fietssleutel Posted November 30, 2010 Share Posted November 30, 2010 :sad: This thread is dying. :blank: But anyway, I took a few photo's at the concert I attended last weekish. In my opinion this is the most interesting and exciting aspect of going to a The National show. :nice: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

deaths_friend Posted December 2, 2010 Share Posted December 2, 2010 listening to Boxer tonight. the national picked the wrong year to release this album. had it been released in any other year it would've done much bigger things but it just had to be released in one of the greatest years in music history, 2007.

MrMagpie Posted December 2, 2010 Share Posted December 2, 2010 Which do you like better: 2007 or 2010? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PolarMonkey Posted December 2, 2010 Share Posted December 2, 2010 i'd say 2010 has been a pretty good year for The National so far. High Violet has been getting a lot of mentions & so far as appeared on a number of "Albums of 2010" lists. haven't really delved into Boxer tho. so far am only familiar with High Violet & Alligator. admittedly i fast tracked listening to Alligator cos i wanted to get to know more of their songs before their gig just this Monday. they had me at Mr November & Abel sealed the deal for me with Alligator (if that statement even made any logical sense at all!).

deaths_friend Posted December 3, 2010 Share Posted December 3, 2010 Which do you like better: 2007 or 2010? 2007. but i havent heard as much music from 07 as i have from 10. 2007 gave us amazing albums from Air, A + J Stone, Animal Collective, Arcade Fire, Arctic Monkeys, Battles, Bon Iver (arguably), Chemical Brothers, Interpol, John Butler Trio, Kaiser Chiefs, Kanye, Klaxons, LCD Soundsystem, The national, The Panics, Sigur Ros, Silverchair and The White Stripes. Mark Ronsons covers album was great too and the Killers were at their peak. oh yeah that band with thom yorke in it made an ok album. so thats a good 20 albums.

deaths_friend Posted January 7, 2011 Share Posted January 7, 2011 seeing these guys tonight at my favourite venue! i'll post a review straight after the show! oh yeah and the wonderful The Middle East are in support. couldn't dream of a better bill. EDIT: cant believe i made the last post on here over a month. i guess we were all so busy putting High Violet near the top/at the top of our end of year lists we forgot about this :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keddie Posted January 7, 2011 Share Posted January 7, 2011 Which do you like better: 2007 or 2010? 2010. High Violet is pure genius in my opinion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Italian Plastic Posted January 7, 2011 Share Posted January 7, 2011 I'm going to say this for the last time. I AM REALLY FUCKING PISSED OFF BECAUSE THE NATIONAL ARE PLAYING 3 FUCKING SHOWS AT A VERY SMALL, STRICTLY R18 VENUE. IN NEW ZEALAND. HOW OFTEN DO THE NATIONAL COME TO NEW ZEALAND? NOT FUCKING OFTEN.

deaths_friend Posted January 7, 2011 Share Posted January 7, 2011 just got back from witnessing something very very special. i've seen a lot of bands in the past year or so, some of them might have put on a better show than these guys but none left such an impact on me. they broke my heart and enlightened me at the same time. more details to follow later in the weekend.

Famous Old Painter Posted January 7, 2011 Share Posted January 7, 2011 Alligator and High Violet are two of my favourite albums of all time. Can't describe em. Never got into Boxer for some reason. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
