Product Description High Purple, the new long recording of the national one, put a nervous, melodic, beautiful songs and explosive, that the band are at the height of their collaboration skills. The music is broad in its humor, alternately intimate and robust, expansive and spare parts, full of angles Stark and the atmosphere. Berninger sings wild, half-broken, a feeling of love calls sneaky, haunted paranoia, reach for something straight. Top Violet, perhaps, the national record of most issues so far twisted, but he even managed their immediate and contagious. . . . More>>

The new album from The National is beautiful. The productions are full and rich, and that is somewhat reminiscent of the Arcade Fire. Stand out tracks for me are “Scary Love” and “Runaway.” There is “much more” lists this year. Love it. Rating: 5.5
I bought this vinyl in my local record store, 7 May, a few days before his release date today. This double album consists of two 180-g (high quality) records, each in its own cardboard sleeve decorated. I have a photo with the contents. The file also contains a digital download 256kbps. A whole matter very well designed, as far as the packaging, although it does not include something extra, like a poster or a CD. But for a double LP, the price of $ 14. I paid 99 marché.Quant music was exceptionally good, I love you. If you like boxing, you love Top Violet. It’s a bit sad, is excellent in all but the sound. You will immediately notice that you love.

The “Purple Top” National takes us on a journey through the eyes of a 30-something protagonist, settle fear of love and magnificence of the suburbs. When the album begins, the narrator is “the march of spiders in a relationship and watched the rabbit hole, it is about to descend. While the album, he feels the pain (pain), anxiety (fear of Everyone), schizophrenia (lemon world), Ret Peaks (Runaway) and sardonic self-reflection (interview 16). Perhaps the end is perfect the next “Vanderlyle Crybaby Geeks,” in which the narrator addresses an awareness of the world, tired, “all the best of us / our strings for Love, “and that somehow, everything will be fine. It is a wild, emotional behavior, but definitely worth it. As with previous versions of the group, you can also find that it takes several Listening are fully aware (I have a stream on NPR my computer for several days now hear). The payoff is the music that does not tire easily. As classical music is to build the last of the national songs and you can enjoy for years after hearing it for the first time Rating: 5.5
This is my favorite album of the year. See article in The New York Times about the decision of the Supreme National Purple. Curiously, the National has started turning to the album before the release. I saw one of their shows in Richmond, which was unusual. Rating: 5.5
If the national Top Purple earlier this year announced that the only logical response was wildly excited about the next album of one of the best bands of the decade. After growth have met with quiet success in their early years, the National Council has taken the music of the Western world by storm, two albums is published in Engineering in two years, countless tours around the world and basically the barn on fire rock band sucked them all together. Between performances were carefully planned and Matt bottle of wine, her show has become somewhat legendary, and the legend has become more secure when you bring on tour started high Violet.Ce us to the music. Top Purple is probably the best album of the National have implemented, and that’s a lot, like Alligator and Boxer were excellent. The reason I feel like Purple Top, a better balance is usually because the above two albums from the lower parts of the song, i. e. boxers suffer and the end of the center of the alligator. Top Violet no discernible weaknesses, with closely written from front to rear. Highlights for me are pain, fear, above all, Bloodbuzz Ohio and Lemon World, which have the sound of a band on the brink of emotional collapse, but shooting is still just over the edge, giving them a chance to s close they come back from another angle. If you thought Alligator and Boxer were anxious and gloomy, you’ll be surprised if you hear the dark waves beneath the surface of solid agreements, high-Violet. Really, a perfect record for a year as singular as 2010, long one of the best years in music. Rating: 5.5
