Another new film released

 

If you're a fan of SWB this is an essential listen. Watched it live last night, first time it's ever been shown (except for the odd song here and there). Really fantastic versions of songs with a lot more instrumentations. It's SWB in full, there's also Mr November, Terrible Love and Fake Empire at the end.

Hey all! I've been on this forum for 10 years now, and mostly a lurker but also a member of the resale club for the past 2 years after 7 successful glastonbury's!

I hope you don't mind me posting this, but my band is often compared a lot to The National (and Nick Cave). We're independent and trying to get our name out there and I figured that people of this thread might enjoy our music We've got a few singles up on spotify now, but I reckon our debut single 'What A World' would be most up your street!

 

Let me know what you think!

Sounds good! Please post any new ones here when they come along.

High Violet turned 10 today. I've just got into bed and put it on so I can appreciate it. 

Fingers crossed they play those Brixton shows one day, when this is all over.

And fingers crossed it won't clash with Primavera again!

Watching their live streams every Monday is really making it hurt all the more that it's going to be such a long time until I see them again.

They've announced shows for Europe at the same time next year, so I imagine it'll get rolled over.

The Other stage headline dream lives on.

But they're working on rescheduling every single date of their 2020 tour, it seems. Good news.

Can’t get enough of this - much better than I had hoped for. 
Seems like this could be a return to the ‘classic’ National sound.

Oh awesome, isn't clashing with anything this time! 

[1986]

London dates are still sold out on their website. Might be a resale sitch going on.

Ah I always wanted to see that performance but seems it's s been removed

[RarerThanDandyB]

Which show is which date, swear they were doing two different ones on each Brixton date?

[RarerThanDandyB]

If you wanna go to the second date on the 26th, theres one ticket left in the unreserved circle on Ticketmaster.

I'm not sure if anyone else has seen this but some people on twitter have decided that Aaron Dessner's been inciting riots in America based on a video that definitely isn't him and now he's getting a lot of abuse over it.

Just been reading about this. So weird.

To be fair the guy in the video did look just like him.

High Violet comms has been dropped from all the Best Kept Secret announced - so I'm guessing that one has been knocked on the head

11 years anniversary doesnt have quite the same ring to it.

Tempted to drag the fiancé to BKS for the day. Course if I buy a ticket they'll be announced for Glastonbury.
