Yes Clumsee, I have a thesis in favor of that song in the HV thread that I repost/direct people to every now and then lol. It’s my favorite album of all time so I tend to go off in defense of it lol. I get and respect why the murkiness can be offputting though.

I mean it's still a 5 lol
They're best will probably always be Boxer for me

not big on Sorrow or Anyone's Ghost but it's a great album overall. Definitely has some of their best stuff (Bloodbuzz, England, Afraid of Everyone)

“Anyone’s Ghost” was the first National song I loved.

Not big on Sorrow or Vanderlyle tbh
Anyone's Ghost is amazing

Sorrow is only good when they play it for six hours in a row.

Album Rating: 3.5

I actually watched like half of that performance



was lots of fun & drinking

Album Rating: 3.5

Why did they pick the worst song on the album to drag out for 6 hours though

Revolting take, ye

Late to the party, but anyone hating on Sorrow should probably collect their things from this band's universe and gtfo with immediate effect

Agree, Sorrow is in their future best-of compilation which could be entitled something like... Songs I Should Have Left Her With.

Trouble Will Find Me, Hard To Find, I Am Easy To Find.

This band needs to lay off the hide-n-seek shit.
