Call To Confirm Colored Copies Are Still Available

The National's elegant seventh full-length album Sleep Well Beast follows-up 2013's Trouble Will Find Me and their 2015 Ragnar Kjartansson collaboration A Lot Of Sorrow. Produced by band member Aaron Dessner with co-production by Bryce Dessner and Matt Berninger, the 12-track collection was mixed by Peter Katis and recorded at Aaron's Hudson Valley, New York studio, Long Pond, with additional sessions having taken place in Berlin, Paris and Los Angeles. The album comes preceded by the urgent lead single "The System Only Dreams in Total Darkness" complete with a freewheeling Aaron Dessner guitar solo which sounds heavily influenced by his recent Grateful Dead tribute project Day of the Dead. Pressed on 2 x 12" standard weight colored vinyl LPs with accompanying folded poster and 2 inner sleeves.
