Random Desire’ – and continued over the next 14 months.
