Patterson Hood and Mike Cooley have never shied away from the uglier truths of Southern identity and American contradiction, and American Band found them at their most unflinching. Released amid the chaos of the 2016 election cycle, it drew a direct line from the band's deep roots in Muscle Shoals-influenced rock to the front pages of the daily news, a reminder that this is a band that has always believed real music has something to say.

American Band is the 11th studio album by Drive-By Truckers and was released during the tumultuous year of 2016. Its politically charged lyrics reflect those troubled times. The Chicago Tribune called it "one of the band's strongest front-to-back albums." Rolling Stone and NPR deemed it one of the best albums of that year. It is reissued here, in another election year, with a bonus LP of live recordings, updated liners from Patterson Hood and repackaged with archival artwork from Wes Freed. Shadow Wave/Frosted Silver 2 LP. Limited Edition
