🎵 I Am Easy to Find (The National)
With a cast of female vocalists guiding and redirecting the songs, the National’s eighth album is their largest, longest, and most daring.
I Am Easy to Find is both an album and a film. Where Sleep Well Beast flagged something of a change through their collaboration with Mouse on Mars, the addition of different voices in this album allows the music to explore different characters. different roles within the music. One of the hardest things I found was that I went into the album expecting something. I remember having a similar experience with Radiohead when they released Kid A/Amnesiac. This album started offereing more once I stopped trying to hear what was not there. Mike Mills, Matt Berninger Aaron Dessner also provided a track-by-track reflection of the album.
