The National (4 Viewers)

[Pedronimus]

I saw them in d'Olympia a year or two ago and thought they were great. I'm pretty sure all their albums will end up sounding the same but I like them anyway. Two Thumbs Up.

man from the national: ooh, i'm such a jaded post 9/11 white collar american male. feel my pain and have sex with me interesting ladies.

edit: i like them when i'm listening to them. when i'm not listening to them they really bug me. oh, and they're shit live

Although im not enjoying their new album that much, the singer is starting to get on my proverbial tits, i do like this band alot.

was thinking the same

 

[thusspokez]

To be fair their violet coloured vinyl looks great.

 

[underground]

Bloody boring.

I really don't see the appeal of these guys. They sound like all the worst bits of Tindersticks, Echo and the Bunnymen and Arcade Fire.

Bluster.

a subtle band which some people might mistake for boring

Saw them on Jools Holland last Friday. Didn't do anything to increase my appreciation ...

 

[underground]

i once saw the verve on jools and thought they were great

I saw Gorillaz last week and thought they were great. But that could just have been in contrast to the complete dreck they were surrounded with. Or maybe they are great .. I dunno.

they should just get Topper on drums and be done with it

Looks like Gary Pallister there in Topper's place. Nice performance though.

Nope, dissapointed. I'm going to ATP so I could only make the Thursday gig. If anyone hears of a spare standing ticket for the first night I'd appreciate it.
