The National

Rome

£44.99

Released: 13th December 2024. 'Rome' is the definitive live document of The National. Recorded live (without overdubs) on June 3, 2024 at the architecturally stunning venue Parco Della Musica Ennio Morricone, named for the famed Italian film composer, the 21-track LP showcases scintillating versions of beloved songs like 'Bloodbuzz Ohio', 'Don't Swallow the Cap', 'I Need My Girl', 'The System Only Dreams in Total Darkness', 'England' and 'Fake Empire'; plus sharpened readings of recent tracks 'Eucalyptus', 'New Order T-Shirt', 'Tropic Morning News' and the boundary pushing 'Smoke Detector'. The double album, mixed by longtime collaborator Peter Katis, spans the band's 20-plus years of songwriting and reveals how each song has taken on a new life in its live performance. 'You have to see this band live' is often said about The National, and now, 'Rome' is the next best thing to actually being there.
