I would agree with the very general premise that if a band hasn’t done shit by their 3rd album it’s unlikely to change thereafter

probably not controversial

Yeah it is and it laid the foundation but it was their fourth and fifth albums where they took off.

"the national’s third album is literally their best album"

I can't believe I'm actually agreeing with you for once

It’s definitely not even close, but it’s at least good enough to render the take inaccurate on a technicality

kinda based from the development of their eventual superior sound point of view tho

it took the National five records to shake off the shadow of landfill NYC post punk revival, and Boxer was their only album that took that sound in its stride along the way. surviving more than 25 yrs of life on earth and still believing Alligator is their best is an arrested development issue y'all can get someone else to help you with

listening to Natty FOR Alligator just seems like you’re doing it wrong, even if the album is rather good in its own right

Boxer is the National album of choice for people who have given up. if there is still a glimmer of light in your eyes you're going Alligator or TWFM, possibly High Violet

SWB is the underdog and I will always love it for that

I mean I would certainly not say they’ve not done anything. FTFT and AFUT are wonderful albums. This is just shit. I think they can make good music with the lineup they have. But just this sound is godawful. Do something else (anything else)

Pink Floyd is actually a wild take considering their debut is the best thing they've ever done!
