Things from Cincinnati: WKRP, Ken Griffey Jr., Skyline chili, and... The National. Eschewing the relationship-laden lyrics of Boxer for more normal, moderate anxiety-focused lyrics that fit perfectly with the current times, High Violet by The National ($8) is yet another winner from the OH-based band. Sonically, it's more of the same, but with guest spots from Justin Vernon of Bon Iver and Sufjan Stevens, as well as a shout out to a Fyodor Dostoyevsky novel, there's more than enough here to keep your ears happy.
