insert contradictory personal best albums list comment HERE. but seriously, that National album sucks. a lot.
"This is the epitome of what went wrong with 'indie' in the 90s." dude, what does that even mean? what "indie" and what "90s" do you think you're referring to? there was a sh*t ton of great indie in the 90s that does not fall under your frayed blanket statement. and why do you keep putting "indie" in quotations liking you're talking about "chillwave" or "folk punk"? you're the worst kind of music fan. you literally have no point other than to wanderer aimlessly around a moving target of a point to express your disdain for a particular band in a space where you're not really welcome--which you did in your first sentence. next time, stop trolling there. don't try and type intelligibly about music genres in other decades.
congratulations, that is the dumbest f*cking comment i have ever read on music article.
this new Erasure sounds great.
this new M83 sounds great.
while Head Music does suck, but not including "She's In Fashion" is highly debatable.
or a bad list based on a flawed premise. different, but the same.
Murder Me Rachael is better than anything on High Violet. Alligator could be the entire list. Heck, All The Wine could be on this list three times on its own. Boxer is entirely misrepresented. I think you went out of your way to pick the songs that annoy long time National fans, just to generate an onslaught of comments... dammit. You win.
this could not be further from the ten best National songs. listen to something other than High Violet.
