    Reminds me of being in the car, as a kid, in the late 90s, early 2000s. In the rain. Driving from Toronto to Montreal, to visit extended family. Dad at the wheel, Mom reading a book. Man do I miss those days. Never knew things would ever get so hard. Thought the jubilation and shear joy of life, family, friends... it was all just a given. I dream about it in my sleep, still. And then I wake up, and try to find a way to make that my life again... not back, but forward. It won't ever be the same. But it might just do.

    Found this band by accident on CZcams (like many people I guess) and started listening to the various tracks on here. Being nearly 70, I obviously don't take to a lot of the computerised music that is created these days. That's ok though, it is just how the world evolves.
    However, this band seem to have that X factor for me. Very original and not just going with the trends. If they have a story to tell, they tell it. Well crafted, well played and just going about their business.
    Having seen many of the legends live back in the 79s and 80s - Deep Purple, Status Quo, Frank Zappa, Santana, Supertramp et al - it was a pleasure to discover these guys and restore my faith in original music. Hope they keep it up for a while yet. I will be listening.

      Hello, Clerk.
      A few years ago, I too, came across this band; trawling the Internet for a "guitar" band. So glad that I did. It combined two things that I wanted: to see the film, Pan's Labyrinth and the aforementioned guitar heavy band. The film was recommended by a Polish friend and the two seemed to connect for myself, mostly due to the artistic brilliance and weirdly they both have a cicada element to them ( in the film there is an insect and the intro to this song has a similar motif. Thought it was meant to be...
      Keep on exploring. It sounds as if you have many amazing memories, as do I and the main thing is to keep making them so they have a reference point and keep them all in perfect clarity.
      Kind Regards,
      J W

Listened to it all the way through, and then again, and again and again, started looking up there music. Found a comment on here about how it stopped a guys depression and stopped him wanting to give up. Never looked back from there on in. On hearing this in that very moment! My life just changed. I cried my eyes out realised changes needed to be made and cracked on with it. The War On Drugs what a band! Helped me massively reading that guys comment that night after hearing this. He said he heard it got into the band and all there music and it helped him and Boy it really helped me if they ever play in the UK I will be there.

    [Verse 1]
    Well, the comedown here was easy
    Like the arrival of a new day
    But a dream like this gets wasted
    Without you
    [Chorus]
    Under the pressure
    Is where we are
    Under the pressure
    Yeah, it's where we are, babe
    [Post-Chorus]
    Oh, you're the only one
    Like an illusion
    [Verse 2]
    When it all breaks down and we're runaways
    Standin' in the wake of our pain
    And we stare straight into nothin'
    But we call it all the same
    You were raised on a promise
    Found that over time
    Better come around to the new way
    Or watch as it all breaks down here
    [Chorus]
    Under the pressure
    [Instrumental Break]
    [Verse 3]
    Well, the break down here
    Stole it all the way across
    I wanna climb downhill
    Stranded on
    When you come here and I'm wasted
    Lyin' on a field, dancin' in the rain
    Hidin' in the back, loosenin' my grip
    Wadin' in the water, just tryin' not to crack
    [Chorus]

    Yeah, it's where we are, babe

    The first time I heard this was at the gym I was working at in the winter 2014, shortly after a bad breakup. The outro caught my attention, so I quickly asked google what track it was and downloaded it. One of the most beautiful discoveries I made, especially considering the rough depression I was experiencing. I soon saw this video one morning on TV before going to work. This song always made me feel so good, almost like it reminded me everything was gonna get better. It really took my mind of self destructive behaviors and suicidal thoughts. It motivated me to do better for myself because I deserved it.
    Years later (2018) I found out that this whole album was one absolute masterpiece. I'm actually sad I missed out on the other songs during 2014-2015, the healing process would have been better.
    Cheers to The War On Drugs.

    I have played bass professionally for many, many years. The singer gets the credit, the guitar gets the glory, but the bass drives the band. The bass player in this band is incredible. If you take out the bass in this band, you won't recognize what you are listening to. So good. Even in the mix the bass is LOUD......wonder why..........

      if you like The War On Drugs you should check out Lonely Gimmick - Stay At Home To Sleep In, it gives me strong War On Drugs vibes and its one of the best new indie songs I've heard

    I'm an old dude, and for decades, my favorite albums were from the 70s and 80s. If you told me back in 2017, that my favorite album ever, was coming out that year, i would have said no way. A deeper understanding moves me in ways i cant describe. Their newer album is pretty damn close too
