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.

Next volume of Cherry Tree vinyl shipping soon! (Last year, they sent the shipping preview Iw any to say 3-4 weeks before it actually shipped.)

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

i need my girl (live) is the national equivalent of betterman (live)

i'll probably end up ordering that cherry tree LP.
