do we have any fans of the brilliant band that is the national?

i for one just can't stop listening.

the albums are fantastic and live they are even more impressive.

I have seen them twice and yes, they are amazing. One of those acts where, despite being really good, the recordings don't do them justice compared to their live performance. I'm a fan.

Not sure if the links on here still work but worth a try

I agree - they are absolutely fantastic live, their recordings don't do them justice!

Alligator is probably my favourite album of the decade as well, so obviously spt knows what he's talking about.

I didn't even know they had other albums until just recently! I will have to seek them out.
