It takes an ocean not to break. The National debuted "Terrible Love" on Fallon this week and The D Man is thrilled with the sound of another anthemic breakdown of brooding post-rock and mega-chorus brilliance. The band's fifth album, High Violet, does not hit record stores until May, but The D Man is excited about everything he is seeing and hearing. The album cover takes a decidedly In Rainbows-esque turn to something brighter and more magnanimous than the band's previous (albeit superlative) artwork. And if the band's pulsing energy on display with "Terrible Love" is any indication of the album's thrust, we are in for a treat.

This sounds fantastic. I picked up "The Boxer" today, my first album from The National. Hoping for the best.
Boxer is a flawless album. Enjoy.
It is indeed. I've been listening to it all weekend.
