War on Drugs

Guys I've tried listening to this band a few times but nothing sticks. Gimme five songs that will change my mind.

Red Eyes
Brothers
Eyes to the wind
Ocean between the waves
Pain

[Captain Termite]

For those who like "Brothers" and "Best Night," I recommend "Comin Through" from an EP a few years ago. It's one of their best songs, although I recommend the studio version as they do it differently in concert.

As I said previously, I didn't really like "Lost in a Dream" the few times I heard it.

But I put "A Deeper Understanding" on and it almost immediately grabbed me.

The "Pain"-"Holding On"-"Strangest Thing" stretch of songs is what really "hooked" me.

I've tried this too, guess they're just not my thing.

New album is great, but nothing can touch Lost in the Dream for me.

[Hatfield]

Still stuck on Lost in the Dream. I don't know this genre of music that well at all, but it feels like this record influenced some of the choices Wilco made on Star Wars.

You hear many influences on this record, but does everyone else hear Pearl Jam in those guitars at the end of "An Ocean In Between"?

[Strat]

These guys are so good its sickening.

What a show.

[spike]

awesome show

[Zantac Junkie]

Goddamn, what a show. They closed with a cover of Like a Hurricane that blew the roof off the place. Unreal.

what a great fucking cover for them! Perfect.

[Hatfield]

A Deeper Understanding finally sunk in and I can't stop listening. It's replaced coffee. I look forward to falling asleep so I can wake up and listen again.

Holding On is my song of the year!

Hard pressed to find a better 1,2 punch than thinking of a place ---> In Chains, these days.

now this is a post that I can get behind

They are playing 2 Philly shows this month, after none the rest of the year. I would guess more shows to come in 2020 and probably new music too.

Is there any new music coming in 2020?

I kinda like this band

Of you would’ve posted this question three days ago I would’ve unequivocally said yes. But they played zero new songs at the two philly shows that they just played. They did play a ton from slave ambient though.
