National, The - High Violet [3LP/ Ltd Ed Purple Vinyl/ 10th Anniversary Expanded Edition]

Triple purple colored vinyl LP pressing. The National release the 10-year anniversary deluxe edition of their 2010 album High Violet. The triple LP package includes a third LP which includes tracks never before available on vinyl.

High Violet by The National, is a nervy, melodic, explosive and beautiful set of songs that find the band at the height of their collaborative powers. The music is wide-ranging in it's moods, by turns intimate and rough, expansive and spare, full of stark angles and atmosphere. Berninger's singing wild, half-broken, sly evokes a feeling of being haunted, by love, by paranoia, by something just out of reach. High Violet may be The National's most thematically twisted record to date but it somehow also manages to be their most infectious and immediate.
