CD Reviews

Amazing, but overpriced.

Marcos F. Hernandez | Chicago, Illinois | 07/28/2007

(5 out of 5 stars)

"If you're here I'll assume you've already purchased Boxer and realize that, though "Mistaken for Strangers" is an amazing song, it hardly characterizes the album. That said, "Santa Clara" levels everything off of Boxer with beautiful, somber glory. "Blank Slate," on the other hand, is a bit more lighthearted than most of the National's current material; in fact, it's a reworking of an old b-side called "Keep it Upstairs" off of the single Abel.

These b-sides perfectly compliment Boxer, but a $16.00 price tag for 2 songs is really misguided. Instead, check out Skin a Night & The Virginia Ep (2pc) (W/CD)! It has a total of 12 b-sides, including the ones from "Mistaken for Strangers," and a movie about the making of the album for only $2 more than this single!"
