The War On Drugs have always been one of the more interesting heartland rock bands in existence and they have always had some of the best songwriting, but something about this new album feels so stale and bland to me. It is nice when it is on, don?t get me wrong, but I am having a hard time really finishing the record because it seems like it?s going nowhere huge. Still good songwriting and execution from the band, but just not feeling this release fully.

Granduciel plays it too safe this time. Victim is like a gust of fresh air on this album, absolutely stellar track.

Adam Granduciel & Co. is one of the simplest forms of rock music that I personally enjoy nowadays.
In this fifth album, The War on Drugs refine rather than reimagine their sound as their 80s soft-
rock and synthpop influences seem more pronounced this time around. The band maintains its
signature sound, that steady rhythmic backbeat, the waves of synths and the melodic guitars which
surround the soul-searching Americana vocals. Similar to previous releases, I Don't Live Here
Anymore is gluttonous of simple hooks and blistering anthems, showing a band full of
confidence at the peak of its career. Recommendations: "I Don't Live Here Anymore", "Harmonia's
Dream", "Victim", "Wasted".

A great American record that tackles softer territories than the band's "traditional" output, making it a more subdued, less enthralling, but ultimately - almost! - as competent as its older brothers.

I can't believe it, I'm so happy to hear new music from these guys. It's been such a shitty month, I'll take any good news.
