Album Review: The War On Drugs - Lost In The Dream

So, it turns out Slave Ambient was just hinting at the raw power Adam Granduciel could convey through music. He's been touring that album non-stop for three years, and Lost In The Dream is quite obviously a culmination of Granduciel's growing connection with his band and confidence in his sound. The result is spectacular. Part amped-up Dylan (obviously), part synthy '80s road album, there's just so much substance it'll take you a couple of listens to feel the full weight of it. This is a moving, enchanting album.
