The National: teaser clip for Boxer album
- Artists:
- The National »
Ahead of the release of Boxer, through Beggars Banquet on May 21, DiS is pleased to present to you a teaser clip of a forthcoming documentary on The National.
The band's new single, 'Mistaken For Strangers', is out now.
The clip below is filmed by French director Vincent Moon. Yes, it is. Really. Check it:
Good, yes? No? What? The National, since you didn't ask, play a Fopp instore on May 21. That's the same Fopp that DiS puts nights on in, on Tottenham Court Road, London. Wristbands are available from 9am on the day of the show, with the band due on at 6pm.
I've been a bit cheeky
and somehow have had the album for almost a month now.
It's amazing though, and I shall not only buy a copy for myself, but one for all my friends. It should go some way to redressing the karmic balance...
i really can't wait for this album :D
..probs the album i'm anticipating the most this year (bar a radiohead release of course :P)
But also, yeah
I am buying the shit out of this album, and refuse to listen to anything from it until I have bought it.
is there
time to see these guys at Fopp then run across town to Scout Nibblet ?
this sounds/looks good
very good indeed. i can't wait any longer for 'boxer'
try
i'd love to comment except my quicktime doesnt like working :S:S
can't believe..
they're playing the Sugarmill on july 10th, tis gonna be amazing...
Score another one for Sophomore Slump
Sorry, this is boring. Arctics, Clap yr Hands, etc. Happens to a lot of bands. 2nd record sounds like the first, but lacks memorable tunosity.
I'm sure this will be hailed as classic upon its official release. I'm equally sure that it will seldom be mentioned again. Destined for Sevenville, and then oblivion.
Sophomore?
It's actually their 4th album.
The National - Sad Songs For Dirty Lovers - Alligator - Boxer.
There's also the Cherry Tree mini album between the 2nd and 3rd.

Too Pure and Beggars Banquet go the way of all things as 4AD expands
