The National To Take A Year Out, Could Return With 'Raw' Album

Friday, 08 November 2013 Written by Elliott Batte

The National have revealed that they’ll be taking a year-long break before they return with a new album. The Cincinnati outfit released their sixth studio album, ‘Trouble Will Find Me’, back in May, hitting #3 in the UK and their native US.

The band have a handful of UK dates lined up for November, but once they have wrapped up touring on the record they'll take some time away from the band before regrouping to record a new album. Guitarist Aaron Dessner told NME:

“We're actually thinking for the next album we make a very raw, un-produced simple record, that nobody will like! We've talked about [our next LP]. I'm sure that once we've done touring we'll take at least a year away from the band, but I think that we're also excited about an idea - like, everyone seems interested in making an album a different way.

“It might mean a more louder, more live record that is less produced and more, just like, raw and shredding.”
