Starting 2021 off with the most contemporary album they have discussed to date, Chris and Jon do a deep dive into 2014s Lost in the Dream from American indie rock band, The War on Drugs. Upon its release, this album quickly garnered praise from critics, many of whom considered it to be one of the best albums of the year.
Lost in the Dream is a moody, atmospheric, and emotional journey that showcases the talents of prolific singer/songwriter and multi-instrumentalist, Adam Granduciel, and this hauntingly beautiful album has its roots in American folk-rock, synth-rock, 1980s new wave, and psychedelic rock.
