Mid-Week Song
The War On Drugs is an indie rock band that formed in Philadelphia a decade ago. Their sound is a mixture of synth, pop and folk, using guitars, keyboards and electronic effects. Their most recent album, "Lost in the Dream," has been described in Village Voice as "the most magnificent album of The War On Drugs' already stellar career," and it's hard not to notice the Dylan-influenced vocals of lead singer Adam Granduciel. The album contains gems, like the ethereal "Under the Pressure," and the Dylanesque closing song "In Reverse." Here's a third cut from that album, the rousing "Red Eyes." Enjoy.
