The first true disk-revelation. The following year, five have left their daily work, making a bet that the strategic long have won. The first glimpse of the same name in 2001 was already very good quality, but there was a substantial bitterness that diminished the final result. Instead Sad Songs centered in the middle of the goal: simple, beautiful compositions, Berninger neo-maudit next door, arrangements measured but great taste. It happened as the perfect stepping between folk-rock and indie, none of the two components overcome the other, and the quality were able to soar without limits.
The first part of the disc is unforgettable: the watercolor Discrete Cardinal Song, the sparkling Slipping husband, country confidential It Never Happened, Murder the obsession of me Rachel, in twenty minutes touch on the details and enjoying the passage of the National harmonic wisdom. Down to an utter astonishment, that Thirsty that evokes many things vintage but ends up not having time literally.
difficult to maintain the superb level, but at the end of the second part is anything but a poor figure. Available smells of new-wave sinewy, Trophy Wife is the more easygoing side of their micro-trends in country-folk, Patterns Of Fairytales is an ecstatic ballad punctuated by brief electrical glitches (isolatissimo episode, I think).
forgettable two-three episodes do not affect the overall quality of the disc, after all. Without making any revolution, indeed, with the greatest discretion, the National had put a spoon important for the radiant career that awaited them, and I hope to continue with the quality they have been able to keep up to date.
