The National - Sleep Well Beast (Vinyl 2LP White)
White Vinyl • 2LP • Gatefold • Fold-Out Poster
‘Day I Die’ kicks the drums into gear and doesn’t let up. ‘Walk It Back’ slows to a hypnotic electronic pulse. ‘The System Only Dreams In Total Darkness’ runs on a steely riff and breaks into the band’s first proper guitar solo. Then ‘Turtleneck’ blows the doors off: distorted guitars, a shouted vocal, another solo. ‘I’ll Still Destroy You’ starts on rippling synths and skittering drums, then builds until the percussion takes over. The title track closes on electronic drum patterns and six and a half minutes of murmur.

About the album.
Sleep Well Beast is the seventh album from The National, an indie rock record released on 4AD on 8 September 2017 that won the band their first Grammy for Best Alternative Music Album.
Produced by Aaron Dessner with Bryce Dessner and Matt Berninger, it was made largely at Long Pond, the studio Aaron built in New York’s Hudson Valley, and mixed by Peter Katis. Late in the process, the band recorded Bryce’s orchestrations with an orchestra in Paris, continuing their move toward vaster, more textured soundscapes.
It became the band’s first number one album in the UK, also topping the charts in Canada and Ireland and reaching number two in the US. Lead single ‘The System Only Dreams In Total Darkness’ was followed by ‘Guilty Party’, and the packaging, art directed by Pentagram, earned its own Grammy nomination.
This edition spreads the twelve tracks across two white vinyl LPs in a gatefold sleeve, with a large fold-out poster and printed inner sleeves, mastered at Sterling Sound.
It was the band’s third album for 4AD, following High Violet and Trouble Will Find Me. For the earlier records that built their following, go back to Alligator and Boxer.
