The National Hint at New Music with Abstract Teaser Video
"Sleep Well Beast" and "The System Only Dreams in Total Darkness"
May 09, 2017 The National
The National haven’t released a new album since 2013’s Trouble Will Find Me, although the band’s members have kept busy with various side-projects. A new album is expected sometime this year and now the band have shared a mysterious teaser trailer that hints at new music. It features somewhat distorted black & white images of a city apartment building at night, particularly windows. It is presented as a news broadcast and includes the scrolling phrases “Sleep Well Beast” and “The System Only Dreams in Total Darkness.” Who knows what it all means? Watch it below.
