Finally finished this; it's a great watch, particularly if you're a Sleep Well Beast fan. I wore the record out when it first came out, so I haven't revisited it much in a while, but hearing it in this setting is pretty amazing. |

New song sounds great. Has some of the vibe that I've personally been missing from recent Nash albums. |

Revisited the last record for the first time in a little while, I think that still hovers right under the Alligator/Boxer 1-2 punch as my favorite National record. I'm surprised that it seems like it's had a more mixed reaction than most of their other work; it's a bit ungainly at moments, but it's got such good songwriting, and manages to push at the band's sounds in ways that were unexpected. |

I listened to it again yesterday and still think it might be their best. It's in the conversation for sure. |

Start A War might be my favorite, followed by Fake Empire and Mistaken... |

Boxer is great, and it's what really got me into them. However, I go back and forth about Alligator or Trouble Will Find Me being their best album. It's those two that I choose to listen to the most. |

I like Alligator, but I don't think that it's aged well at all. This is especially true when compared against each new The National album that, to me at least, is better than that output. |

I just don't think that one is better than Sleep Well Beast. I don't think SWB is better than TWFM either, but it is better than IAETF. |
