The National
 

New album comes out on Friday. I've been a huge fan since the early 2000s. Every time I hear their old stuff it's like the song has taken on new meaning with time. They become more than just an interesting beat, or an exciting new release. It's like I am opening up old time capsules and remembering my emotions in the early 2000s.

They released a few singles and my favorite so far is Eucalyptus. It's about a couple splitting up their possessions after a breakup - like, 'what about the cowboy junkies? What about the Afghan Wigs?' It’s about all those little things you end up having to think about when you’ve become so connected to someone.

I am keeping the Afghan Wigs :)

I hope there are other National fans out there.

The Saddest Band in the world

Yes. A group of Sad Dads. I still love the lyrics and soundscapes.
