Eric's Music Ramblings and Indie Musings: The National - High Violet

The National - High Violet

Go to spectrumculture.com and take the reast of the top 20 list.The National reportedly intended to get an optimistic, catchy record as their follow-up to Boxer. Instead, this year's High Violet was every bit as black as its predecessor. It also ended up every bit as good; indeed, one is hard-pressed to place the album's premier song because nearly all of them are just that damn great.

High Violet

Review by S.G.R. Black for High VioletRating: Violet` because I felt if I tried to publish anything meaningful or even try to publish an objective review I thinking I knew what I was talk about, I would have failed miserably while doing a serious injustice to the album. I have owned `High Violet` for months now, and just now I can rightly say that `High Violet` is seriously one of the best albums released in the final ten years.
