NotesHigh Violet, the new full-length record by The National, is a nervy, melodic, explosive and beautiful set of songs that find the band at the height of their collaborative powers. The music is wide-ranging in it's moods, by turns intimate and rough, expansive and spare, full of stark angles and atmosphere. Berninger's singing wild, half-broken, sly evokes a feeling of being haunted, by love, by paranoia, by something just out of reach. High Violet may be The National's most thematically twisted record to date but it somehow also manages to be their most infectious and immediate.
One of my very favorite albums ever, definitely one of those “if stranded on a deserted island what 20 records…” kinda thing.
I was excited about having this on vinyl for that warm, fuzzy feeling you get from an actual record, even the little pops and hisses were going to add so much to this experience for me. However, perhaps the quality is too good because there are only approximately three songs per side, so it’s a matter of constantly flipping! I can only guess that the reason for that is because the heavier vinyl and higher quality status equals less songs per side? Just being picky, this is the only fault I have with this vinyl release. OK, it might’ve been nice to have had a lyric sheet included…
