So based on the album tracklist and the lyrics of the new songs on Youtube (live and early versions) we can assume that:

Roman Candle / Checking Out turned into Walk It Back:

The Lights turned into I’ll Still Destroy You:

 

 

Obviously Turtleneck remain:

and The Day I Die stay as is too:

I'm still struggling to match Find A Way/Iris  and Keep You.

Thanks for posting - had a listen and though the quality is bad it definitely sounds like it'll be a good record. The Day I Die in particular. Although did you mean to post it twice?

Oops.. There was a problem embedding the videos in the morning, maybe I got confused in the process. And yeah, poor quality but its nice to get familiar with the songs. 

This one I think turned to be I'll Still Destroy You:

I think that's the one I like the most but I cant find a match in the tracklist:

 

[Tremousse]

This album could be their best in my opinion... There are flavours of each album in these new songs... I'm very excited.

£38.75 - 45.35 for the Hammersmith Apollo. £45.35 for standing.

That's pretty much what I'd expect these days.

Can we all agree that the new single follows directly from the High Violet times?

It's got some similar themes to the stuff he did with El Vy last year as well 

[Diva Sam]

Jeez, their merch aint the best. I just want a t shirt that says "Sleep Well Beast" on it.

Really like the song, but the "I can't explain it..." bit reminds me a lot of "Dying is easy..." bit of the song Lean and I keep mixing them in my head now.

Is it just me?

Nope, I've been doing that all day!

It's one of these ones where they say you need to preorder it then straight underneath it says you don't so mailing list should be sufficient. 

Edit: first presale seems to be a songkick one, think this is the sign-up link https://thenational.songkick.com/?from=splash&utm_source=songkick&utm_medium=referral&utm_content=e29957419

Sweet! Have you had anything through yet about it? Can't believe how excited I am for this tour and album from being completely indifferent to them a month ago. 

The new tune sounds like it could have been on High Violet.

I got a email about the dates from Songkick earlier but I think that was just a generic one since I'm already on their mailing list, doubt they've sent anything out yet. 

The new song is so good though, really excited about this album.

Lost count the amount of times i've listened to the new track today. I've had such a shit day too and this is just what I needed. I cannot wait to hear it on the Pyramid Stage.

To me it sounds like Trouble Will Find Me vocals over the top of El Vy with a slight Alligator influence.

Oh and I really enjoyed Alligator. At present it's:

Boxer

Alligator

Trouble Will Find Me

Correct!

I can't possibly buy tickets right now. Shame cos the Usher Hall was great last time. I'll have to hope to pick something up for face value closer to the time. Or lurk on the day for a last minute spare.

This including booking fees and that?

[Amy Lawn]

How fast do we reckon Manchester will sell out? I wish I had no kids and three money so I could do both nights, that would be nice.

I think that includes booking fees but not delivery fees. It's on ticketmaster if you want to double check though!

[nikkic]

New single is a #banger

Can not wait to see them at Glasto. 

[adjwholovesmusic]

Forgot how good Alligator is!! This album will be getting some hammer over the next few weeks. 

[Gucci Piggy]

Those tour dates are so perfect. I move down south (Southampton) on either the 23rd or 24th September, and don't start uni until the 28th, and one of the London gigs is on my birthday.

The National. Hammersmith Apollo. 2609. Easy.
