The War On Drugs

The War On Drugs "Red Eyes" from 'Lost In The Dream' out now on Secretly Canadian

[charliethompson]

Riding backwoods in Kentucky drinking a cold one and jamming on this one. Sun is out, sky blue. Temp perfect. So beautiful

[thomas_walker]

This whole album is absolutely killer.

[luannimal]

Just went through finding out i have cancer and 12 months of chemo to look foreward to and this song actually made me feel better

[ginormousbones]

Their music definitely should be listened to while driving, or on a road trip. Can’t get enough.

[bruckers]

Imagine looking for "that one song" you heard but you couldn't remember any lyrics to it, nor how it really went but you knew it was a banger and you liked it and you just couldn't really ever recall it ... almost like it was part of a dream...


And then you find it....


Yeah. That was me just now.

[zanytobbs]

I must listen to this band the next time I go on a road trip, I always imagine driving by a sunset while I listen to this!

[ClarkyNZ]

We are so lucky to be alive at the same time as this band. What an incredible reverb drenched soundtrack to hang our memories on!

[JBG-uphy]

As far as 21st century rock music goes, you honestly won't here a better riff than this. It's roaring but emotional at the same time - so, so difficult to create something like this. An absolute masterpiece

[andy]

Everytime I hear that first "Wooah" in the car, I hit the gas!

[motorcaster]

This is a truly outstanding band and I am just finding out about them... I am 62 and I just haven't heard anything new that spoke to me with exception of Rival Sons and Greta Van Fleet in the last several but this is a thinking band with cryptic lyrics... and that really sends me... I have listened to about 5 songs and like every one of them... I heard "Pain" playing as I went into the grocery store and shazamed it.... It is quite an unusual song to be used in a public playlist but I am glad it was playing....

[bryantrulen]

2018 September I was listening to this 24/7 while walking my dog on Friday evenings after dark/after I got off work. Preparing a wedding in the coming weeks. Imagining what the future would hold. 8 months later divorced. Now, 5 plus years later I am listening to this song again, feeling it deeply in my body on this Friday night after dark. Life will fuck you up but music will always be there for you. 🙏

[JamesAlee-notq]

This song will definitely be on the Top 100 chart 100 years from now (since 2023)

[erk]

I truly think that if the war on drugs were a band in the 70s they would have a much bigger impact on music. They have their own sound, they make great music, and they’re legitimately talented.

[per]

This song is like the ultimate mood reset button. Listening to it just once can literally make any day for me.

[markvanvreckom]

When Waterboys meets Neil Young meets Bruce Springsteen. Every song is a masterpiece of delicacy

[C.o.m.m.u.n.i.c.a.t.o.r]

Come and see
Where I witness everything
On my knees
Beat it down to get to my soul
Against my will
Anyone can tell it's you coming
Baby don't mind
Leave it on the line, leave it hanging on the rail
Come and ride away
It's easier to stick to the old
Surrounded by the night
Surrounded by the night and you don't give in
But you abuse my faith
Lose it every time, but I don't know where
You're on my side again
So ride the heat wherever it goes
I'll be the one to care
You're all I've got, wait
Don't wanna let the dark night cover my soul
Well, you can see it through the darkness coming my way
Well, we won't get lost inside it all again
Oh, my mind
No one sees me, I'm out here waiting
They don't mind that I'm here, I hear
Throw the bad away, and your mind against it
I would keep you here, but I can't
Oh, I'll talk to you when I make my way back
I don't see it over there where I come from, yeah
Lost and you're hurt again
The easy way to cover my sin
Don't want another dark time to think to myself
We won't get lost inside it all, you're on my way
Well, I can see it in the darkness combing my mind
Well, we can hear the voices war inside
Yeah, and you won't get lost inside it all
You're on my way

[tenlmao]

I want to drive 200 mph at night listening to this

[Lauren-qzfg]

don't know why, but i feel nostalgic listening to this song

[AlbMonk]

I love the old dancing couple in this video. They look like they are genuinely having fun.

[averylangs]

Happy 10 years to this beautiful, uplifting song and the fantastic album it's from.
