I know that I posted a recommended on this record once already, but I cannot seem to tear myself away from this latest release from The National. Checking the tour agenda and the updates, I keep thinking that these guys are going to make their way to Austin, or even Texas before their stint at the 2007 ACL Festival, but to no avail at this point. I’m just about curious enough to make a special trip to catch these guys in a more intimate setting than what is going to be provided at the festival.

If you don’t own the record, go out and buy it. You people still pay for your music these days, don’t you??
