Those chaps at Pitchfork uploaded a video from the US chat show Late Night with Jimmy Fallon featuring The National performing the opening track to the new LP, Terrible Love, and it sounds as if High Violet is going to build on the stellar Boxer.
It’s typical god-like stuff from arguably one of the greatest bands around today. It flourishes into a stirring anthem, hopefully setting the pace for the rest of the album.
Seeing them close the John Peel Stage at Glastonbury 2008 was zen-like stuff.
Here’s the performance for you to enjoy:
The National Debuts
The only downside to The National is the uncanny likeness drummer Brian Dessner has to John Lennon.
Schmickles!
