The National just played a brand new song on Late Night With Jimmy Fallon called Terrible Love. It’s going to be the opening track on High Violet, and what a perfect choice. It’s a brilliant song that builds and builds until the song explodes to emotional heights. It’s pretty immense.
Jimmy Fallon already has the performance on their site, so if you missed it, we already have it for you to watch:
You can grab some of the promised goodies right now at HighViolet.com. There are videos showing some small clips of studio sessions. We get a small glimpse of new songs, but they are so short that you can hardly call them teasers. There are also 3 photos. One of which looks like the High Violet album art (which is posted above!). The other two look like the tracklisting for the album, but look closely and they are different. The people on the All The Wine forums are saying it shows the same songs just with the amendments that they made to them over time. Pretty cool documents eh?
