The National by Josh Goleman
The National are building up to their ninth studio album.
“To me the line, ‘I keep what I can of you’, means something about everyone I’ve ever known or loved,” Aaron Dessner has said after The National released the latest single from their forthcoming new album First Two Pages of Frankenstein.
“There’s a simplicity to New Order T-Shirt that reminds me of our earlier records, but with the full maturity and experience we have now. It feels like a really important song for the future of our band.”
Due out on April 28th, the band’s ninth studio record was self-produced at Long Pond Studios in New York and will feature guest appearances from Taylor Swift, Phoebe Bridgers and Sufjan Stevens.
Lengthy North American and European touring will follow, beginning in the spring.
