The National have decided that the next single from their album High Violet will be the opening track “Terrible Love” and have therefore made a video for it. The video features several clips of the band on tour over the last year or so. Many live clip videos can be boring or pointless but this one is an exception; I found myself chuckling at several of the clips used and it shows that The National, who are known for gloomy sound and lyrics, are actually a really fun bunch of guys with a good sense of humour.
Check it out below.
The single will be released on 7″ violet vinyl on November 22nd (the same day as the expanded version of the album is released) and will feature the alternate version of “Terrible Love” and “You Were A Kindness” as the b-sides.
