The drought is over! Galen and Alex are back talking music.
For this return episode, Katie Metz joins us as leap into the middle of an active discography and do a full breakdown of Boxer, the seminal 2007 album by The National. A natural sonic and lyrical expansion from 2005's Alligator, Boxer made many "Best Of" album lists for the 2000s and still maintains a fascinating aura today. We talk about our favorite parts of the album and how it fits into the canon, going through the whole thing song-by-song.
