Bloodbuzz Ohio by The National (7008 KB)
Listen on posterous
The National made the front page on the New York Times online because they allowed fans to listen to their whole album on the page. The album was leaked early and after listening to it, I'm not surprised it was.
The album is actually the first I've heard from The National. This being their fifth studio album, it's a great work put together.
The National sounds like a mix of modern post punk revival and experimental rock. The vocals remind me a little of Ian Astbury and Joy Division's Ian Curtis. The release of this album is again a push for a growing range of post punk revival music toward a mainstream audience. This is an album that does a good round in every area, the vocals, instrumentation, and genre definition.
Check out the official single included, "Bloodbuzz Ohio."
