The National - Boxer LP Vinyl Record (Yellow Vinyl)

The National's fourth studio album, Boxer hones in even more precisely and intimately on the heartfelt sound of the band. With punchy-yet-polished production and orchestration, emotional lyricism and drony guitar sounds, Boxer offers a warm, deep and lush listening experience that has given fans much to love with over the years. 

Boxer has their same slow-burning intensity, built from glistening piano lines and big rock guitar chords and the murmuring deep tones of Matt Berninger’s voice.  Yet though these songs are instantly accessible, they are also unusually layered and complex.  Take “Fake Empire”, it begins in a flourish of piano notes, and Berninger dropping casual observations about picking apples and lacing lemonade, and builds from there.  There’s a tempo change, then crazily intense mid-section with brass point and counterpoint and fractious joyful drums.  Not every band could even get this down on tape, but the National makes it sound natural and unforced.

Pressed on Yellow Vinyl.
