What you need to know:
The National returned with all this 2023, because in addition to releasing an album, now they present us with two ideal songs to listen to in chipil mood.
It is no secret to anyone that this 2023 has brought us incredible music, since various bands and artists have raffled off releasing songs to impressive records. However, this year we also had long-awaited returns. Among them the one of The National, who are back with a couple of melancholic songs.
As you will remember, it was in 2019 when the Cincinnati band released their eighth record material, I Am Easy To Find. After the promotional tour for this album and in the midst of a pandemic, each of its members did interesting things on their own. Vocalist Matt Berninger released his first solo albumwhile the Dessners collaborated with Taylor Swift herself.
The National has just released two nostalgic songs
However, after almost four years of waiting, this 2023, The National officially returned with the premiere of a true great album called First Two Pages Of Frankenstein. However, despite the fact that this album has only recently been presented to us, this group still has a lot of music to share with us. We say that because They have just released two completely new songs.
The first of these songs is called “Alphabet City”, which has that nostalgic wave of this band that we love so much. Well, in it, Matt Berninger seems to sing with deep pain about a relationship in decline, while a piano and a huge orchestration They accompany the frontman’s voice all the time.
The second song they released is entitled “Space Invader” and is perhaps one of the most interesting in The National’s career.. We say this because in it, in addition to the lyrics that talk to us about the reflections of the whims of fate, the band takes their sound to the next level in seven minutes where they put together a passage of musical construction that really takes its time.
For now, it seems that The National will continue presenting their most recent record material, although it would be incredible if they returned to Mexico for several shows, don’t you think? But while we wait for them to announce a date or something like that in our country and for the melancholy to hit them tasty, Listen to his two new songs below: “Alphabet City” and “Space Invader”.
