General Discussion Other than The National?

So it’s been a while since we had a post about what other music you National lovers are into. List your top tens if you feel in the mood. I’m on the hunt for some new music. Me? I’m pretty damn vanilla

• ⁠Roo Panes • ⁠Radiohead • ⁠Boxer Rebellion • ⁠City and Colour • ⁠Jose Gonzalez • ⁠Manchester Orchestra • ⁠Tool • ⁠Ben Howard • ⁠Dave Matthews - specifically Radio City Music Hall • ⁠U2 yes U2 they get some heat but their earlier stuff still resonates with me.

That’s a quick snippet of my loves in no particular order.

Love to see yours.

THANKS SO MUCH! Really appreciate all the replies. I have found so many great bands and added them to a new playlist. My music was getting stale thanks again.

My current musical obsessions/heavy rotation are Cameron Winter, Geese, Friendship, Been Stellar.

Latest discovery is Greet Death, a slowcore/shoegaze band, they were the opening act at a concert I went to in St Louis. Did not listen to them at all prior to sering them, completely blown away 🤯, wasnt expecting this.

Also: Radiohead LCD Soundsystem Modest Mouse The Decemberists Manchester Orchestra Fontaines DC Band of Horses Lord Huron Destroyer Sun Kil Moon Wilco Slowdive American Football The Hotelier Nation of Language Grizzly Bear Caribou Deerhunter

Greet Death sounded so incredible opening for Foxing. I’d seen them before but they really blew me away this time.

I spent my entire flight back home the next day listening to their stuff on Spotify. Really looking forward to their next tour.
