I like this track. I am however hoping that the entire album, Suck it and See to be released in October, has more energy that this single does. I would like to see them get back to their debut album Whatever People Say I Am, That's What I'm Not. I suppose it's not likely though and I may have to learn to love the more toned down Arctic Monkeys

their debut album was brilliant, then they went down hill fast....cant believe its taken so long to be released over there, feels like its been out for months here....and i heard it but didnt like it

THE NATIONAL - HIGH VIOLET

THE NATIONAL - HIGH VIOLET (2010)

Matt Berninger is the highlight of this group, singing in a baritone folk rock indie voice and writing all of this incredible band's songs. His vocals are somewhat reminiscent of a toned down version of the late Peter Steele , leader of the goth metal American band Type O Negative.

This is their fifth studio album for the indie band from Cincinnati, Ohio now based in Brooklyn, N.Y. The album was recorded in Brooklyn in their own studio. I find that all of the songs are very good and the tracks evoke a down tempo sound that I haven't heard before. I love this album ! I will be researching their back catalogue for sure !
