Released a year before The National broke through with their third album Alligator, 2004's Cherry Tree EP is a thrilling record which -thanks to its collection of delicate ballads and anthemic crowd-pleasers -sums up what they do best in under 30 minutes.
Following nearly two years of global touring in support of their adventurous and acclaimed album, The Wilderness (2016), Explosions in the Sky paused on the future to reflect on the past.
The National's second album, Sad Songs For Dirty Lovers (2003) proved a leap forward from 2001's eponymous debut, showing a band adept at delivering warm embraces and gut punches in equal measure.
The debut album from Playboi Carti is an interesting one. Produced mostly by Pi’erre Bourne, this album is full of songs to turn off your brain and have fun to.
