The National is covered in awesome sauce

If you like The National even a tiny bit, go check out The NY Time's stream of their new album, High Violet. Ordinarily, I'm not smart enough to read The NY Times, but in this case, I'll make an exception. :)

Sounds good so far. Looking forward to being able to buy it on 10 May.

Woo! Thank you for linking this. Can't wait for this to be release.

Also, your Crucifictorious icon is cracking me up. :D

No problem. I've been listening to the stream all weekend and am really liking it.

I also found out recently that they will be in Ireland, in September, but they're playing a festival. As much as I hate to admit, I'm too damn old to go to a multi-day music festival. :)

Hey, just came across this, and just wanted to say thanks for the link to that article. I don't follow music journalism at all, but that was a fantastic article! I've loved The National for years, and only now am I running across people who've actually heard of them. About damn time! I may have squeed a little when I saw this journal entry of yours. ;)
