Boxer

I listened to The National's new album Boxer today, good stuff. I was a little worried that it wouldn't hold up after an album like Alligator but I'm definitely into this album. It's energy is a bit toned down but it sounds great and the lyrics hit home. By now you've probably heard Fake Empire so i'll leave you with two more tracks that struck me.

Download - The National - Brainy
Download - The National - Start a War

I agree with you. It's the best album I've heard this year.

Good choice on the tracks too.

By the way, they are coming to Montreal in early June. I think I'm going up for the show if you're interested.
