Drive-By Truckers have shared a new track, the powerful and poignant What It Means, from their much-anticipated new album, American Band, due out on 30th September via ATO Records.

Describing the song, Patterson Hood said “it’s a song I wrote a couple of years ago protesting the Ferguson decision and the Trayvon Martin killing. Unfortunately, the song is still timely today. I hope and pray that one day it won’t be.”
