Product description

This LP was released in 2023.

The National's latest offering, First Two Pages of Frankenstein, is a masterfully crafted indie rock album that showcases the band's ability to weave intricate narratives and sonic landscapes. Released on 28 April 2023 via 4AD, this 47-minute journey features a range of captivating tracks, including the poignant 'Once Upon A Poolside' featuring Sufjan Stevens, and the haunting 'This Isn't Helping' and 'Your Mind Is Not Your Friend', both of which boast collaborations with the talented Phoebe Bridgers.

The album also boasts an impressive appearance by Taylor Swift on 'The Alcott', adding a new dimension to The National's distinctive sound. From the upbeat 'New Order T-Shirt' to the melancholic 'Grease In Your Hair', each track on First Two Pages of Frankenstein demonstrates the band's skill in crafting songs that are both deeply personal and universally relatable.

With their signature brooding intensity and poetic lyrics, The National have created an album that is at once a testament to their musical prowess and a deeply human exploration of the complexities of life. First Two Pages of Frankenstein is a must-listen for fans of indie rock and anyone drawn to The National's unique sound.

Whether a review is positive, negative, or neutral, we always publish it. However, we screen every review to ensure it is authentic and free of profanity. These checks happen automatically, though a human occasionally steps in. We never pay for reviews.

  • Side B Quality Issues

    4 out of 5 stars
    ebazxerDecember 9, 2025United States🇺🇸

    Side B of the first track has non-fill problems. Apart from that, it's a pretty good pressing.

  • Side A Flaws

    3 out of 5 stars
    osus.veyvizwaozNovember 4, 2025United States🇺🇸

    There's a bit of a bend on side A. Some parts get a bit fuzzy. Really wished it was a 2xLP. Doesn't quite match up to their newer album.

  • Quick Pressing Sound Review

    qihvfbzefeOctober 8, 2025United States🇺🇸

    Has anyone got a quick review of how this pressing sounds?

  • Music Shines Despite Flaws

    3 out of 5 stars
    Fotit58September 26, 2025United States🇺🇸

    Mine isn't exactly fantastic. There's a fair amount of "non fill" with pops and clicks all over. Even after I gave it a good clean. But hey, the music's top-notch.

  • Disappointing Record Quality

    1 out of 5 stars
    SmqusefqSeptember 20, 2025United States🇺🇸

    This record of mine sounds awful, and I'm gonna try sending it back. It's like I'm making popcorn with all the crackling in this one. Yeah, I cleaned it twice with a spin clean. Did a detergent wash and a water rinse both times. Played other records cleaned the same way, same batch, and they sound great. What a bummer.
