Italian Plastic 14 Posted June 4, 2010 Share Posted June 4, 2010 It's not as interesting as you might think Link to post Share on other sites
ivet 1 Posted June 4, 2010 Share Posted June 4, 2010 It's Sufjan Stevens... and The National. To me, it's quite interesting. Very, very, very interesting indeed. :bomb: I mean, it's Sufjan.... he's like gotta release some new stuff. Sometimes I wonder if he's even alive... :bomb: And fuck man, AAAAHHHGHGLJFljaf;ldja;fjdakf;a /fangirl moment. Funny how I find all this out when my The National binge started yesterday... :shifty: Link to post Share on other sites
Italian Plastic 14 Posted June 4, 2010 Share Posted June 4, 2010 lol. I get you. I was pretty excited too. He's only singing backup though. I could hardly hear him. And yeah, he needs to get a new album out. Link to post Share on other sites
MrMagpie 33 Posted June 4, 2010 Share Posted June 4, 2010 I love how Justin Vernon, Sufjan, and Richard Parry (Arcade Fire) all do backing arrangements on a couple songs. Link to post Share on other sites

crawlinwithin 1 Posted June 10, 2010 Share Posted June 10, 2010 their new album is fantastic, its amazing how each album almost breaks up the band... they're so dysfunctional its great Link to post Share on other sites

fietssleutel 0 Posted June 10, 2010 Share Posted June 10, 2010 I agree with all of you. :heart: Link to post Share on other sites
the_gloaming09 1 Posted June 10, 2010 Share Posted June 10, 2010 I've been listening to High Violet again recently... such a great album! At this point I think it's my 2nd favorite album of the year so far (right behind Teen Dream-Beach House) Link to post Share on other sites
Alice 0 Posted June 10, 2010 Share Posted June 10, 2010 At this point I think it's my 2nd favorite album of the year so far (right behind Teen Dream-Beach House) Same, exactly! Link to post Share on other sites
MrMagpie 33 Posted June 10, 2010 Share Posted June 10, 2010 ^ditto. Although by year end I think it will finish ahead of Teen Dream for me. I would say Arcade Fire have the biggest chance of knocking one of those two albums off teh top of my list. Link to post Share on other sites
deaths_friend 1 Posted June 11, 2010 Share Posted June 11, 2010 the national are live on stage at bonnaroo right now. listen live here http://www.npr.org/templates/story/story.php?storyId=127088792 Link to post Share on other sites

deaths_friend 1 Posted June 12, 2010 Share Posted June 12, 2010 The National set in one word - Spellbinding (yes thats one word now) but they played a fairly short set by bonnaroo standards. most of the older bands at the festival are playing 2hr shows at least. Link to post Share on other sites
fietssleutel 0 Posted June 12, 2010 Share Posted June 12, 2010 Yeah, but performances at Bonnaroo are full sets only, right? 90 minutes is a full set for The National. I only caught the last 40 minutes, but loved it (as usual). High expectations for when I'm seeing them next month! :wacky: Link to post Share on other sites
