Anyone who has discovered The National recently via High Velvet, I can let you know that all the others are as good. This is, I believe, their second album. My favorite song here is the last one, "Lucky You"--sweet, moving. I also like "Murder me Rachel" and "Available"--the 2 genuine rocking songs on the album. There is not one throwaway song, though--they are all very listenable. Lyrics throughout are really great--and I am definitely not a lyrics person. So if you like High Velvet, this will defitely not disappoint.
