Carter Anderson
Jonathan Brooks
it's great, but since this is mu don't expect a serious conversation about a new National album. Quiet Light and Rylan are as good as anything they've ever done
Aiden Roberts
did it leak? the first single was ok but the second two were very boring
Joseph Gutierrez
it leaked, the singles are easily the worst on the album
Hudson Clark
is it at least better than SWB?
Julian Thompson
i found it boring on first listen but hopefully it’s a grower.
Charles Myers
link? can't find on archive cause brainlet
Landon Russell
it’s on redacted if you have an account on there
might be on kingdom leaks as well
Adam Carter
eh
Kevin Ross
these guys somehow sound even more cringey when they're not depressed as fuck
Luis Davis
I think mu will talk about it since it’s getting so much praise for Matt taking a backseat to female guest vocalists. Surely people will freak about that. Personally that feels a bit “current year gimmicky” to me but like the songs are still good so w/e
James Phillips
bump
Elijah Garcia
I'll listen to it when I get to my home. Is Rylan as good as the version they did in Kexp?
Also, we all can agree that the best albums are alligator and boxer right?
Luis Gomez
fuck it just sounds so samey
John Williams
Haven't listened to the full album but I watched the short film. The music was great, but I can't say the same for the actual film which was incredibly middle-of-the-road and forgettable.
Nathan Campbell
do you not have a heart?
William Myers
don't get me wrong, I've been moved by many films and albums before but this film, while I see why people would connect with it more than I did, didn't do much for me
Thomas Lopez
not listening to any album with that shit art.
Ian Myers
what
Hudson Lopez
Rylan is even better, though it's...a tad different from that version (which i also thought was great).
Boxer and Alligator are amazing, but i can't disregard Sleep Well Beast.
