The War on Drugs

On June 7, 2015, The War on Drugs performed live at the Days Off Festival, a fascinating moment during their career. At this time, the band had just released their critically acclaimed album, 'Lost in the Dream,' in 2014. This album really elevated their profile, showcasing rich, atmospheric soundscapes paired with introspective lyrics. Performing 'Under the Pressure' at such a vibrant venue highlighted their growing ability to connect with an audience, blending rock and indie influences effortlessly. Fun fact: the band's nearly cinematic style draws many comparisons to 80s rock icons, giving their modern sound a nostalgic twist. By 2015, they had firmly established themselves as a significant force in the indie rock scene, making this live performance not only crucial for fans but also for cementing their reputation.
