Our take

"The debut from this Ohio (via Brooklyn) indie rock band is subtly more country-flavored than their later work."

“Some of the best lyrics ever written. This song will constantly return to you as you despondently toil in the unlit basement of some major corporate machine. Don't let that be a turn off. It's a beautiful beautiful song.”

“Wait a minute.. Slow Show on the new National latest release "The Boxer" got the same lyrics. Great to see how this band have evolved. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yZDl2xRK_r8 ”

“The nearly spoken word of the vocals makes this song just edgy enough so that you can tap your foot to the beat and still feel really cool for listening to a indie pop song.”
