Was available to download for free from itunes at a time, unsure if this is still possible... probably costs money now that their fanbase has grown so much.
@WilliPatton So you got something against "religious climaxes" to songs? I love both bands. arcade fire is more emotional and passionate in my opinion though
where almost every song the arcade fire does attempts some kind of religious climax, these guys convey emotion with class and restraint. i find something new every listen, and they don't have to shove it down my throat. i love it.
TOTBL ? Turn on the bright lights By interpol ? If you mean that, they are so different in genres even tho theyre both under Post punk revival but oh w/e, I love both of em :)
@Stull92 The national had poor first albums and then they started to make amazing albums Interpol had amazing first 2 albums and then they went downhill repeating the same stuff over again
I think i'm in love with their music..I've been waiting for them for twenty-nine years..
11 years later and here I am repeating that feeling in 2019. At least I only had to wait 28 years.
If you're gonna talk smack about a great band like The National, at least have the decency to use spell checker.
Matt's cute.
I've been in love with there music. last 10 years 7/24 364 They are my bomb shelti

this is the first time i heard any of them speak...it's interesting hearing matt's speaking voice in comparison to his singing.

I'm a huge fan of both...i find interpol more interesting musically and the national superior lyrically...although the national move me more live...
no spandex pants, eh? that guy has clearly never spent much time with the dessner brothers.
Great stuff!
@WilliPatton I don't agree, they are both equally great
I think Boxer about ties with TOTBL. But the rest of it is true.
What's the song playing from the beginning?
the old Brian Eno quote! beautiful things come from shit !

The first album wasn't their best but everything after that has been mustard.

Alligator > TOTBL

High Violet > TOBL
You can deny it, but you would be wrong.
When The National was awesome
They still are awesome.
