Better with time. I was first drawn to The National after hearing "Bloodbuzz Ohio" on the radio. That was soon followed by "Don't Swallow the Cap". I was hooked at that point and couldn't get enough of those deep baritone vocals and unmistakable drum beats. So like many other reviewers you can imagine my initial disappointment when I first listened to this album. HOWEVER, I have found that a few of my now favorite albums have also disappointed me at first listen. While I have to admit "I am Easy to Find" will probably never be my favorite album by the band I still like it for what it is, and enjoy listening to it. It has the familiarity in songs like "Rylan" and "Lightyears" but I also find myself drawn to the quirky "Where is Her Head". Perhaps like the wine that Matt notoriously consumes in concert it will get better with age.

Missing the Point. Before you criticize the music, watch the short movie with the same name (I Am Easy To Find) by Mike Mills. The music supports that effort or was inspired by the same general idea of it...a woman's life. This album is more like a concept piece around that story. I think it is quite well done.

This is not The National. This was always The National.. I have never loved an album by The National on first listen other than High Violet. These guys put together dynamic albums and it’s hard not to think “but I liked ‘Mr. November,’ what is this crap ‘Fake Empire’ or ‘Start a War?’” The one constant was hauntingly delivered lyrics by Matt. So naturally, he takes a back seat on most of this album to some very talented female vocalists. But what remains constant on this album are the deeply layered compositions, contemplative lyrics, and the same dynamism that makes them interesting to listen to more than a decade after I listened to Boxer and thought “What’s the big deal about these guys?” If you like one flavor of The National, you might not like this album. It isn’t my favorite (yet anyway). But it is a band of accomplished individuals composing thoughtful music that examines the times we live in, just like always. I’d like a little more Matt in all his deep, gravely delivery. But the melodies and rhythms here are mature and complex, often more so than in some of my favorite songs by them. I didn’t love the singles, but on my second (and a halfth?) listen through, I am prepared to love this album. It’s worth the time. And worth the money to go out and buy.

Now that all singles are out and the movie is out.... I didn’t really get You Had Your Soul With You, until I let it play on repeat all day and I heard just how many layers there were to it. My favorite part is the strings section, hands down. As soon as Light Years came out, I was blown away by the gorgeous piano ballet that was playing in my ears. And when Hairpin Turns came out, I was a huuuge fan of the piano. I think this album is one of the best ever. There were many twists and turns that shocked me and I just love it so much. Quiet Light is my favorite.

Oof. A concept album?. Love the band, but this album is ear trash. Will delete and pretend it never happened.

A Brilliant Band at serious risk of ........ Make no mistake! The National are a unique & brilliant band..... However, they are obviously reaching a crtical point after 20 great years: Should they remain in their comfort zone & release riskfree repetition of what they know best OR challenge their collective artistic abilities & their fans? Their progression in their 20 or so years has been nothing short of amazing......from Sad Songs for Dirty Lovers in 2003, to The Boxer to the magnificent High Violet & Trouble Will Find Me, they have delivered where many of their contompariories have failed. However, their 2017 album Sleep Well Beast stalled that brilliant hyperbolic path, and sadly I Am Easy to Find simply delivers more of the same, and without the unique magical feel of songs in High Violet or Trouble Will Find Me. This is still a beautiful album to listen to simply because The National are a great band. Nevertheless, like most other artistic entities, it appears after 20 years they have reached a critical point & must decide if they will try to leave their comfort zone, or risk becoming a yesterday's band with a mere shirinking core fanbase.

Peak of their craft. It is phenomenal to share the journey of this band as they explore new territory with every album, diving deeper and deeper into their interrogation of existence, meaning and the pitfalls and potential of our lives. Each album takes some time to understand - this one is entirely wrapped up with the amazing Mike Mills film, for me watching that unlocked a lot of what is going on in I Am Easy To Find. Good songs resonate for all of us in our different unique journeys, so my own experience may not be the same as yours. But the examination of a life cycle and the timelessness of our individual perception despite time passing really affected me, particular as I share my parents journey into old age and my children’s journey into adulthood. I don’t have a favourite song - they all get to me in the end. I will see The National three times when they are in Melboure in 2020, in the front few rows every night with different friends for a different shared experience each time. Thank you

Yet another triumph. I keep expecting The National to run out of steam. They don't. They keep producing really good music. This particular one is another exceptional album. To my ear it has a lot in common with Sleep well Beast. Hope to see some more Australian tour dates soon.

Disappointing. What a shame. Once a devastating band. Understandably difficult to replicate the heights of Alligator and Boxer (Trouble Will Find Me came close). Sadly, I Am Easy to Find falls well short.

Never stop. I haven’t had an album I haven’t liked yet.
