Seriously though, it's for a good cause and it will obviously be a pretty cool/weird collector's item. And it looks nice.
I can imagine people buying this.

it may look good but the content is the stupidest thing i've ever heard a band putting out. looking at the video, matt is just mumbling thru the words and the band doesn't give a shit either. they put more effort into their clothes than playing and i dont blame them. 6 hours of the same song over and over is just ridiculous, regardless of the reason.

Imagine the reaction here if PJ release something like this.
" Please enjoy all the times they did The Fixer at the Target video shoot"

Over 6 hours there is the chance that Ed would get the lyrics right at least once. Or we could edit together a flub free version.

This is why we can't have nice threads about other bands.

The National have begun work on a new album
With the announcement of Matt Berninger’s new project EL VY, not to mention the countless producing gigs the Dessner brothers constantly find themselves involved in, it might seem like a new National album is a ways away. Not true, says Berninger.
In an interview with NME, The National frontman revealed that the band has begun writing their seventh studio album. “We did a camp out retreat in New York a couple of months ago, and we’re having another one in LA in a few weeks. We have 30 sketches of songs so far,” Berninger said of the progress so far.
Berninger added that the band is using names of various towns in upstate New York as working titles for their songs. Which makes sense considering The National are really the only band capable of soundtracking the depressing existence that is living in Syracuse, New York. (Go ‘Cuse!)
The National’s last album came in the form of 2013’s Trouble Will Find Me. Revisit Michael Roffman’s cover story on the creation of the album.

I see they're playing Apsen at the end of December for about $150-$400 a pop.

Yeah, which means this album is going to be disappointing.

Their two best albums are their last two probably. That being said Boxer is great. Just a great band.
If you don't tear up to at least one of their songs you might not have a soul.

Every album (except the first) is nearly perfect.
