Cherry Tree

Ever hear a band that has been around for a while and think: "How have I not heard about these guys!" That's the case with The National. Imagine Leonard Cohen's love child forms a band, that's the sound of singer Matt Berninger, supported by a band that knows how to create just the right accompaniment to his haunting poetry. I bought their latest, then within a week bought the rest of their catalog. I just play them all on shuffle and they flow together seamlessly, carrying you along in every emotion under the sun.

this band can do no wrong in my eyes.... took me a long time to buy this particular offering, but I am so glad I did. They are one of my all time favorite bands, along with REM, STP and Dylan. I have eclectic taste to be sure...but Matt Beringer has has vocals like no other and I love his songs...

Such a good record. Tracks like Wasp Nest, Cherry Tree, All The Wine and the great About Today make it one of the best EPs ever. Add a great rendition of Murder Me Rachel and it's a must have for any music fan.

I love this band. Smooth mellow music I can listen to over and over again. Highly recommend. If you like Augustines, I think you will like The National.

This EP is a nice bridge between albums. It contains "Murder Me Rachael" from Sad Songs for Dirty Lovers as well as "All the Wine" from Alligator. The last song's a dud, but don't let that stop you National fans from purchasing this album as most of the stuff starts to sound like what ended up becoming Alligator.

Product came earlier than the time in which it was said. Great quality and great music. I love listening to it. The addition of the violin in many of the songs adds to this EP.

Great Album

its a great record from a great band that I, as a collector, am joinning all the performances live and studios, and have a lot of good surprises at the first time!!!

Un capolavoro musicale che cattura l'essenza della melancolia e dell'introspezione in modo straordinario. Con una combinazione di testi profondi e arrangiamenti musicali coinvolgenti, questo album si distingue come un punto di riferimento nella discografia della band.Fin dalla prima traccia, si può percepire l'atmosfera unica che i The National sanno creare. Le voci emotive e penetranti di Matt Berninger si fondono perfettamente con le sfumature sonore, trasportando l'ascoltatore in un viaggio attraverso emozioni complesse. Brani come "About Today" e "Cherry Tree" dimostrano la capacità della band di trasmettere tristezza e riflessione in modo commovente.

Christmas gift.

dieses Album ist zwar recht kurz, aber hat es auch in sich (wie alles von The National). Einprägsame Songs. Ich kann es als schöne Ergänzung zu den normal langen Alben empfehlen.

First bought, trouble will find me,just from liking the album cover.never heard a note of theirs before. After that i bought all their music and cherry tree, is my favourite. So sutble, deep, gentle, moving,haunting and complete. the production on this album seems to be the sonic picture that fits this band perfectly. they've found their voice,so to speak. lucky.......It's all very well writing songs that chime within the bands members, but if the recording of those songs doesn't chime, then you've got a wreak. this is sublime.

Vabbè cosa vi devo dire... Sono i The National... Qui nel 2004 poi... Serve altro?!
