Two Words, One Answer.
Nationals
 Boxer $9.98 This is by far my favorite album. It literally made me fall in love with music. I do recommend buying it from iTunes though, because they offer two bonus songs, "Blank Slate" and "Santa Clara" which are very good.  The National $13.98 Don't get me wrong, Alligator and Boxer are excellent but this is The National's best album, in my opinion anyway. Openers don't get much better then "Beautiful Head" (okay maybe not better then "I'm trying to break your heart). If you've listened to Boxer, Alligator, or even sad songs.. you might be suprised about how different this one is. Self titled has a much countryisher sound to it then their later work, but the lyrics are obviously The National. From the upbeat twang of "Pay for me" to the absolute rawness of "29 years" and to the romantic feel of "watching you well", this album delivers on every single song, please buy.  BOXER $14.98 This is by far my favorite album. It literally made me fall in love with music. I do recommend buying it from iTunes though, because they offer two bonus songs, "Blank Slate" and "Santa Clara" which are very good. |
