Play Button   “Cardinal Song” on Sad Songs for Dirty Lovers by The National
very nice album - singer reminds me of Tom Waits, but there's also a more contemporary alt-country vibe going on with the band.

Play Button   “Fake Empire” on Boxer by The National
great song that'll really grow on you if you listen to it enough times. love the deep vocals and the way the band plays around with the time. the horns in the end have an interesting contrapuntal thing going on too.

Play Button   “Secret Meeting (remix)” on Secret Meeting by The National
Interesting take on a great, great song. Some different instrumentation in there, but keeps the structure and feel (for the most part) of the original.
