I love how forward Matt's voice is in the mix. You understand every word he says. In terms of storytelling alone this blows the rest of The National's discography out of the water

Well I know that you know
that you've become the target of this hand
This sounds like a narrator in some western or something, haha

It Never Happened, Sugar Wife and Trophy Wife are kinda boring, but the rest are either solid or
great
My favorite is Fashion Coat

Glad this is getting more love.

The production on this record is perfect. Kind of funny that it's better produced than any of their more musically polished ones

All but the self titled have perfect production imo.

Alligator's too fuzzy
Boxer's really well rounded but less intimate than this
High Violet is crazy overproduced
TWFM is less so but it's a bit too live

The album doesn't really have any bad songs, but feels a little less consistent in terms of atmosphere and theme than I'd like.
And for me, it doesn't really have a single perfect tune, unlike Alligator's Geese, Boxer's Fake Empire, High Violet's Little Faith, or Trouble's Hard To Find. (Though I know I'm alone at that last one.)
Still, a great album and a must have for any National fan.

Dude if Available isn't perfect I don't know what is
Also see Cardinal Song, Slipping Husband, 90-Mile Water Wall, Thirsty, Trophy Wife, Fashion Coat, Patterns Of Fairytales
|

Murder Me Rachael and Sugar Wife are the worst ones on here but still cool
|
| |
Hard To Find is great but there are better songs on TWFM

All the other songs are better tho

It's one of the best ones on the album imo. Worst is probably Pink Rabbits
