Disagree. I like that song a lot.

Quiet Light came up on random on the way in to work the other morning, hit me good; always enjoyed the tune but really feel it could stretch toward some About Today gravitas live, the sentiment is palpable and the music is there.

I like a lot of their stuff but Quiet Light is my favourite National tune by far. Absolutely flawless and utterly arresting.
