In Rotation 2 : The National - High Violet

The National take a straightforward approach to making quality music.  They don't need to hide their music behind a lot of flash and noise. Instead they let the lyrics and vocals speak for themselves and create songs that are stripped of overproduction.  The result: High Violet has a dark and mysterious romanticism about its sound.  It is a quiet yet powerful record that has a unique voice amongst today's music.

Notable Tracks:
4. "Little Faith"
6. "Bloodbuzz Ohio"
7. "Lemonworld"
8. "Runaway"

A tribute to their Cincinnati roots:
