Am I just livin' in the space between the beauty and the pain?

Don't think this will ever touch the perfection of Lost In The Dream, but man, it has its moments

I actually think the best songs here are a bit better than those on LOTD (I’ve cooled on “Thinking of a Place” a tad but I’d still say it’s a top 10 song of the decade) but that album is better overall.

I can understand where you're coming from for sure, but pretty much all the songs on Lost In The Dream are ingrained in my mind as deeply nostalgic ingrained favorites, so it's tough to compare. That being said, there are several tunes on this one that are up there with the best on LITD.

LITD is a 5 so I certainly can’t disagree.

Clean living is such a great song, I don't even have the words. I think I almost cried recently when it came up in my car playlist and I've listened to it 60 times.

Honestly I've always though LITD is better and I still kinda do but... man this is starting to hold up really, really well now we're a couple of years down. I've lost count of my listens to Holding On

Are these guys worth checking out if I like Brand New, Modest Mouse, Manchester Orchestra etc? I’ve heard of them but they don’t seem to get too much attention on sput from what I’ve seen.

You could well enjoy them but they have nothing in common with that crowd of bands. War On Drugs are 80s heartland rock (think Tom Petty, Bruce Springsteen) with psychedelic and shoegaze/dream pop influence. Worth a try but I would not recommend them based on those bands specifically.

This album is kind of confounding, and having listened to a few of the songs many times since its release, there's still something really infectious and irresistible about the entire thing.
I used to think it was too safe and self-plagiarizing to be outstanding, but I've been making a summer playlist for this season and genuinely wanted every track on here included.
It's no less than 8/10, and I sort of wish a band like Coldplay would have a fraction of the sincerity and skill from something like this in their newer stuff.

Would be kind of funny if the next War on Drugs continued to not push the envelope but was just another collection of 10 fantastic dream pop/indie stadium rock songs. It'd establish the band as having this really convincing but also one-note formula that had a lot of momentum to keep being successful. They can become the AC/DC of indie rock or something.

You're really defending new Coldplay right now? I hardly thought that would be the part of my comment someone would argue with haha
