The National - Sleep Well Beast (September 8, 2017) Album • Page 65

I still listen to this constantly honestly. Tied with High Violet for my 2nd favorite after TWFM.

I've gained a new appreciation for Alligator recently. The Geese of Beverly Road found its way into my top 10 favorite songs by them. Mr. November too of course

 

Any of the last six could be my favorite on a different day. This is one the best late night albums i know of. It goes from in the pack to my favorite depending on the time of day lol

 

City middle will always be my favorite national song

 

trouble will find me is my fav national record but also the imaginary version of alligator with better production that only exists in my head is my favorite national record

 

last night @dadbolt asked my my fav National song on PSN and we both came to the conclusion that its hard af to pick just one

gun to my head i gotta say Conversation 16

 

If I had to pick one without naming any other contenders, I'll probably go with England.

 

Alligator sounds great and I will not stand for any discourse about it

 

Yah Alligator’s production is part of its charm, don’t want it to sound like Boxer

 

Definitely in my top 5. One of their best hooks for sure.

So excited to see them live. I saw them at the first Eaux Claires but I was just a very casual fan at that point.

 

honestly the back half of HV is pretty untouchable imo

 

I can't tell you how many times I had to look at that post and thought to myself "What the fuck is PSN? That's not a National album."

Anyway, About Today is my favorite song

 

Also Lucky You is a god tier song. SSFDL isn't outstanding all the way through but i fucking love that song

 

About Today still gets to me every time I listen.

 

playstation network lol my bad

 

I FIGURED IT OUT I'M NOT STUPID KENNETH GOSH

 

It’s always changing but Ada and Pink Rabbits are probably my top two right now

 

city middle forever and always

 

fucking goosebumps everytime Matts backing vocals do the "da da da dada da da da dada" during the second half

 

its the best melody ive ever heard in my entire life

 

Yeah man 8.0 totally soured on them no WAY they could play their festival

 

I mean Pink Rabbits is the best song ever written not named "re:stacks" so yeah

 

City Middle is another really great choice and was my favorite for a long time when I used to be super into Alligator.

 

Rotating pick of any of the last 3 songs on Alligator for #1

 

It's impossible to choose.

Some of the correct answers include Day I Die, Wasp Nest and Ada.

 

Sad Songs - Cardinal Song
Alligator - Secret Meeting
Boxer - Fake Empire (but Squalor Victoria live)
High Violet - Terrible Love
Trouble Will Find Me - I Should Live in Salt
Sleep Well Beast - Guilty Party

Band writes a hell of an opener, I guess.
