I wouldn't really consider myself a fan of these guys, but this album is quite solid. Mistaken For Strangers is quite possibly the best song that they've done and is something that I can resonate with.

Top 15 Album for me. I think it's beautiful yet melancholic. Probably the best combination when it comes to music!

I really adore this album. This has been honestly one of the more beloved albums for me since I first heard it in about '08. It's just so damn relatable in all it's fucked up, confused, romanticized, addled stories and songs of conflict and loss and all kinda of shit. It makes me feel some really deeply sad and heartfelt emotions.

Almost every song is tops, but "Slow Show" takes the cake. I don't know how many times I let my eyes get misty while listening to that record.

I'll never get this band (until, maybe, I own a three bedroom house and a family-suitable car).

The National is one of very few bands that make music I can connect instantly, it makes me feel a kind of rush you can only describe as a drug. I may spend hours listening to music trying to find this feeling, this crazy feeling I could never describe, and very few times I would be able to reach it. “Boxer” gives me this short moment where everything is clear, just a split of a second where I forget about life for a while. I feel at ease. They act as a sonic pillow to calm me down whenever my thoughts are rushing to my head. Berninger's half-awake mumbling is one of those voices that could soothe anything immediately.
